Advansea S400 Wind Probe Screen

ADVANSEA S400 Wind Probe Screen | Precision Marine Wind Instrument

Navigate with confidence and optimize your sailing performance with the ADVANSEA S400 Wind Probe Screen. This dedicated marine instrument is engineered to provide sailors and powerboaters with exceptionally clear, accurate, and instantaneous wind data. Designed for reliability in the harshest marine conditions, the S400 Wind Screen is an essential component of your onboard electronics suite, translating complex wind information into an easy-to-understand format, allowing you to make smarter decisions on the water. Whether you are trimming sails for a competitive race or ensuring a safe and comfortable passage, this instrument delivers the critical information you need, right when you need it.

The S400 series is renowned for its outstanding readability. The high-contrast monochrome LCD display, coupled with extra-large 45mm digits, ensures that wind speed and direction are visible at a glance from anywhere in the cockpit, even in direct, bright sunlight. When the sun goes down, the adjustable red backlighting preserves your night vision while keeping all data perfectly legible.

Key Benefits:

* Unrivaled Clarity: Experience superior readability in all lighting conditions thanks to the large-format LCD display and wide 160° viewing angle. Never second-guess your data again.
* Increased Safety and Awareness: Stay ahead of changing conditions with customizable high wind speed alarms. The wind trend indicator provides an immediate visual cue to shifts and gusts, giving you more time to react.
* Robust and Seaworthy Design: Built to withstand the elements, the S400 Wind Screen features a shock-resistant housing and a fully waterproof front face (IP66 rated), ensuring long-lasting performance and reliability at sea.
* Effortless Operation: A user-friendly interface with dedicated function keys makes it simple to cycle through display modes and configure settings, even with cold or wet hands.
