LSI is recalling about 100 model GS025 wind speed sensors because they can fail to display accurate wind data. This defect can cause crane operators and other workers to incorrectly gauge environmental conditions when lifting heavy items, which may lead to accidents. The charcoal-grey sensors are 7 inches high with three windspeed cups on top and were sold by LSI distributors nationwide between March and June 2013 for approximately $400. Consumers should stop using the affected sensors immediately and contact LSI for a free replacement unit.
The sensor provides inaccurate wind speed readings, which can cause crane operators to lift loads in unsafe conditions, potentially causing the crane or load to become unstable and strike workers or bystanders. No injuries or incidents have been reported to date.
Consumers should stop using the wind speed sensors and contact LSI for instructions on returning the recall sensor for a replacement unit. LSI is contacting known customers directly.
