概要

Building on more than three decades of field-proven sonic anemometer performance, the CSAT3C delivers reliable 3-D wind flux measurements in even the harshest environments.

First introduced in 1995, the CSAT3 set the standard for measuring turbulent fluxes with its non-orthogonal design optimized for eddy-covariance applications. Each generation has since evolved based on real-world field feedback, including the CSAT3B’s integrated electronics.

Now, the CSAT3C advances that legacy with a design hardened for challenging conditions.

While maintaining the same trusted measurement geometry and version 5 algorithm, the CSAT3C introduces meaningful durability and usability improvements, including improved and advanced coatings, dustproof and waterproof sealed connectors, and simplified installation. It provides three-dimensional wind measurements (Ux, Uy, and Uz) and sonic temperature (Ts) at output rates up to 100 Hz. The result is a reliable, long-term solution for accurate 3-D wind speed and direction monitoring, even in precipitation and very high winds.

詳細

Reduced Flow Distortion

The CSAT3-series non-orthogonal, field-proven aerodynamic design has been cited in more than 100 peer-reviewed research papers. The CSAT3C retains this design, which is engineered to minimize flow distortion.

Reliable Operation

The CSAT3C has an upgraded transducer coating and sealed connectors. 

Measurement of Rapidly Changing Conditions

The CSAT3C delivers up to 100 Hz output with selectable bandwidth filters for accurate flux measurements, making the CSAT3C ideal for turbulence and eddy-covariance studies.

Streamlined Installation

The CPIP cable carries power and communications in one cable. It is being standardized across all future Campbell Scientific micromet sensors to eliminate setup complexity and wiring errors in the field.

Additional Diagnostics

With a built-in inclinometer and internal temperature and relative humidity measurements, the CSAT3C provides additional context for data and system monitoring.

Improved Data Accuracy

The CSAT3C automatically corrects speed of sound and sonic temperature measurements to eliminate the need for additional post-processing.

Refined Flux Measurements

Optional Kaimal corrections account for transducer diameter and sonic path length, reducing flow distortion effects unique to the sensor geometry.

Compatibility

  • CPI mode provides synchronization of all sensor measurements across complex topologies.
  • RS-485 ASCII mode features 100 Hz unprompted output, selectable bandwidth filters, and high noise immunity on long cable runs, enabling direct integration into third-party data acquisition systems.
