Description

The 213 Masthead Unit is a replacement wind sensor designed to support ongoing service needs, not recommended for new system installations. It provides essential raw wind speed and angle data, ensuring that existing systems continue to receive reliable and accurate wind information. This sensor has been ocean-proven for its high performance and durability, making it a trusted component for maintaining the functionality of older systems. For those designing new systems or upgrading their equipment, it is advised to consider the latest models from the WS300 or WS700 range. These newer models offer enhanced features and improved performance, reflecting the latest advancements in wind sensor technology. The WS300 and WS700 ranges provide upgraded capabilities and are better suited for modern installations, ensuring compatibility with contemporary systems and delivering superior data accuracy and reliability. The 213 Masthead Unit remains a valuable asset for existing setups, providing continuity in service support. However, to benefit from the latest technological advancements and to optimize system performance, transitioning to the WS300 or WS700 range is recommended for new system designs.
