Detailed description

The B&G wind vane bearing, part number 000-15142-001, is an OEM replacement designed specifically for the wind sensors of the WS300 and WS700 series. This component is essential to ensure smooth and precise rotation of the wind transducer, thereby restoring accurate wind angle data, which is critical for sail performance and autopilot operation.

OEM part for high-performance sensors

As a B&G OEM part, this bearing guarantees a perfect fit and compatibility with the wind sensors for which it is designed. It is required for servicing the WS300 series systems (including wired WS310 and wireless WS320 models) and the high-performance WS700 series. Note that this part is not compatible with older generations of B&G wind sensors. It is built to withstand the harsh marine environment at masthead level.

Maintaining precision in the WS300 and WS700 series

Replacing this bearing preserves the high accuracy levels of B&G sensors. The WS700 series, designed for top-level racing, delivers wind angle accuracy of +/- 0.5° and wind speed accuracy of +/- 0.2 knots, notably thanks to its vertical mast that positions the sensor in undisturbed airflow. The integrity of this bearing is therefore fundamental to fully exploit the capabilities of these instruments.

Expert opinion

Pol CONIN

Digital Manager

« The essential component for wind angle precision »

This bearing is not just a wear part; it is a critical component for wind data integrity. A faulty bearing on a WS300 or WS700 sensor increases friction, distorting the true wind angle (TWA) reading. The consequences are immediate: poor autopilot performance in wind mode, incorrect VMG calculations, and compromised tactical decisions. Proactively replacing this bearing is a low-cost maintenance task that restores the accuracy of a high-end sensor, preventing the need for a full and costly replacement of the entire unit. This is an essential procedure for any sailor requiring perfectly calibrated instrumentation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Contact us

Is this bearing compatible with my B&G wind transducer?

This wind angle bearing is specifically designed to be compatible with B&G wind sensors in the WS300 and WS700 series.

How often should I replace the wind vane bearing on my B&G sensor?

The replacement frequency for the bearing depends on usage and environmental conditions. Regular inspection is recommended, and replacement should be considered if you notice abnormal resistance, play, or a loss of precision in wind angle measurement.

Is this bearing sold individually or as a pair?

This wind angle bearing is sold individually.

Where can I find instructions to install this bearing on my wind transducer?

Installation instructions are usually provided in the user manual for your B&G WS300 or WS700 wind transducer. You can also find resources online on the B&G website or on sailing forums.

Is this bearing resistant to marine corrosion?

Yes, this bearing is made with corrosion-resistant materials to ensure durability in marine environments.

Does this bearing improve the accuracy of my wind transducer?

Replacing a worn bearing with this original B&G bearing restores the original precision of your wind sensor by ensuring smooth and friction-free rotation of the wind transducer / vane anemometer.

How can I tell if my wind transducer's bearing is worn?

Signs of a worn bearing include difficult or irregular rotation of the wind transducer, abnormal noise, or inaccurate or erratic wind angle measurements.

Is this bearing an original B&G part?

Yes, this wind angle bearing is an original B&G spare part (SKU 000-15142-001), ensuring compatibility and optimal performance with WS300 and WS700 sensors.

Can I use this bearing on another wind sensor model than the WS300 or WS700?

No, this bearing is specifically designed for B&G WS300 and WS700 wind sensors. Using it on other models is not recommended and could damage the sensor.

Is this bearing supplied with screws or other installation accessories?

The bearing is usually supplied alone. Check your wind transducer's manual for the required screws and accessories, and ensure you have them before proceeding with installation.
