CALYPSO - Ultra-Low-Power Ultrasonic wind meter (ULP STD) - 45m/s - UART/12C
Ultrasound is an anemometer that measures both speed and direction. This data can be recorded through a free application.
SPEED RANGE: 45m/s
PROTOCOLS: UART / 12C
CALYPSO - Ultra Low Power Ultrasonic Anemometer - 45 m/s
Small and powerful, get instant wind speed and direction...or follow it! Built with ultrasonic sensors, with no moving parts for durability and reliability, the Ultrasonic is a wind meter that measures both speed and direction; This data can be recorded through a free application.
Easy to assemble, easy to use.
All you have to do is unwrap it, attach it to your preferred setting or one of our complementary accessories, download the app and you're done! Its simplicity has led many users to find their own ways of using it, and our "open protocol" policy has definitely played a role. Many application developers and OEMs have created portable-compatible ultrasonic hardware: weather, ballistics, marine applications, etc. It is a single component but multiple screens. Take a look at our mounting accessories: mast mount, pole adapters or tripods.
Performance
The ULP represents an important technological advance that condenses a significant investment in R&D that brings us closer to a new generation of ultrasonic wind turbines. Both the shape and firmware have been improved to improve performance in rain, this being key for static applications such as weather stations. The mechanical design has been renewed to make the unit more robust and reliable. We are very proud to release a unit that requires less than 0.25 mA at 1 Hz (RS485) and 0.15 mA at 1 Hz (UART).

NMEA 2000 output
The ultra-low power ultrasonic anemometer can output a NMEA 2000 signal when using an NMEA Connect Plus.
- NCP HighEnd: Receives wind data from any ULTRASONIC anemometer within the Calypso product range. Converts NMEA 0183 wind and/or Bluetooth signal sentences into NMEA 0183 and Bluetooth network. It can also be used as a range extender by using it as a Bluetooth repeater.
- NCP W2000: Connect your ultra-low power ULTRASONIC wind data to the NMEA 2000 network. Allows the connection of 2 Bluetooth devices at the same time.
Anemotracker App Features
- Apparent wind speed and direction.
- Actual wind speed and direction (if used on a vehicle or boat).
- Track your wind data and export via Excel or Google Earth.
- Adjustable damping in wind direction.
- Adjustable damping in wind direction.
- Update Available to Latest Firmware Version from the App: This new plugin will allow the user to update the ultrasonic handheld device to the latest firmware version from the Anemotracker app.
