Anemometer assembly for Terex machinery

The anemometer assembly functions as a sensor that monitors wind speed during crane operations. By providing continuous data to the operator, this component assists in maintaining stability for cranes and heavy machinery working at height or with suspended loads. It integrates with the machine control system to alert operators to wind conditions that may impact load control or equipment stability.

This part, identified by part number 00013412, is manufactured by Terex for use across their range of mobile cranes, tower cranes, and material handling equipment. The assembly converts mechanical movement from wind exposure into an electrical signal, which is then processed by the crane computer and displayed in the operator cabin. It is designed to function across a range of wind speeds to support operational safety requirements.

Anemometers are standard safety instruments in heavy lifting applications. They provide the necessary data to help prevent incidents caused by excessive wind force on the boom or the load. Regular maintenance of the sensor, including checking for physical damage or obstructions, ensures the accuracy of the wind speed readings provided to the crane control system.
