1 FORWARD

Thank you for purchasing NovaLynx products. NovaLynx has been designing and manufacturing

weather instruments since 1988. NovaLynx represents several well-known brands of quality

manufacturers, including Gill Instruments, RM Young, Kipp & Zonen, and Vaisala. It is our hope that our

products will meet all your monitoring requirements.

2 INTRODUCTION

The 200-WS-21-A Dual Set Point Wind Alarm includes a rotating cup style anemometer (NovaLynx

200-WS-01B) and internal alarm buzzer. Two independently controlled relays are provided to operate

external equipment such alarm lights or sirens. The Wind Alarm can function as an irrigation or

fountain over-ride controller.

The back-lit LCD display is easily visible through the transparent cover. With the cover removed the

unit is programmed by push-button controls without the need to connect a computer. All set points

and the maximum wind speed value are stored in non-volatile memory. DIP switch settings select the

units (mph or kph) and enable/disable the buzzer.

Programmable Features:

Alarm Set Point Wind speed threshold for the alarm

Channel 1 0-100 mph or 0-160 kph (Default 25 mph / 40 kph)

Channel 2 0-100 mph or 0-160 kph (Default 50 mph / 80 kph)

Alarm ON Delay 0-99 seconds before alarm/ relay activation (Default 5 sec)

Alarm OFF Delay 0-99 seconds before alarm / relay de-activation (Default 5 sec)

When in alarm mode, a blinking LED indicates which relay(s) are active. Each relay can be connected in

the normally open or the normally closed mode. It is the responsibility of the installer to properly

insulate any connections to the relay terminals, especially if high voltages are present. It is also

important to provide an earth grounding wire to protect the controller from static discharge,

whether or not the relays are connected.

3 SPECIFICATIONS

The anemometer is rated for wind speeds up to 125 miles per hour (201 kph) and has a starting

threshold of approximately 1.2 mile per hour (2.0 kph). The Wind Alarm LCD can display speeds up to

99.9 (mph or kph), but the control logic continues to operate above this limit.

NovaLynx Corporation________________________________________________________________________________

200-WS-21-A Page 5 February 2021

The controller requires a 12V AC or DC power supply. The NovaLynx 200-WS21P Power Pack (sold

separately) is suitable in most applications, and comes with the proper terminals for easy connection.

4 PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKOUT

4.1 Power Supply Connection

The 200-WS-21P Power Pack (sold separately) is provided with ¼"

spade connectors that fit the terminals at the lower left corner of

the Wind Alarm circuit board. If you are using a different power

supply, crimp the provided accessory connectors to your 12V AC

or DC power source. Plug the AC Adapter into a wall outlet and

confirm the green power LED on the Wind Alarm circuit board

turns on.

The display should look similar to the

illustration on the right. This is the

operating mode screen.

NOTE: If you see the word "Temp:"

instead of "Wind:" then the DIP

switches are in the wrong position.

Refer to the "DIP Switch Settings"

section of the manual to correct this

situation.

4.5 DIP Switch Settings

The DIP switches are pre-set at the factory and should not need to be adjusted. However, sometimes

during installation they get changed accidentally.

1. The Dual Set Point controller is designed to operate as either a wind alarm or temperature

alarm. The DIP switch marked "Wt" determines which mode is selected. Set this switch to OFF

for wind alarms.

2. Set the "Wu" switch to OFF for wind speed in miles per hour (MPH). Set the switch ON for

kilometers per hour (KPH).

3. The "Tu" switch sets the temperature units. This is not relevant to the wind alarms, so it doesn't

matter how this switch is set.

4. The "Si" (silent) switch determines whether the internal buzzer operates. The normal setting is

OFF which allows the buzzer to operate. The ON setting silences the buzzer.

The controller checks the positions of the DIP switches when the unit initializes during power-up.

Disconnect the AC Adapter for a few seconds and then re-connect power to change modes after

changing any switches.

5 ANEMOMETER INSTALLATION

WARNING: Avoid overhead power lines whenever possible. If there are overhead power lines, use

extreme care to prevent contact with the power lines while installing the equipment. NovaLynx

recommends using only experienced equipment installers to avoid injury.

5.1 Anemometer Siting Considerations

Choose a mounting location for the wind sensor that is free of obstructions since nearby objects can

create eddy currents that will affect the wind measurements. Try to locate the wind sensor so that the

nearest object is 10 x T away from the wind sensor mast, where T is the height of the object.

NovaLynx Corporation________________________________________________________________________________

200-WS-21-A Page 9 February 2021

Roof mounted sensors should be placed on the upwind side of the building and away from all exhaust

vents. If the sensor is located on top of a building the sensor height should be 1.5 x H, where H is the

height of the building.

In all cases when the wind sensor data is to be correlated to National Weather Service data or World

Meteorological Organization data, the standard exposure is 33 feet (10 meters) above the ground.

5.2 Anemometer Mounting

CAUTION: Be careful when working on equipment that is mounted above you. Do not allow others to

stand below when equipment is being installed as falling objects can be hazardous.

The 200-WS-01B anemometer is usually mounted at the top of a supporting mast. The base of the

sensor accepts ¾" IPS pipe size or any other 1" to 1-1/16" (25 to 27 mm) outside diameter pipe. If the

anemometer cannot be mounted at the top of a mast, the NovaLynx 200-153 Mounting Arm (sold

separately) can be used to mount the sensor to the side.

The supporting mast or tower should be properly grounded to minimize lightning damage. Where

lightning strikes are likely a lightning rod above the level of the sensor, preferably on a separate tower,

should be installed.

Position the wind sensor onto the end of the mast or mounting arm. Secure the sensor to the mast

using the set screws provided in the sensor base. Do not use excessive force when tightening the

screws.

5.3 Cable Installation

The PVC jacket of the cable will last for many years outdoors under normal circumstances. In harsh

environments it may be necessary to protect the cable with conduit.

Route the sensor cable down the mast and to the monitoring equipment in the most direct manner.

Leave a "drip loop" of cable below the entry point to the equipment enclosure to help keep moisture

out. Fasten the cable to the mast with cable ties to prevent whipping during high velocity winds. For

best results, use plastic cable ties that are resistant to ultra-violet radiation and place them at two foot

intervals. Do not over-tighten.

Wire Diagram for 200-WS-01B Wind Speed Sensor

NOTE: The shield wire in the sensor cable is electrically connected to the shaft holding the bearing /

cup assembly. The purpose is to bleed off static that would otherwise affect the sensor output. It is

important to earth ground the shield wire for best results.

5.5 Anemometer Maintenance

Wind sensors experience vibration due to high velocity wind. The vibration can loosen the mounting

screws or the support structure. Regular inspection of the mounting hardware is required to prevent

damage to the sensor.

1. Tighten the mounting screws if necessary (do not strip the threads in the plastic base of the

sensor).

2. Spin the anemometer cup assembly. It should turn freely. A drop of light machine oil (e.g.

fishing reel oil) may be applied when needed. Do not use penetrating oil such as WD40 because

it will wear off quickly leaving the bearing dry and susceptible to rust.

3. Inspect the cable and ensure it is secured to the mast to prevent damage due to wind whipping.

4. A repair kit (Part number 2502-14-10B) is available in case one of the cup arms is broken.

6 WIND ALARM CONTROLLER INSTALLATION

6.1 Controller Location

To be effective the Wind Alarm controller must be in a location where one can view the display and hear

the alarm. At the same time it should not be accessible to unauthorized personnel. It will need to be

mounted near a 120VAC receptacle for power. If the controller is inside a building the sensor cable will

need to be routed outside so that the sensor can be exposed to the wind.
