Wind Speed ​​Sensor The 8455 (General Purpose) is ideal for temporary and permanent wind speed measurement equipment in R&D labs, production processes, and other applications. The 8455 has built-in electronics and calibration curves, providing a linear signal output. The linear signal is issued as a current (mA) or voltage (V) signal, which can be output to a variety of data loggers or data acquisition systems. Best of all, the user can easily change the current and voltage output ranges in less than five minutes.

TSI 8455 Wind Speed ​​Sensor is a general purpose sensor with a protective tip and a rugged ceramic sensor. Flow Range: 25–10,000 ft/min (0.125–50 m/s)Air Velocity Sensors 8455 (Universal)/8465 (Windowless)/ 8475 (Omnidirectional)Three different sensor types provide flexibility and a wide dynamic range for accurate measurement. The durable 8455 General Purpose Probe and 8465 Windowless Probe provide high accuracy and fast response time in many different applications. The 8475 Omnidirectional Probe provides accurate measurement at low air speeds and is ideal for use in a variety of wind directions. All models have user-configurable air velocity ranges and output options.
