2 Description
2.1 General
The wind sensor 24513-NMEA is specically designed for the operating on ships, oil rigs, and other applications on
sea. The housing and the measuring elements are made of a seawater resistant aluminium alloys. Housing, cup-rotor,
and wind vane are anodized.
Due to the special construction with a watertight connector and splash proof traps for the bearings and due to the
shock and vibration proof construction, the sensor is fully qualied for a long service life on ships. An electronically
controlled sensor heating device (option) allows operating the sensor over the wide range from -35 up to 70 °C.
2.2 Function
The wind sensor 24513-NMEA has two dierent measuring elements to measure wind speed and wind direction. The
three-armed cup rotor will rotate from the wind. The number of revolutions of the cup rotor is proportional to the wind
speed. The wind direction is measured with a wedge wind vane with two ns. The wind vane axis and the rotor cup axis
are coaxial, running independently of each other on ball bearings.

WIND DIRECTION AND WIND SPEED
Example of data sequence with comma separated
elds: $WIMWV,357.0,R,5.2,M,A*CS<CR><LF>
eld delimiter: , (comma)
header: $WIMWV
wind direction: 0.0 to 360.0
R: relative wind direction
wind speed: 0.4 to 60.0
M: metric units m/s
status A (valid) / V (not valid)
stop delimiters: <CR> <LF>
error code: WD 999.9
error code: WS 999.9
IMPORTANT! PLEASE NOTE:
FIELD LENGTH
The development of a NMEA decoder should not be proceeded from rm eld lengths. The NMEA denition
proceeds from a variable eld length. The comma character (“,”) serves as eld disconnecting switch. Numeric values
in a eld can be presented dierently. In case a eld is not sent, it has a length of 0 characters (,,) [comma-comma].
CHECK SUM
The check sum “CS” is covered to two ASCII characters hexadecimal value. “CS” calculated by XOR operation of each
character in the sentence between “$” and “*”, but excluding “$” and “*”.
ERROR CODE
In case, that the sensor cannot generate a measuring value because e.g. a sensor element is defect or implausible
(raw) values are collected the sensor outputs in the corresponding data protocol the above mentioned error code
(e.g. 999.9) and sets the status from “A” (valid) to “V” (not valid).
Example: $WIMWV,999.9,R,999.9,M,V*37<CR><LF>
PARTICULAR CHARACTERISTICS WIND DIRECTION VALUE
Theoretically the value for the wind direction can take any value between 0.0° and 360.0°. It should be noted, that
in a full circle the values “0.0” and “360.0” are describing the same direction. According to the international valid
recommendations of the WMO (World Meteorological Organization) in the “Guide to Meteorological Instruments
and Methods of Observation” (WMO-No.8) the wind direction value 0.0° just has to be output at calm. The sensor
follows the recommendation of the WMO and outputs at wind from the north the value “360.0” respectively “0.0” at
calm (lull).

3 Setting into operation
3.1 Unpacking
When removing the sensor from the original box take care not to damage the cup rotor and the wind vane.
The measuring elements must not be used as a handle.
3.2 Choice of the installation site
For representative wind measuring the sensor should not be installed under the lee of large obstacles. The distance
between obstacle and sensor should be at least ten times the height of the obstacle. Furthermore the sensor should
be at least 5 meter higher than the height of the obstacle.
For operation on ships you should select a mounting place with little interferences of obstacles such as masts,
antennas, and chimneys. In most cases the users mount the sensor on a crossarm on the ship’s highest mast.
3.3 Mounting
After inserting the plug connector into the socket at the bottom of the sensor shaft, the sensor is mounted on a tting
tube with an outer diameter of 50mm and an inner diameter at least 40mm. If a traverse is supplied for the sensor
24513-NMEA then the tting tube is a part of the traverse.
Before the screws of the sensor are tightened, the sensor must be
adjusted to north.
In order to install the wind sensor fast and correct regarding the
north-adjustment this item is equipped with an integrated mounting
aid. Inside the inner bottom of the sensor a small bolt pointing to
the north is integrated to be set into a corresponding slot of the
mounting pipe. Therefore the mast piece has to be designed with a
corresponding slot as illustrated in the dimensional drawing.
Alternatively the correct north setting can be carried out by
searching a point outside the vessel in the landscape which is
located in the ship ahead direction respectively in the bow-stern
line or a parallel line in case of the sensor is mounted far away from
the middle line. The sensor nally can be fastened by means of the
two hexagonal screws when the selected point in the outer terrain
is in the view-nder (groove) of the sensor which is located on the
top of its housing. Finally the earth screw has to be connected to
the ship‘s ground. An acid-free contact grease is recommended to
protect contact surfaces against corrosion.
Obey all safety instructions while setting up the sensor
onto a mast.

3.4 Electrical connection
The cable is connected to the sensor by means of a splash-proof plug connection in the shaft of the sensor. Before
mounting the sensor on the tting tube, the cable with the plug connector has to be passed through the tube. The
electrical connection of the dierent models can be found in the wiring diagram.
If the sensor is connected incorrectly, the sensor or connected components may be damaged.

3.5 Cable entries
If the sensor is mounted in correct manner and connected with the right cable (accessory), you can attach the
wires to power supply and signal outputs to data acquisition equipment (computer). The sensor requires a 12-pole
CONINVERS plug connector of the series designation „TC“ (Ordering No.: TC-12S1N128055). The cable shield should
be connected with both ends at the ground wire (PE).
To reduce the risk of inductive interference the sensor must be properly grounded (screening on both sides).
3.6 Start-up
After having nished the electrical and mechanical installation work of this item as mentioned in this manual and other
related instructions the wiring should be checked once again before switching on the mains for the whole measuring
system. When the power supply of the sensor is switched on, the sensor automatically sends cyclic data.
3.7 Functional test
When the system installation is completed a simple performance check as mentioned here can be carried out:
• To check the sensor for wind direction the wind vane is set in the directions NORTH-EAST-SOUTH-WEST and
xed in these positions for a while. Accordingly to this directions the following values must be displayed: N or 0°
(360°), E or 90°, S or 180°, W or 270°.
If the display does not correspond to the actual positions of the wind vane, the sensor must be aligned again and
the cable connections checked.
• When stopping the cup rotor carefully by hand at its axis, the displays must indicate a value of 0 knots (m/s).
4 Service and maintenance
4.1 Replacement of spare parts
REPLACEMENT OF EXTERNAL PARTS
When working under harsh conditions it may be necessary that the following consumables have to be replaced.
Cup Rotor: After bending away the washer, the hexagonal screw can be loosened with a wrench size SW27. The faulty
cup rotor can be removed together with the washer.
The new cup rotor has to be mounted in such way that the concave parts of the cups are always on the right side
enabling an anticlockwise rotation.
After replacement of a cup rotor it will always be necessary to use a new washer in order to x the rotor safely. New
balancing will not be required.

aem.eco
LAMBRECHT meteo |AEM | u[sonic]WS6
page –9
Wind Vane: The wind vane blades can be removed after loosening the three screws of each blade. After mounting of
the new parts the wind vane has to be balanced. For this purpose the sensor must be held in a horizontal position (90°
shifted from the position during normal operation). If the balancing is correct, the vane will be stable in every position.
The adjustment can be made with the weight at the end opposite of the vane. It can be moved after loosening the
threaded pin. Please be sure that all screws are xed before mounting the sensor on the mast again.
