Aanderaa Wave and Tide Sensors are compact fully integrated sensor for measuring the wave and tide conditions designed to be mounted on the Aanderaa multiparameter SeaGuard Platform or via cable connected to SmartGuard datalogger. Wave & Tide Sensor 5218/5218R are compact fully integrated sensors for measuring the wave and/or tide conditions. The sensor is designed to be mounted on the Aanderaa SEAGUARD® Platform or via cable connected to SmartGuard Datalogger. The sensor may also be used as stand alone with RS-232 output. The 5218R sensor is designed for use with long cables by means of an RS- 422 full duplex interface. The R-version can not be used in SeaGuard applications. The sensor is also available in a vented version. This means that the sensor is automatically compensated for air pressure. This is done by use of a compensating unit placed in air and an air-pipe in the cable between the sensor and compensating unit. The sensor application areas are in fixed installations, either deployed in a seabed installation in shallow waters, or mounted onto a fixed structure in the upper water column. Typical applications for the sensor are measurements of tide and wave in ports and harbors, marine operations, weather forecast, and climate studies.

A sensor for measuring average wind direction in a sampling interval. It is designed to be used with Aanderaa Sensor Scanning Units, Data loggers or display units. This sensor consists of a light wind vane pivoted on top of a housing. Inside the housing a compass is magnetically coupled to the vane. The wind direction sensor can be mounted directly on the Sensor Arm of the Automatic Weather Station 2700 or Road Weather station 4030. It may also be mounted on different types of sensor brackets from Aanderaa Instruments and on a 25mm O.D. vertical aluminum tube. When installed on brackets or tubes, the sensor must then be connected to the Sensor Scanning or Display Unit by a separate cable.

A sensor for measuring the average and maximum wind speed (gust) during the sampling interval. The sensor is designed for use with Aanderaa Dataloggers 3634/3660 and the Aanderaa Automatic Weather Station 2700.
