NRG Systems’ 200M Wind Direction Vane brings
significant upgrades to the proven design of our
200P Wind Direction Vane. Made from the same
high-quality, UV-stabilized materials as the 200P,
the 200M boasts 360° continuous measurement
capability, lowering measurement uncertainty.
Improvements to the 200M’s sensing element
also lower measurement uncertainty by improving
sensor accuracy. Users who switch to the 200M
Wind Direction Vane can enjoy high-end performance
at an economical price.
Key Benefits:
Same vane and body design as 200P ensures
seamless transition to 200M
Field-tested materials for long-lasting durability
New magnetic encoder-based signal generator
means accurate data are available in all wind
directions
Improved mounting precision lowers measurement
uncertainty
Factory calibration certificates with sensor-specific
scale and offset values reduce uncertainty caused
by sensor-to-sensor variability

200M DESIGN VS. 200P DESIGN:
The NRG 200M Wind Direction Vane was designed to be a drop-in
replacement for the NRG 200P Wind Direction Vane. Accordingly,
most 200P characteristics have been maintained in the 200M. This
chart summarizes the key differences between the two sensors.
