B&G WS320 (wireless) wind sensor and wireless interface for connecting to NMEA2000 networks.
B&G WS320 Wireless Wind Sensor with interface. Designed to deliver highly accurate wind data in all sailing and heel conditions. The B&G WS320 has been compared to multiple different sensors in over 500 individual wind tunnel tests.
The B&G WS320 has the same accuracy (wind angle and speed) as the wired version, while transmitting wind at a super-smooth rate of 5 times per second. The WS320 wind sensor is designed to be wireless, for easy installation and light weight, without sacrificing performance compared to a wired unit.
