and temperature has been set down in DIN 43760. The term Pt 100 is the basic
value of 100 ohm at 0 o C.
3.1.3 Wind Speed
Temperature measuring range : -30...+70 o C
Measuring element : Pt 100 acc. to DIN 43760
Accuracy : DIN-tolerance 0.3 o at 0 o C
Self-heating error : 0.11 o C/mW
Time constant : 28 s (90%)
(i) Range of Application - The combined wind sensor is designed to record wind
values and to convert these values into electrical signals. The signals can be fed
into a combined indicator which presents the wind velocity in a digital form and
the wind direction in an analog form by means of a luminous diode chain.
The combined wind sensor can be used for velocities ranging from 0.3...40 m/s.
In order to prevent the formation of ice and frost during winter time use, the
sensor is equipped with a electrical heater, which can be regulated with a
thermostat.
The power supply unit supplies the heater with electricity.
(ii) Composition of the Instrument - The instrument consists of the following parts
:
