Standard Features

The Belfort All Environment Digital Aerovane ® is designed to operate in the toughest operating environments where reliable accurate wind speed and direction measurements are required. Wind Speed is sensed by a proven 3 blade impeller which is mounted to a stainless steel shaft,mounted on sealed ceramic bearings and connected to a high reliability magnetic sensor that provides digital pulse output directly related to rotational speed of the impeller. Wind direction is provided by a large rudder attached to the vane and connected to a magnetic sensor through a sealed ceramic bearing to measure the wind direction (with no dead zone) to an accuracy of 1° (with a 0.35° resolution), the best in the industry.

The large rudder section of the Aerovane assures wind direction accuracy using the proven tail design of the predecessor Belfort series 120 Aerovane. Balanced about its center of rotation with its long cord length (distance from shaft to tail section) and large airfoil tail design the AEDA 140 provides excellent sensitivity to small wind direction changes at low airflow. Made of thermoplastic and mounted to machined aluminum base materials the proven rugged LED design assures accurate readings to 140 mph (62.6 m/s) (122Kts).

The AEDA 140 is available with thermostatically controlled heaters to prevent freezing during icing conditions to temperatures of 14° F (-10° C).
