Detailed description

The B&G WS310 wired wind sensor pack is a wind measurement solution designed for recreational sailing and club racing. It provides accurate and responsive wind speed and angle data, essential for performance optimization and safety at sea. This system includes a lightweight sensor and a 35-meter mast cable, offering a stable and reliable connection.

Data Accuracy and Reliability

The WS310 wind sensor is optimized to deliver consistent and rapid measurements. Its wind speed resolution is 0.05 m/sec (0.1 knot) with an accuracy of +/- 0.1 m/sec (0.2 kt) over a range of 1 to 40 m/sec (2 to 80 kt). The wind speed range covered extends from 0.25 to 50 m/sec (0.5 to 97 knots). For wind angle, the resolution is 0.1° with an accuracy of +/- 0.5°. These specifications ensure reliable readings in various sailing conditions.

Robust Design and System Integration

Weighing 0.30 kg for the sensor, the WS310 is designed to minimize mast stress. It features a water resistance rating of IPx6 and IPx7, allowing operation in demanding marine environments. Its operating temperature range is from -25°C to 65°C. The pack includes a network interface that converts serial data to NMEA 2000®, ensuring seamless integration with B&G instrument systems. An NMEA 0183 output is also available. The system consumes 15 mA at 12 V DC.
