Dragino WSS-22 | Industrial Wind Speed & Direction Sensor

The Dragino WSS-22 is a robust industrial-grade sensor engineered for the simultaneous measurement of wind speed and horizontal wind direction. Built to withstand extreme outdoor conditions, it provides high-accuracy data across a 0–60m/s range with a resolution of 0.1m/s. As a vital component for smart agriculture, renewable energy, and infrastructure safety, the WSS-22 utilizes a standard RS485 Modbus RTU interface, allowing for seamless integration with the Dragino WSC2-L Weather Station or any industrial PLC system.

Core Capabilities

Wide Speed Range Accurately monitors wind speeds from 0 to 60m/s with a low startup speed of ≤0.3m/s. Full Directional Tracking Captures wind direction across the entire 0-360° azimuth with ±1° accuracy. RS485 Reliability Uses Modbus protocol for long-distance, noise-resistant data transmission over industrial networks. All-Weather Performance Operates in temperatures from -30°C to 70°C with an IP66 rated waterproof housing.

Professional Applications

• Precision Agriculture: Monitor wind conditions for safe drone operations, pesticide spraying, and irrigation planning. • Infrastructure Safety: Provide real-time data for bridge safety, construction site crane management, and smart city wind maps. • Renewable Energy: Essential for site assessment and orientation optimization for small-to-medium wind power installations.

Technical Integration

The WSS-22 is designed to integrate natively with the Dragino WSC2-L weather station hub. This combination allows for long-range LoRaWAN® transmission of wind metrics to cloud platforms like The Things Stack or AWS IoT Core. It supports a flexible 5–24V DC power input and features a low operating current (13mA @ 12V), making it compatible with solar-powered IoT systems.
