Yes. Many people find it helpful to talk through the details of how they intend to use the sensor, in what environment, and how it will connect to their equipment. Our Applications Engineers are available Monday-Friday, 9-5.30 GMT. Alternatively, you can contact them by email [...]
FT Technologies can supply small quantities of pre-assembled cables and connectors. For large volumes or long production runs it may be more economical to buy cables directly from your preferred manufacturer. You can see our full range of accessories here.
No, we do not supply data-logging software. As our sensors do not log data internally, you need to connect the output to an external device capable of data logging with the appropriate analogue or digital interface. For direct connection to your laptop [...]
Yes, it can. Our sensors have a variety of output options available, ranging from 4-20mA, RS422, RS485, and UART. Depending on which output type you order, there are many converters and integration techniques available to enable data transmission over WiFi. One popular [...]
The design life is 20 years, and has been verified by extensive environmental testing, please see our Product Certification page for further details. Events such as lightning, highly corrosive and erosive atmospheres, or exposure to severe mechanical impacts may reduce the operational [...]
The sensor measures the wind speed and direction in a 2D plane, therefore the sensor cavity surface planes should be parallel with the plane of air flow you want to measure. For instance, if you want to measure horizontal flow, the sensor [...]
What makes FT ultrasonic wind sensors unique is our use of Acoustic Resonance Technology. Invented by our Executive Chairman, Dr Savvas Kapartis, and patented in 1997, Acu-Res® is a solid-state (no moving parts) technology for measuring wind speed and direction. It uses an [...]
Acoustic resonance technology monitors the shift in phase of the sound waves, rather than the time of flight principle, to calculate wind speed and direction. Achieving resonance inside the sensor cavity results in a high signal-to-noise ratio, making it more resistant to [...]
All FT sensors are calibrated in our own production wind tunnel. On request, we can supply the results of this calibration. Please contact us with the serial number of your sensor to request this service. If, however, a MEASNET calibration certificate is required, [...]
