VMHU 1050 mm, vertical anemometer with Ocean specification and wireless mast connection

B&G Oceans VMHU 1050mm Vertical Anemometer : Ultimate precision for offshore racing

The B&G VMHU 1050mm vertical anemometer is the benchmark wind sensor for racing sailboats and ocean navigators who demand uncompromising accuracy and reliability. Designed for the harshest environments, this sensor delivers crucial wind data with unparalleled precision, enabling optimized performance, routing strategy, and onboard safety.

Designed for perfect airflow

With its 1050mm vertical pole, the VMHU Oceans is specifically designed to position wind speed and angle sensors well above the disturbances created by sails (especially spinnakers and gennakers) and the masthead rigging. This exposure to clean, laminar airflow ensures exceptionally stable and accurate measurements, essential for calibrating speed polars and feeding high-performance autopilot algorithms like the B&G H5000.

Robustness and reliability for the oceans

The B&G Oceans series is synonymous with durability. The VMHU 1050mm is built to withstand the most extreme conditions encountered on the high seas, from constant spray to fierce winds. Its robust design ensures longevity and consistent performance, race after race, crossing after crossing. It's the preferred choice of top offshore racing teams, from IMOCA to Ultim class.

Integration and installation

This sensor model is supplied without a mast cable, offering maximum flexibility for custom installations on racing sailboats where every component is optimized. It integrates seamlessly into the B&G instrument ecosystem, becoming a vital data source for your navigation system, displays, and autopilot. Professional installation is recommended to ensure perfect calibration and optimal performance.
