05103, 05106, and 05305 R.M. Young
Wind Monitors
1. Introduction
These notes provide information for interfacing Campbell Scientific’s
dataloggers to the R.M. Young 05103 Wind Monitor, 05106 Wind Monitor
Marine, and 05305 Wind Monitor AQ. The 05305 Wind Monitor AQ is a high
performance version of the Wind Monitor that is designed specifically for air
quality measurements. Wiring is identical for all models. R.M. Young's
instruction manual, included with the sensor, contains sensor specifications,
operating principles, installation and alignment guide, and calibration
information. Multiplier and offset values in the Campbell Scientific notes are
based on calibration data obtained from the R.M. Young Wind Monitor
manual.
2. Mounting Requirements
The Wind Monitor mounts to a vertical piece of 1" IPS schedule 40 (1.32"
O.D.) pipe. (See Figure 2-1.) A band clamp at the base of the sensor is
tightened to secure the sensor to the pipe.
Campbell Scientific supplies a 12" length of unthreaded pipe for mounting the
wind monitor to Campbell Scientific's 019ALU Crossarm Sensor Mount
(Figure 2-2).
