R.M. Young Wind Sentry
1. Introduction
The 03002 Wind Sentry Set measures both wind speed and direction. It
consists of a 3-cup anemometer and a wind vane mounted on a small crossarm.
The anemometer (pn 03101) and vane (pn 03301) may be purchased
separately.
Before installing the 03002, please study
• Section 2, Cautionary Statements
• Section 3, Initial Inspection
• Section 4, Quickstart
2. Cautionary Statements
• The 03002 is a precision instrument. Please handle it with care.
• If the 03002 is to be installed at heights over 6 feet, be familiar with tower
safety and follow safe tower climbing procedures.
• Danger — Use extreme care when working near overhead electrical wires.
Check for overhead wires before mounting the 03002 or before raising a
tower.
• The black outer jacket of the cable is Santoprene® rubber. This
compound was chosen for its resistance to temperature extremes, moisture,
and UV degradation. However, this jacket will support combustion in air.
It is rated as slow burning when tested according to U.L. 94 H.B. and will
pass FMVSS302. Local fire codes may preclude its use inside buildings.
3. Initial Inspection
• Upon receipt of the 03002, inspect the packaging and contents for damage.
File damage claims with the shipping company. Immediately check
package contents against the shipping documentation (see Section 3.1,
Ships With List). Contact Campbell Scientific about any discrepancies.
• The model number and cable length are printed on a label at the
connection end of the cable. Check this information against the shipping
documents to ensure the expected product and cable length are received.
