The XTension series of line of sight wireless radio units provide a remote data sensing link for battery powered systems when not feasible to utilize cables.  Designed to be SDI-12 compatible, the XTension radios effectively create a wireless SDI-12 link between the base station and one or more remote sensors.

The GTX-2.0 is an integrated Satellite Data Transmitter and Data Logger.  Originally designed as a GOES Transmitter, The GTX-2.0 is now capable of operating on a variety of environmental satellite data collection systems (GOES, EUMETSAT, ARGOS, Himawari, & INSAT) in both self-timed and random operation modes.  Logging options are available for up to 250,000 entries or about 6 months, depending on collection options.

The XPress is a compact environmental data collection platform consisting of the following components:

The UB8 Satellite Antenna is designed to be used with UHF satellite transmitters and receivers.  Its primary application is NOAA`s GOES Data Collection System, but it is by no means limited to this application. The UB8 mount is designed for 2 to 3-inch poles, but custom mounts can be manufactured upon request.

The UB6 Satellite Antenna is designed to be used with GOES, EUMETSAT, & GMS Data Collection Platforms operating from 401 to 403 MHz.  A smaller option compared to the UB8 Antenna, the UB6 comes at a lower price point and a smaller footprint for low-cost data collection platforms.

The Yagi-11 cross-polarized yagi antenna is a rugged antenna designed for optimum performance for GOES and INSAT Satellite Data Collection Platforms. The driven elements are fed by a solid 3/8" rod feed system that allows for maximum power input.  The feed system is completely sealed from elements in order to withstand unusually harsh weather and environments.

The MP-101 Air Temperature & Relative Humidity Probe is a compact, low-cost sensor that allows for low power consumption and no warm-up time. The MP-101 can be used over long periods of time without any maintenance or recalibration.  A state-of-the-art sensor, the MP-101 allows for steady readings and reliable data for any application and interpretation of data.

The BP-276 Barometric Pressure Transducer is a ceramic, low-profile sensor designed for remote environmental monitoring applications. The ceramic design of this sensor allows for improved performance from our previous stainless steel models.  This sensor provides extremely high reliability and accuracy, without sacrificing cost efficiency.

The TB-3 Tipping Bucket Rain Gauge is designed for remote, unattended rainfall measurements. Featuring an integrated siphon, this tipping bucket measures with extreme levels of accuracy throughout an extensive range of rainfall intensities
