Description

Solid-State Wired Ultra-Low-Power Marine Wind Sensor

Condensing years of rigorous research and development, the Calypso Wired Ultra-Low-Power (ULP) Anemometer establishes a new generation of smart marine electronics telemetry. Its ultra-compact footprint and incredibly lightweight build allow for easy masthead rigging fitment, removing heavy swinging loads from the top of your mast while ensuring absolute reliability underway.

Commercial Precision & Network Flexibility

Featuring a standard RS485 data output interface (available in both polled and demand configurations), this low-draw sensor integrates flawlessly with standard shipboard instruments. The upgraded physical chassis and advanced algorithmic firmware filtering provide superior data stability during precipitation events, making this instrument the premier choice for static offshore weather grids, commercial fleets and competitive racing yachts.

Multi-Industry Operational Applications

While engineered to thrive in punishing offshore marine environments, the solid-state versatility of the Calypso ULP system provides elite situational utility across key industrial sectors:

  • Marine Niche: Commercial fishing vessels, coastal water sports monitoring, marina terminal management and private ocean cruisers.
  • Energy & Industry: Heavy crane operations, construction scaffolding protection, solar arrays and industrial wind turbine management fields.
  • Meteorology & Science: Environmental air quality tracking, smart city data loops, remote weather stations and wildland firefighting safety setups.
  • Aerospace & Precision Ballistics: Commercial airport telemetry, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) drone launch metrics and long-range ballistics calculations.
