1. product description
1.1 product description
RS-FX- * wind direction transmitter, compact and lightweight, easy to carry and assemble. The
new design concept can effectively obtain the wind direction information. The housing is made of
high-quality aluminum alloy profile, and the exterior is plated and sprayed with plastic. Features
such as erosion can ensure long-term rust-free use of the transmitter. Colleagues cooperate with
the internal smooth bearing system to ensure the accuracy of information collection, and use
traditional analog signals (4-20mA, 0-10V, 0- 5V) for data output. It is widely used in wind
direction measurement in greenhouses, environmental protection, weather stations, ships,
terminals, breeding and other environments.
1.2 Features
1.Range: 8 directions
2. Anti-electromagnetic interference treatment
3. Imported high-performance bearings, small rotation resistance and accurate measurement
4.All-aluminum housing, high mechanical strength, high hardness, corrosion resistance, no rust,
can be used outdoors for a long time
5. The equipment structure and weight are carefully designed and distributed, the moment of
inertia is small, and the response is sensitive
6. It can be applied to both four-wire system and three-wire system.

3.4Installation method
It adopts flange installation and threaded flange connection to firmly fix the lower pipe of the
wind direction sensor to the flange. The chassis is Ø65mm. Four Ø6mm mounting holes are
opened on the circumference of Ø47.1mm. Use bolts to fix it tightly on the flange. The bracket
keeps the entire set of instruments at the optimal level to ensure the accuracy of the wind direction
data. The flange connection is easy to use and can withstand large pressures.

3.5Precautions
1. The user is not allowed to dismantle by himself, nor touch the sensor core, so as not to cause
damage to the product.
2. Try to stay away from high-power interference equipment to avoid inaccurate measurements,
such as inverters, motors, etc. When installing and removing the transmitter, you must first

disconnect the power supply. Water entering the transmitter can cause irreversible changes.
3. Prevent chemical reagent, oil, dust and other direct damage to the sensor, do not use it for a
long time in the environment of condensation, extreme temperature, and prevent cold and heat
shock.

5. Common problems and solutions
Symptom: No output or output error
possible reason:
1) PLC calculation error caused by incorrect range measurement. Please refer to the technical
specifications in Part 1 for the measurement range.
2) The wiring method is incorrect or the wiring sequence is wrong.
3) The power supply voltage is incorrect (24V power supply for 0-10V models).
4) The distance between the transmitter and the collector is too long, causing signal disturbance.
5) The PLC acquisition port is damaged.
6) The equipment is damaged.
