A rugged anemometer designed for outdoor wind speed measurement with a simple analog voltage output. Connect it to any microcontroller's analog input for easy wind speed readings — no complex protocols or libraries required.
Wiring is straightforward: connect the black wire to ground, the brown wire to 7–24V DC power, and read the analog voltage on the blue wire. Output ranges from 0.4V (0 m/s) to 2.0V (32.4 m/s). The weatherproof twist-disconnect connector makes installation and maintenance simple.
