Airmar WS-150WXS-RS422 WeatherStation Instrument with Compass and Solar-Radiation Shield - RS422

Compass with Solar-radiation Shield

Airmar's WeatherStation 150WXS provides accurate, site-specific, weather data from a single compact device. It measures seven critical weather parameters in real-time. The compact housing features ultrasonic wind and barometric pressure measurements. Plus the solar radiation shield increases the accuracy and stability of temperature and relative humidity readings. The maintenance-free features of the 150WXS makes it perfect for remote mounting as a network of stationary sensors—an integral component of a comprehensive weather station.

Recommended Applications: Land Based Stationary and Deployable Installations
