The following measurement elements are offered by the comprehensive device family depending on the version:
- Capacitive sensor for relative humidity
- Global radiation sensor (CMP3)
- Ultrasonic anemometer with electronic compass
- Sensor for liquid and solid precipitation (Doppler radar)
- barometric pressure sensor
- Temperature sensor
- Sensor for liquid precipitation (tilt balancing system)
The devices are interface-compatible with all OTT data loggers, ADCON RTUs, conventional HydroMet data loggers, and PLC systems, thanks to the serial interfaces SDI-12 and, optionally, RS-485 with a number of output protocols.
Power usage is kept to a minimum through customizable power-saving settings. The fan and heating can be switched. As a result, the device can be utilized for heated winter operations and hydro-meteorological applications using a mains supply or a solar supply.
- Parameters measured: Temperature, wind speed and direction, precipitation, relative air humidity, global radiation, air pressure, electronic compass
