RNRG Wind Vane

  • Continuous rotation potentiometric wind direction vane Wind resource assessment Meteorological studies Environmental monitoring
  • 360° mechanical, continuous rotation All Symphonie Data Loggers
  • Analog DC voltage from conductive plastic potentiometer, 10K ohms Output signal is a ratiometric voltage
  • Potentiometer linearity within 1% 8° Maximum, 4° Typical
RNRG 200P Wind Vane

The 200P Wind Vane is one of the most widely used wind direction sensors in wind, solar, and meteorological applications worldwide.

Constructed of thermoplastic and stainless steel components, the 200P resists corrosion and features a high strength-to-weight ratio. The 200P is directly connected to a precision conductive plastic potentiometer located in the main body. When a constant DC excitation voltage is applied to the potentiometer, it produces an analog voltage output directly proportional to the wind direction.

The 200P includes a PVC terminal boot for additional protection from the elements.

RNRG IceFree3 Heated Vane

The heated IceFree3 Vane is a proven and reliable solution for measuring wind direction in icing environments.

The IceFree3 Heated Vanes head is directly connected to a 10K ohms conductive plastic potentiometer located in the main body. When a constant DC excitation voltage is applied to the potentiometer, it produces an analog voltage output directly proportional to the wind direction.

The sensors potentiometer linearity is within 1 percent of wind direction, ensuring precise measurements. The signal output is an analog DC voltage. The internal heater is powered by 24 VAC and allows for an operating temperature range of -40C to 80C (-40 F to 176 F). The optional 120/240 VAC to 24 VACTransformer - IceFree3 Sensorsis available to step down 120/240 VAC grid power.

The IceFree3 Heated Vane comes with an 8 m potted cable that can be extended to your desired length usingPower Cable Kit - IceFree3 Sensor 3C, sold separately and available in 10 meter increments up to 90 meters.

Wind Direction Vanes

Wind direction data is an important component of any wind or solar resource assessment campaign, and it is also vital for power performance tests and site monitoring once a project is operational. RNRG offers both heated and unheated wind direction vanes, ensuring access to reliable wind direction data regardless of environmental conditions.

NRG 200M Wind Vane

NRG Systems 200M Wind Direction Vane brings significant upgrades to the proven design of our200P Wind Direction Vane.

NEW IN THE 200M
  • No Dead Band:The 200M has 360 continuous measurement, whereas the 200P has an 8 max. dead band centered on 0.
  • Reduced Sensor Uncertainty:The 200M's sensor uncertainty is 1.6 across virtually its full range, whereas the 200P's sensor uncertainty outside the dead band region is 4.3.
  • Improved Vane Orientation Precision and Repeatability:The 200M's improved mounting system makes it easier to precisely determine sensor orientation once installed on a boom.
  • Firmer Mounting Connection:The 200M's new mounting system enables a firmer connection between the vane and mounting boom, making it less likely that vane orientation will drift over time.
  • Improved Protection Against Water and Dust Ingress:The 200M's bearing and electronics capsules are fully sealed against water and dust ingress, making it less likely that corrosion or dust will damage the sensor over time.
  • Transparent Records of Sensor Response and Quality:Factory calibration certificates with sensor-specific scale and offset values will be available at no extra cost.Download Calibration Report

MAINTAINED FROM THE 200P
  • Proven Aerodynamic Performance and Robustness:The 200M utilizes the same black, UV-stabilized injection molded plastic vane wing and sensor body that the 200P has been proving in the field for decades.
  • Easy Sensor Traceability:Individual unit serialization makes it easier to keep track of your wind vane's unique history and ties it to its sensor-specific slope and offset values determined during the manufacturing process or in a wind tunnel.
  • Easy Compatibility:The 200Ms simple voltage output is compatible with all industry-standard data loggers, including legacy NRG loggers, and is designed to work seamlessly with the NRG SymphoniePRO Data Logger.
  • Low Power Draw:With a current draw of 0.9 to 0.9 to
