Page 6: Safety
Safety Safety This manual may include a CAUTION and a WARNING indication. Familiarize yourself with the following definitions for the meanings of these indicators. CAUTION indicates a hazard and calls attention to a procedure that if not correctly followed could result in damage to the instrument. Do not proceed beyond a caution indicator without understanding the hazard. -
Page 7: Introduction & Overview - Tacmet Ii Weather Station
Introduction & Overview – TACMET II Weather Station Overview Met One’s sonic weather station (P/N 102602) is designed as a stand-alone weather station to provide accurate measurements of wind speed, wind direction, temperature and relative humidity, an internal flux-gate compass is standard. The unit has no moving parts and is ideally suited for use wherever reliable, maintenance free operation over a wide operating range under adverse operating conditions is required. -
Page 8: Installation
Installation Be sure to mount the sensor in a clear, open area to minimize any turbulent effects caused by local obstructions (e.g., trees, buildings, etc.). The sensor mounts on the prewired sensor mount. The connector key is matched to the keyway on its mate and secured by turning the connector’s collar until tight. -
Page 9: Theory Of Operation
Theory of Operation The Met One sonic anemometer operates on the principal that the speed of the wind effects the time it takes for sound to travel from one point to a second point. If the sound is traveling in the direction of the wind then the transit time is decreased. - Page 10 that the transducers will be close together resulting in a short path length. The short path length requires that all system delays be accounted for. If the equations for the transit time above are rewritten to include the delays in the system then we have: ’...

Page 11: Calibration
The transmission time is affected only by the horizontal component of the wind. Transducers are ’ = t ’ is used as both transmitters and receivers. In this way the close match required for t achieved. Temperature is also measured, but is not corrected for solar radiation errors. This temperature measurement is suitable for speed of sound corrections but not for most meteorological purposes.
