6 Reference Quality Parameters
MetPak weather station utilises Gill WindSonic ultrasonic technology, a highly accurate barometric pressure sensor and a Rotronic Hygroclip HC2-S3-GI temperature/humidity probe. The design of the MetPak allows measurements to be as accurate as possible without influencing other measured parameters yet provides a compact, reference quality system. The unit is especially suitable for harsh or marine environments and is supplied with selectable Gill ASCII, NMEA SDI-12 and Modbus outputs.
The MetPak Base Station is capable of monitoring barometric pressure, air temperature, humidity and dew point. The unit features an on-board high accuracy barometric pressure sensor and a Rotronic Hygroclip HC2-S3 temperature/humidity probe housed in a naturally aspirated radiation shield. | |
This all-in-one variant of the MetPak features the same on-board sensors as the Base Station, with an integrated WindSonic ultrasonic wind sensor for high accuracy wind speed and direction measurement. | |
For users who require a remotely mounted wind sensor or who have more specialist wind sensing requirements, MetPak can also be specified with one of Gill’s range of 2-axis or 3-axis ultrasonic wind sensors. The selected sensor is mounted remotely, up to 10m away from the Base Station typically on a mast or tower. |
