Overview
The 014A, manufactured by Met One, is a three-cup anemometer that monitors wind speed for the range of 0 to 45 m/s with a threshold of 0.45 m/s. You connect the 014A directly to a Campbell Scientific data logger, which measures the anemometer's pulse signal and converts the signal to engineering units (mph, m/s, knots).
Key Advantages
Compatible with all Campbell Scientific data loggers
Technical Description
The 014A is constructed of corrosion-resistant, stainless-steel and anodized aluminum. It's three-cup anemometer assembly contains a sealed magnetic reed switch. Rotation of the cupwheel produces a pulse that is directly proportional to wind speed.
Product Notes

Common Accessories
(4)1049
3/4 x 1 in. Nu-Rail Crossover Fitting
This NU-RAIL® Slip-on Offset Crossover fitting can be used in place of the CM220 to attach the sensor to the 1.0" IPS pipe of a crossarm.
OrderableCM221
Right-Angle Mounting Kit
The CM221 mounts a pipe or tube at 90° to another pipe or tube. It is typically used to attach a sensor with a vertical pipe (including most wind sensors) to a crossarm. The cast aluminum, right-angle mounting bracket has 3.8 cm (1.5 in.) U-bolts and hardware and will accommodate tubing with a 1- to 1.5-in. outer diameter.
OrderableCM216
Sensor Mounting Kit for Top of Tripod Mast
The CM216 Sensor Mount provides a connection point for this sensor to be attached to the top of a CM106B, CM110, CM115, or CM120 Tripod.
Orderable39112
DIN Rail Terminal Kit with 1 Terminal and 3 Wires
The 39112 provides the needed DIN rail terminals, separator, and wires to connect any product to a data logger or other peripheral that requires three wires for connection. This kit provides the following wires: black, white, and clear. The color-coding of these wires matches the wire coloring of the product for ease in connection, maintenance, and troubleshooting.

Replacement Parts
(4)014ACBL
Replacement Cable for 014A Anemometer
The 014ACBL consists of a 22 AWG cable with a Santoprene jacket and a connector for attachment to the 014A Anemometer. This cable can easily be replaced by the user.
Orderable1184
Replacement Reed Switch for 014A
The 1184 Reed Switch is difficult to replace without breaking it. Factory repair is recommended; request an RMA from Campbell Scientific.
Orderable16901
014A, 024A, or 034A Replacement Turret Label
The 16901 turret label is easily replaced by the customer. This label serves to repel water and is placed over the small access hole in the turret to reduce ingress by water.
Orderable3648
Replacement Bearing for the 034B, 014A, or 034A (two required)
Two of the 3648 bearings are required. They are difficult to replace without shattering the adjacent reed switch. Factory repair is recommended; request an RMA from Campbell Scientific. The bearings are also available from Met One as p/n A1898.

Compatibility
Mounting
The 014A attaches to a Campbell Scientific crossarm using a 1049 Nu-Rail fitting or CM220 Right Angle Mounting Bracket. It also can be attached to the top of our CM110, CM115, and CM120 stainless-steel tripods using the CM216 Sensor Mounting Kit.
Data Logger Considerations
The 014A uses one pulse count channel on the data logger.
Programming
The 014A is read by the PulseCount Instruction in CRBasic and by Instruction 3 (Pulse Count) in Edlog. Wind speed measurements can be taken and processed with any of the data loggers.
