Observator Synchrotac SYN-706 Wind Sensors

The Synchrotac SYN-706 / SYN-73X has a long history of reliable service in highly aggressive environments such as coastal tropical storm zones and oil/gas rigs. It is designed for general weather applications that require long-term accuracy, durability, and reliability, even in extreme weather conditions.

The heavy-duty anemometer is available as the SYN-732 (Polyphase Linear Transmitter); SYN-734 (Isolated switch contact closure); and SYN-736 (for optoelectronic pulse output).
