RM Young Vertical Anemometer

Whether you are conducting a resource assessment campaign or managing an existing site, every stage of successful wind and solar energy projects depends on precise wind speed data. RK Systems offers numerous types of anemometers—including heated and vertical ones—to suit a variety of performance and application needs.

Increasingly, wind farm developers and turbine manufacturers are seeking to understand the vertical component of wind velocity. The RM Young 27106T is a precision air speed measurement instrument designed to meet this need. This dynamic sensor responds specifically to the component of air flow that is parallel to the axis of its rotation.

The RM Young 27106T interfaces with all Symphonie series data loggers. In order to accommodate the output signal of the sensor, your data logger must be equipped with either a Symphonie® SCM Card (SCM #3745, used with SymphoniePLUS3 and older) or a Pro Signal Conditioning Module (P-SCM #9134, used with SymphoniePRO). An HD single-sided 76", 3/4" IPT mounting boom and a two-conductor sensor cable (of appropriate length) are required to mount the sensor to a met tower.
