i60 Wind Instrument Troubleshooting - Sailboat Owners Forums The yellow wire is 5volt pulses generated by the anemometer Now, the MHU is fed 8vdc on the red shield There is a down-converter up in the MHU which converts 8v to 5v, and then uses that for the Hall Effect sensor on the vane At the base of the mast with the wind blowing, you should see 0-5 volt pulses between yellow shield
Looking for a cost effective CFM meter for Dust Collector and Air . . . There's no such instrument as a CFM meter, but you can measure air speed as Mike suggested and taking measurements at several points to get an average velocity and using the cross sectional area, you can estimate the CFM Don't forget to do the necessary units conversion from FPS, MPH, knots, km h, or whatever the anemometer is displaying to feet per minute Once you have this number, what

Cheap wind instruments - Sailboat Owners Forums A few years ago, I built an anemometer on the cheap, using three table spoon measuring spoons as cups ($3) and a cap from a black spray paint can (free) This was mounted on a piece of old stantion (free) using a bearing scrounged from a dead VCR (free) and mounted on my stern rail using a BBQ mount I found in the garbage at our club (also free)
Adding wind speed to a small Garmin - Sailboat Owners Forums first off: I'm still trying to wrap my head around just how an instrument measures true wind speed on a moving boat apparent wind I can grasp as the comparison between gps speed and whatever is measured at an anemometer on the masthead but true windspeed? huummm Back when I was still flying
Raytheon Autohelm ST-50 HELP! | Sailboat Owners Forums I have to re-install the sending unit (anemometer and windvane) for a Raytheon ST-50, on top of my mast I recall that there is a re-set procedure to recalibrate the wind direction, when it is replaced I don't have the instruction manual \u000B\u000BDoes anyone either, have the manual, or recall how to
