Calypso
Calypso Ultrasonic Wind Meter (NMEA2000)
Pickup available at Mercury Yacht Harbour
Usually ready in 2-4 days
Description
The Calypso ultrasonic wind meter measures apparent wind speed and direction using four ultrasonic transducers rather than a spinning cup and vane, so there is nothing to wear out, jam or need calibration. It connects straight to an NMEA 2000 backbone and outputs wind data as standard, making it a plug-and-play upgrade for modern instrument systems.
This ultra-low-power version reads wind speed from 0.5 to 45 m/s with an accuracy of 0.1 m/s at 10 m/s, and wind direction across the full 0 to 359 degrees to within 1 degree, sampling once a second. Built from machined black engineering plastic, it measures 70 mm in diameter by 74 mm high, weighs 200 g and is sealed to IPX8. It runs on 5 to 36 VDC and mounts via three M4 threaded holes.
