Offshore Windcube LIDAR Wind Profiler
a Vaisala - Leosphere device
• Engineered with a robust casing for integration into floating buoys and other harsh offshore locations
• Measures up to 12 customizable heights up to >200m above ground level
• Measures accurately at a bankable level horizontal wind speed, wind direction, flow inclination and turbulence intensity
• Wind speed accuracy: 0.1 m/s
• Wind speed range: 0 to +60 m/s
• Wind direction accuracy: 2°
• Classification and operational standard uncertainty acc. to IEC 61400-12-1 Ed.2 (03-2017)
• 1 Hz sampling rate and 10-min averaging periods
• Precise derivation of wind veer and wind shear
• Low mean deviation of the measurements of the horizontal wind speed component between the WindCube and the reference cup anemometer in a flat terrain
• FCR (Flow Complexity Recognition)
• Data access and monitoring via web portal
• Ease of deployment: unit weight below 50kg
