It appears that the manufacturer discontinued production of this sensor, as it doesn't seem to be available anymore for purchase.
There are various alternatives though, and since ESPHome has a :doc:`/components/modbus`, any model supporting RS485 connection
can be easily integrated.
Check out in the ESPHome Devices database example configurations for
`RS-FSJT-N01 Wind Speed <https://devices.esphome.io/devices/Renke-RS-FSJT-N01-Wind-Speed>`__ and
`RS-FXJT-N01 Wind Direction <https://devices.esphome.io/devices/Renke-RS-FXJT-N01-Wind-Direction>`__ sensors.
