DS2 Sonic Anemometer

Wind speed and direction are fundamental measurements necessary for a wide range of agricultural, forestry, and micrometeorological applications. The DS-2 was designed to put the accuracy and low maintenance benefits of sonic anemometers in a sensor built specifically for these applications. 

The DS-2 is not intended as a replacement for the high-end three dimensional sonic anemometers used by micrometeorologists. It is designed to provide agricultural and environmental researchers a high accuracy, low maintenance solution for measuring horizontal wind speed and direction.

DS2 Sonic Anemometer features: 

• A lower wind speed threshold of 0 m/s makes the DS-2 especially well-suited for measuring wind within plant canopies, where wind speeds are often below the threshold of a cup anemometer
• With a resolution of 0.01 m/s, the DS-2 is capable of recording fine-scale variations in wind speeds within and above plant canopies
• Designed for long-term, maintenance-free operation. No moving parts means no mechanical wear and no need for oiling or replacing bearings
• Uses ultrasonic sound waves to measure wind velocity and direction. Because this measurement comes from first principles, the DS-2 doesn’t ever need to be calibrated once it leaves the factory.
• Requires 100 to 1000 times less power than other ultrasonic anemometers. 
• A primary design goal of the DS-2 is to provide high accuracy wind speed and direction at a price that opens up research options, including greater spatial coverage. 
• Reports wind speed and maximum gust speed in meters per second with a resolution of 0.01 m/s. It also reports wind direction with a resolution of 1 degree. 
• If the sampling rate is greater than 0.1 Hz, the anemometer reports the speed and direction at the time of sampling. If sampled less frequently, the anemometer samples every 10 seconds, averages the vector components of the wind, and records the maximum gust during the specified sampling period. 

Note: the DS-2 is also compatible with other data loggers. See specifications for more information.
