Introducing the FT602-SM: A Cutting-Edge Ultrasonic Wind Sensor
The FT602-SM is an innovative and lightweight ultrasonic wind sensor capable of measuring wind speeds up to 75 m/s while providing complete 360° directional data. Utilizing FT Technologies’ groundbreaking Acu-Res® technology, this sensor ensures a superior signal-to-noise ratio and maintains high data availability, even in adverse environmental conditions.
durable design for Harsh Environments
Crafted from industrial-grade polymer, the FT602-SM boasts a robust and low-profile design that enhances its physical strength. It meets IP67 sealing standards, can endure impacts of up to 50g, and is equipped with an integrated compass, pressure sensor, and tilt sensor for added functionality.
Versatile Mounting and Power Options
This adaptable unit is designed for surface mounting and includes an adapter for straightforward pipe mounting. It operates on a 5V USB power supply and seamlessly interfaces with standard autopilots,data loggers,control systems,and displays,eliminating the need for an external converter.
lightweight and Efficient for Drone Applications
Weighing only 170g, the FT602-SM is perfectly suited for flight control and environmental monitoring tasks on drone platforms where size, weight, and power (SWaP) are critical considerations.
