Gill research ultrasonic anemometers and wind speed sensor

Research Anemometers

The Solent R3 research range of anemometers has been designed with researchers in mind who need to determine fluxes using the eddy covariance technique. The range provides U, V, W and SOS (sonic temperature) outputs, which may be logged using the free Gill WindCom software. All units are served with common electronics and software and may be supplied with accessories that include cables, power supplies and sensor input units (analogue inputs).
