THE THREE CUP ANEMOMETER WAS DESIGNED BY CANADIAN METEOROLOGIST JOHN PATTERSON OF THE CANADIAN METEOROLOGICAL SERVICE IN THE 1920'S; SUCCESSIVE VERSIONS OF THIS CANADIAN ANEMOMETER WERE USED BY THE CANADIAN SERVICE FOR DECADES.
Function
An instrument that measures wind speed & direction by means of a cupwheel & wind vane respectively, with the readings recorded by a separate anemograph & indicated on a separate flashing light indicator.
Technical
THE 1980'S VERSION OF THE PATTERSON ANEMOVANE DEVELOPED C. 1930 (SEE 890099); IT IS VERY SIMILAR IN FORM & CONSTRUCTION TO ITS PREDECESSORS BUT HAS MODIFIED WINDSPEED & DIRECTION ELECTRICAL CONTACT SYSTEMS TO CONVEY DATA TO AN ANEMOVANE & A FLASHING LIGHT INDICATOR.
