The RVM 96B-1 is a portable, easy to use electro – mechanical device for wind speed and direction measurements. It contains a built-in electronic compass.

The system for measuring wind speed is optoelectronic, with a 3-cup Robinson’s cross and a digital liquid crystal display. Wind speed is sampled in 1-second intervals. The Instrument also calculates 1-minute average and max speed and shows those values on display.

A mechanical system with a vane and circular scale is used for measuring the direction of the wind.

A built-in electronic compass enables proper orientation of the device.

The RVM 96B-1 can be set to measure wind speed in m/s, km/h, knots, or mph. The speed unit is user selectable.

Four AA-type (R6) batteries located in the handle power the electronics. An automatic power-off circuit switches the instrument off, if the cup assembly is stationary for more than 4 minutes. As an option, wind speed data can be transmitted to an external device in 1-second intervals via a RS-232 serial port.

The handle lid has standard ¼” threaded hole to enable the attachment of the device to a standard camera tripod.

The RVM 96B-1C is equipped with a portable case.
