Assemble the Anemometer
The anemometer measures wind direction and speed. The anemometer arm comes
partially assembled with the wind vane attached. The anemometer arm requires
assembly before it can be assembled with the rest of the ISS.
Please locate the following parts to prepare the anemometer:
• Anemometer arm (wind vane and cable already attached)
• Anemometer base
• Wind cups
• Drip ring
• Allen wrench (0.05")
• #4 machine screw, #4 tooth-lock washer, #4 hex nut
Attaching Anemometer Arm to Base
1. Insert the anemometer arm into the base, sliding the cable through the notch in the
base as shown in illustration.
2. Be sure to line up the small hole in the arm with the holes in the base.
3. Insert the machine screw through the holes in the base and arm.
4. Slide the tooth-lock washer and hex nut onto the machine screw. Tighten the hex
nut while holding the screw with a Phillips head screwdriver to prevent it from
turning.
5. Press the sensor cable firmly and completely into the zig-zagging channel in the
base, starting from the arm and progressing downward to the bottom of the base.
