CS805-L indicates that the cable length is user specified. This manual refers to the sensor as the CS805 and applies to the CS805-L as well. The CS805 is meant for use with a current source, such as the CE805,...
CS805 Heated-Needle Anemometer 3. Calibration and System Accuracy As listed in the previous section, the CS805 has been calibrated and tested in a controlled environment at 25°C, 646 mmHg (861 mbar, 0.85 atm), and 31.100 mA of constant current. This sensor is going to be exposed to many applications deviating from the calibration environment, and will continue to work well.
3.2 Pressure Change with Elevation FIGURE 2. Atmospheric Pressure Change with Elevation The calibration of the CS805 took place in Logan, Utah, at an elevation of 1.384 km (4500 ft.) above sea level. Unless the sensor is being used at this elevation, the calibration will need to be adjusted for a pressure change due to elevation.

CS805 Heated-Needle Anemometer Changes in the current delivered to the CS805 will directly contribute to the error of the wind speed measurement. When the CS805 is being used with the CE805 at a temperature different from 25°C the inaccuracy of the current delivery will alter the measurement.

Secondly, the differential temperature of the CS805 needs to be referenced to a separate air temperature measurement. This separate measurement needs to be made in a vicinity representative of the air temperature at the CS805. This can be done with any method of temperature measurement, such as a 107 probe or thermocouple.

This sensor works primarily on the theory of convective heat transport. However, before the heat is convected away in the moving air stream, it is conducted across the boundary layer. The geometry of the CS805 forces conductive transport across the boundary layer because it remains in a state of laminar flow at all wind speeds.
Page 22
Although boundary layer changes slightly with pressure (changes), the primary contribution to the change in boundary layer thickness is wind speed. For the CS805, the boundary layer changes from 0.8-0.08 mm over the range of the sensor. The change in temperature gradient is affected much more by wind speed than pressure, temperature, and humidity.
Page 23
Within the temperature ranges of most applications, this change will generally not be a concern, relative to the accuracy of the CS805. However, if operating in an environment with temperature extremes, the correction may want to be applied.
