Product catalog summary
Specifications Overview:
The FT742-DM50 is a direct mount wind sensor designed for wind turbine control. It fits pipes with an outside diameter of 47.9 to 50.2mm and measures wind speeds up to 75m/s. The sensor is compact, with a height of 174mm and a maximum width of 70mm, and weighs 535g. It features superior corrosion resistance and lightning protection, making it suitable for harsh environments, including offshore locations. The sensor is sealed to IP66, IP67, and IPX6K standards, ensuring durability and longevity of up to 20 years.
Wind Measurement Capabilities:
  • Wind Speed: Range of 0-75m/s, with a resolution of 0.1m/s and varying accuracy depending on speed.
  • Wind Direction: Full 360° range, 1° resolution, with accuracy dependent on datum proximity.
Sensor Performance:
The sensor uses Acoustic Resonance technology, automatically compensating for temperature, pressure, and humidity variations. It operates at altitudes up to 4000m and temperatures from -40°C to +85°C. The sensor supports multiple units of measure and includes a configurable heater for temperature maintenance.
Power Requirements:
The sensor operates on a supply voltage of 12V to 30V DC, with a recommended 24V DC. It has a typical supply current of 31mA with the heater off, and up to 6A with the heater on, configurable in software.
Digital and Analogue Interfaces:
  • Digital: RS485 interface, ASCII data format, with a maximum data update rate of 10 measurements per second.
  • Analogue: 4-20mA interface for wind speed and direction, with configurable scaling factors and datum values.
Alignment Accessories:
FT Technologies provides alignment tools (FT041 and FT040) to ensure precise sensor alignment. These tools are compatible with Laserboy II or similar laser units.
Additional Features:
The sensor includes acoustic temperature measurement capabilities, available only on digital sensors, with specific conditions for accuracy.

FT742-DM50-1

FT742-DM50 (DIRECT MOUNT) ACOUSTIC RESONANCE WIND SENSOR The FT742-DM50 wind sensor fits directly onto a 47.9 to 50.2mm OD pipe and reads wind speeds up to 75m/s. For ease of alignment, it can be fitted using our special FT039 alignment collar and FT040/041 alignment tools. With superior corrosion resistance and lightning protection, the DM50 has been specifically designed for wind turbine control. The hard anodised aluminium body is highly resistant to corrosion, sand, dust, ice, solar radiation and bird attack. The sensor is sealed to IP66, IP67 and IPX6K standard. Small yet very rugged, it is designed to last for up to 20 years, even in an offshore environment. With no moving parts to degrade or damage and resistant to shock and vibration, it is easy to transport and can be used to upgrade and retrofit older turbines. C.
