WS320 bevielio vėjo jutiklis be laidų ir be sąsajos

This product, part number 000-14390-001, is a replacement unit. It is intended for owners who already have a B&G WS320 wireless wind system and need to replace only the masthead sensor (wind transducer / vane anemometer) due to damage or loss. It does not include the NMEA 2000 network connection interface.

This pack contains the essential components for replacing the masthead sensor:

WS320 wind sensorMast mount supportInternal batterySealing gasketMounting hardware (4 No.10 x 5/8 screws)Important: The Bluetooth to NMEA 2000 interface (base station) is not included.

Yes, if you do not already own one. This product is only the sensor. To connect it to your NMEA 2000 network and display data on your displays, you absolutely need the corresponding Bluetooth interface (base station) from B&G, which is sold separately or in the WS320 complete pack.

No, one of the main advantages of the WS320 sensor is its fully wireless design. There are no data or power cables to run inside the mast, which greatly simplifies installation and eliminates a common failure point.

The sensor is self-powered. It features an integrated solar panel that recharges an internal battery. This design ensures continuous operation without requiring external power.

The WS320 sensor provides high accuracy for demanding sailors:

Wind angle accuracy: +/- 0.5°Wind angle resolution: 0.1°Wind speed accuracy: +/- 0.1 m/s (0.2 kt)Wind speed resolution: 0.05 m/s (0.1 kt)

The WS320 wind sensor transmits apparent wind data at a rate of 5 Hz, or five times per second. This high refresh rate ensures fast response from instruments and the autopilot.

Yes. Once paired with its Bluetooth/NMEA 2000 interface (not included with this reference), the WS320 system sends data over the NMEA 2000 network using standard PGNs. It is therefore compatible with most multifunction displays and modern instruments certified for NMEA 2000, regardless of brand.

The low-energy Bluetooth wireless connection between the masthead sensor and its base station has a range of up to 30 metres (98 feet).

Yes, the WS320 sensor is designed to withstand the harshest marine conditions at the masthead. It holds dual IPX6 and IPX7 waterproof certifications.

The WS320 wind sensor weighs 0.32 kg (0.7 lbs), which helps minimize weight aloft in the rig.

Yes, the masthead bracket is included in this pack, along with the necessary hardware for installation.

Yes, the internal battery required for the sensor’s operation is included in the box with this part number 000-14390-001.

Yes, it is possible, but this sensor alone is not sufficient. To replace a wired system, you will need to purchase the WS320 Bluetooth/NMEA 2000 interface. It is often simpler to buy the complete WS320 pack (sensor + interface) for a first wireless installation.

To ensure accurate wind angle measurements, it is crucial that the sensor is perfectly aligned with the boat's longitudinal axis. The front part of the sensor must point directly toward the bow.

The sensor communicates with its base station via Bluetooth Low Energy technology, on the 2.4 GHz frequency band.

Yes, absolutely. This part number 000-14390-001 is specifically designed as a drop-in replacement for an existing WS320 sensor. It is ideal if your masthead sensor is broken but your onboard display (base station) remains functional.

The Bluetooth wireless connection between the WS320 masthead sensor and its base station has a maximum range of 30 meters (approximately 98 feet).

Pairing is done via Bluetooth between the sensor and its dedicated base station. The pairing process is managed through the base station (not included in this kit). Once paired, the sensor will automatically connect to its base when within range.

The sensor uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology to communicate with its base station, ensuring a reliable connection and excellent battery life.
