Possible sensor for wind direction
#2

Is it the same spec as this? If so it should work. However it would appear from the spec sheet that there is a 10 degree "dead" space, 0-10. Worse than many potentiometer vanes which normally have only a few degrees dead either side of North.

Worth considering, given the price of the Bourns sensor. This is a research quality vane used on wind farm assessments.
