The wind direction sensor is a professional meteorological instrument used to measure horizontal wind direction. It integrates a hall sensor inside. The shell and weather vane is made of aluminum alloy material and uses special mold precision die casting process, featuring small dimension tolerance and high surface accuracy. The sensor internal circuit is protected, which makes the sensor have the properties of high strength, weather resistance, anti-corrosion, and waterproof. The cable connector adopts a corrosion-resistant military plug that ensures the long service life of the product.
A low-inertia wind vane is used to sense the wind direction. When the wind direction changes, the tail wing rotates to drive the axle magnet to rotate through the shaft, thereby obtaining accurate wind direction information. It can detect the 16 azimuths' natural wind directions. This high-cost performance sensor can be widely used in meteorology, ocean, environment, airports, ports, laboratories, industry, agriculture, and transportation.

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- Modbus
- Modbus is an industrial communication protocol used by many meters, sensors, PLCs and automation devices. When a product lists Modbus support, it is generally easier to integrate with existing industrial equipment that speaks the same protocol.
- RS485
- RS485 is a robust differential serial communication standard often used in factories, farms and buildings where cables may be long or electrically noisy, and it can link many devices on a single pair of wires. When a product lists RS485, it can communicate with industrial sensors, meters and control equipment over longer distances than typical hobby serial wiring.
- Tolerance
- Tolerance tells you how far the real resistance value may be from the printed value. A 1% resistor is useful when a circuit needs more predictable behaviour than a looser 5% or 10% part.
