220WX WeatherStation Instrument - Recommended for Moving Vessel Applications

Whether you are trying to improve safety or efficiency, the WX Series Ultrasonic WeatherStation Instruments meet a growing need for real-time, site-specific weather information. These accurate units offer weather specific data to help organizations monitor weather conditions on-site or in remote locations.

These all-in-one weather sensors measure apparent wind speed and angle, barometric pressure, air temperature and wind chill temperature. With the optional internal compass and GPS, true wind speed and direction can also be calculated. The UV stabilized, compact housing is fully waterproof.

These units offer a truly best-in-class solution at a better price point than any other weather monitoring system on the market today. :

• WeatherStation Instruments combine up to seven sensors, all with no moving parts, in one compact unit
• Wind readings are not affected by the common problems known in mechanical anemometers and weather measuring devices like bearing wear, salt and dirt build-up or bird perching, which can all result in failure or data inaccuracy
• Units are easy-to-install either permanently, or as a portable system. They can be installed on a standard pole with 1”-14 UNS or 3/4” NPT threads
• IPX6 waterproof rating (units with the relative humidity option added are IPX4 waterproof rated)
• Optional heater model available for colder climates under 1° C
• Operating voltage range of 12-24 VDC
