Application of Ultrasonic Anemometer in Railway

In train meteorological services, wind speed and wind direction are indispensable meteorological elements during train operation. The accuracy of wind speed and wind direction data will directly affect the safety of train operation. Therefore, in order to ensure the safe operation of trains, strong wind monitoring systems have been established in railway stations and railways in various regions to monitor and warn in real time and direct the trains. The ultrasonic wind speed and direction sensor is one of the main sensors of the gale monitoring system, and its output accuracy has an important guiding role for the train.

Why choose an ultrasonic anemometer?

Ultrasonic wind speed and direction sensor can provide accurate and reliable wind speed and wind direction data, which is one of the key elements to ensure the safety of railway transportation in windy areas. The wind area railway has the characteristics of large wind speed change range and fast wind direction change, and the dynamic response characteristics of ultrasonic anemometer can just meet the requirements of safe railway running.

Features of ultrasonic anemometer
  1. The ultrasonic wind speed and direction sensor adopts an upside-down design, which can avoid rain and snow interference, and is not afraid of wind and sand blockage. Compared with products without an upside-down design on the market, the measurement is more accurate and the service life is longer.
  2. The ultrasonic wind speed and direction sensor has built-in electronic compass selection equipment, and there is no need for orientation during installation, just ensure that it is installed horizontally. There is also no need to ensure that the N on the housing must point to the north during installation.
  3. The ultrasonic anemometer has no starting wind speed limit, zero wind speed operation, no angle limit, 360° all-round measurement, breaking through the angle problem, and can obtain wind speed and wind direction data at the same time.
  4. The ultrasonic wind speed and direction sensor adopts random error identification technology, which can ensure low discrete error of measurement and stable output data even under strong wind.
  5. The shell of the ultrasonic anemometer is made of high-quality ABS material, which is light in weight, easy to carry and easy to disassemble.
  6. The ultrasonic wind speed and direction sensor adopts an integrated design, high protection level, no moving parts, less wear, and longer service life. It can easily cope with various harsh environments and ensure stable and accurate data output.
Installation method

The installation method of the ultrasonic anemometer is relatively simple: first, put the device on the pole. It should be noted that there is a protruding N word on the device without the optional electronic compass, so that the N word is facing the north, so as to avoid measurement errors. Then use a wrench to tighten the screw against the pole and you can use it. When installing the equipment, the wiring sequence must not be wrong.
