W200P W200P-1 Potentiometer Windvane
First Class performance to IEC61400-12-1 standard
weather applications supported water applications supported energy applications supported gas flux and turbulence applications supported infrastructure applications supported soil applications supported

Overview

The W200P-1 has excellent sensitivity and is suitable for remote operation. It incorporates a precision micro-torque wire wound potentiometer mounted in an all-weather, corrosion-resistant case. The potentiometer has the lowest possible torque consistent with long life and reliable operation. Read More
