Met Office launch the Self Referencing WindSonic
The Met Office designed ‘Self-Referencing WindSonic' has been designed for those applications where relative and true wind speed & direction information is required. The system aligns the Gill Instruments WindSonic wind sensor with a True North Technologies Revolution™ compass
The Met Office designed ‘Self-Referencing WindSonic' has been designed for those applications where relative and true wind speed & direction information is required.
The system aligns the Gill Instruments WindSonic wind sensor with a True North Technologies Revolution™ compass.
The Revolution™ is a magnetic compass, which must be mounted onto non-magnetic stainless steel. Any mild steel fabrications should be at least 2 metres away.
The self referencing systems compensates for the buoy rotation and provides both true and relative wind speed and direction
The Met Office selected the ultrasonic WindSonic for use on their MAWS (Marine Automatic Weather Station) Network to replace the problematic cup and vane anemometers. They are delighted with the ‘fit and forget' properties of the WindSonic used on data buoys moored in open sea, and intend to role the WindSonic out to their Lightships and Island AWS' (Automatic Weather Station's).

HPS EnduraCoilTM Cast Resin Medium Voltage Transformer
HPS EnduraCoil is a high-performance cast resin transformer designed for many demanding and diverse applications while minimizing both installation and maintenance costs. Coils are formed with mineral-filled epoxy, reinforced with fiberglass and cast to provide complete void-free resin impregnation throughout the entire insulation system. HPS EnduraCoil complies with the new NRCan 2019 and DOE 2016 efficiency regulations and is approved by both UL and CSA standards. It is also seismic qualified per IBC 2012/ASCE 7-10/CBC 2013. Cast resin transformers are self-extinguishing in the unlikely event of fire, environmentally friendly and offer greater resistance to short circuits. HPS also offers wide range of accessories for transformer protection and monitoring requirements.
