Wind & Met Module

The Clarity Wind Module measures the 2-dimensional horizontal components of wind speed and direction, providing you better insight into where air pollution is coming from — and where it is headed.

This lightweight and durable sensor is made of molded thermoplastic for high performance — even in extreme climates with harsh UV and weather conditions.

Powered by the native solar panel of its companion Node-S device, the Clarity Wind Module is a truly plug-and-play solution for better source attribution and improved air quality modeling.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Clarity Wind Module measure?

The Clarity Wind Module measures two key meteorological parameters: wind speed and wind direction, as well as atmospheric pressure. This information is essential for understanding how pollutants disperse through the atmosphere and helps identify likely emission sources and transport patterns in both urban and remote settings.

How does wind data improve air quality monitoring?

Wind data provides crucial context for interpreting pollution events. By understanding which direction the wind is blowing from — and how fast — users can better trace pollution back to its source, identify affected areas, and improve air quality modeling. It also enhances the impact of time-series and spatial analysis for policy-making and emergency response.

Is the Wind Module compatible with all Clarity sensors?

Yes — the Wind Module is fully compatible with the Node-S platform. It connects seamlessly through Clarity’s modular interface, enabling plug-and-play integration without requiring complex setup or changes to the core system.

How is the Wind Module powered and connected?

The Wind Module is powered by the same solar and battery system as the Node-S air pollution sensor. It connects via a direct cable interface, drawing power and syncing data through the existing communications system. This allows for fully wireless, solar-powered deployment without additional infrastructure.

Can I use the Wind Module in areas with high wind variability?

Yes — the Wind Module is designed to perform reliably in a wide range of wind conditions, including environments with highly variable or gusty winds. Its robust sensors provide stable, real-time data that complements air pollution measurements in locations where wind-driven dispersion is a major factor.

Does the Wind Module require separate calibration or maintenance?

No routine calibration is required for the Wind Module. It uses pre-calibrated sensors and is designed for low-maintenance field use. As with all Clarity components, performance is monitored remotely, and optional Project Support Services are available for customers who need assistance with QA/QC or troubleshooting.
