The ONWA KW-360 is a compact, ultrasonic wind sensor specifically developed for reliable wind measurement aboard vessels.
Thanks to its solid-state design with no moving parts, it is virtually maintenance-free and measurements remain accurate, even with long-term use in all weather conditions.
Key features • Measures wind speed and direction, temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, and (derived) altitude in a single sensor. • Ultrasonic measurement system with no moving parts, meaning no wear and tear, no seizing bearings, and no need for recalibration. • High accuracy with a typical wind speed range of up to approximately 40–60 m/s and wind direction of 0–359°, suitable for both recreational and commercial shipping.
Integration • Supports NMEA 0183, allowing wind data to be displayed directly on compatible chart plotters and instrument displays (including various ONWA plotters). • RS232 and RS485 interfaces. • 10.5–40.5 V DC with very low power consumption
