Weather sensor WST6000

Weather sensor WST6000

The weather sensor WST6000 is a powerful instrument measuring the weather conditions.

This intelligent and sturdy device measures in a permanent way :

  • the wind speed
  • the wind direction
  • the ambient air temperature
  • the atmospheric pressure
  • the relative humidity
  • calculation of dew point

The high precision weather sensor WST6000 answers quickly the variations of wind and measures from the slightest breath. The measurements provided by the weather sensor are transmitted by a RS-485 serial link. This weather sensor supports shocks and vibrations. It does not requirie any particular maintenance. It is robust, compact, automatic and without any moving parts.

The WST6000 is perfectly adapted to rigorous climates and can be equipped with a protection system against frost and icing (as option). Its performances are not affected by heat, snow or rain.

The installation of this compact weather sensor is easy, thanks to the integrated mast adapter for mast Ø 50mm
