Senzor aerian vertical

Installing the T222 sensor involves several steps at the masthead:

Start by installing the TA204 Mastfoot mast bracket, which is included with the product. Next, insert the wind transducer shaft into the Mastfoot. Align the transducer precisely with the longitudinal axis of your boat. Secure the transducer shaft in the Mastfoot by drilling the mast (if carbon) and installing the retaining bolt. Before lowering the mast, check that the anemometer cups and wind vane move freely. A simplified self-networking procedure allows wind speed and angle to display quickly on the onboard instruments.

The Raymarine T222 vertical aerial wind sensor is designed to measure and transmit essential wind data. It provides wind speed and wind angle, which are then displayed on your compatible onboard instruments.

Yes, to securely mount the wind transducer in the TA204 Mastfoot bracket, drilling the mast (if carbon fiber) is required to insert the retaining bolt. This step ensures optimal mechanical stability of the sensor.

The vertical design of the T222 sensor, combined with the TA204 Mastfoot mount, offers several advantages over traditional horizontal wind transducers:

It provides a more discreet and streamlined solution at the masthead.It is potentially less susceptible to aerodynamic interference from other equipment at the masthead.It serves as an alternative to models using outrigger arms, offering more direct integration.

Yes, it is possible to adjust the height of the T222 transducer if needed. You can cut up to 150 mm from the bottom part of the transducer shaft.

After cutting, it is crucial to ensure the shaft is perfectly centered in the Mastfoot and firmly held in this position before proceeding to the final drilling for the retaining bolt.

Yes, maintenance of the T222 sensor is simplified by its modular design. The following components can be replaced by the user:

The wind vaneThe anemometer cupsThe bearing assemblyThis modularity helps extend the sensor’s lifespan by allowing replacement of wear parts.

The Raymarine T222 vertical aerial wind transducer is designed to integrate with Raymarine instrument systems capable of displaying wind speed and angle. A simplified auto-networking procedure enables quick connection and data display on compatible displays.

Yes, calibration and precise alignment are essential after installing the T222 sensor. This step ensures the reliability and accuracy of the wind data displayed on your onboard instruments. The calibration procedure details are usually provided in your instrument’s manual.
