    Repair, Refurbishment and Recalibration
    We offer a Repair/Refurbishment service for the instruments we manufacture, we also offer a Recalibration Service for our A100 Series Anemometers. Please enquire.

    Our factory aims to achieve a repaired/refurbished anemometer which performs "as new". Anemometers are completely stripped-down, electronics tested/adjusted as necessary, re-used parts are cleaned, then the anemometer is rebuilt using a brand-new bearings/spindle set and cable. Rotors are completely rebuilt with new cups and locking mechanism. Similar procedures are applied to windvanes. Having access to all original parts and test equipment means that the results of our Factory repair/refurbishment work is superior to the "field repairs" that others may offer.

    Using our Factory Repair/Refurbishment services ensures that the value of your investment in Vector Instruments sensors is maximized by way of continued high-performance and accuracy over many years, and over many measurement campaigns/deployments at different sites.

    /HE-4 Internal Anti-Icing Heater Option
    Our Anemometers and Windvanes can now be fitted with the new /HE-4 internal anti-icing heater option to help alleviate problems due to icing conditions. Because the /HE-4 heater is fitted inside the instrument, anti-icing effectiveness is improved, NO extra cables are required, and there is NO change to the instrument shape, dimensions or appearance meaning that optimum performance and accuracy is maintained.

    Vector Instruments
    Vector Instruments (V.I.) specialise in the manufacture and sale of quality, robust, professional wind speed and wind direction measuring equipment together with other weather sensors and associated equipment. Our products are available for sale to Trade, Business, Government and Educational customers (B2B sales).

    Vector Instruments is a trading name of Windspeed Ltd. Vector Instruments have been developing and producing anemometers and windvanes in North wales, UK since 1972 and was only recently reorganised into a limited company, Windspeed Limited and continues to produce instruments under the Vector Instruments brand/trade name.

    Recognised for many years as a leading name in the field of wind instrumentation for scientific research, Vector Instruments sensors have steadily found new uses in environmental monitoring, alternative energy, utility, and industrial applications. For this wider market, the range of wind sensors has been extended to include several new versions featuring different transducer types, outputs and other features optimised for specific applications. V.I. policy is one of continuous improvement of the whole product range, with periodic updating of specifications, while maintaining compatibility with superseded products wherever possible. New sensor designs undergo a thorough program of laboratory tests and field trials before release.

    Besides the established range of wind speed and wind direction instruments, V.I. have for many years produced specialist temperature sensors; these include the T351 naturally ventilated mini-screen in versions accepting several types of sensing element, an aspirated temperature sensor (T302) made to a UK Met Office design, and the H301 wet and dry bulb psychrometer.
