Temperature, humidity, pressure

A combined instrument mounted inside three double louvered, naturally aspirated radiation shields with no moving parts. The results are high performance across each measurement over long periods of time.

Solar Radiation

An integrated solar radiation sensor/pyranometer. This highly accurate instrument uses a thermal sensor mounted as its base and protected by a single glass dome to record the amount of light in watts per square metre. It is widely used in agro-meteorological applications and for monitoring the performance of solar panels.

Wind

Wind speed and direction measurements are provided via an ultrasonic sensor and the addition of an electronic compass provides apparent wind measurements. Average speed and direction together with WMO averages and gust data is also provided. Add GPS (optional) to provide true wind and other features.
