Weather Monitoring - Weather Stations
New to the range is the Vantage Vue Weather Station which belongs to the same family as the Flagship Vantage Pro weather station. This weather station is arguably the most “cost effective” professional automatic weather station available. The Vantage Vue is aimed at those who need a basic weather station to accurately record met data for their location. Made to the same high specification as the Vantage Pro, Vantage Vue includes a compact outdoor sensor array and an indoor LCD display (Console).
The fully integrated corrosion proof sensor suite is built to withstand all weathers. The sensor suite transmits data wirelessly to the Vantage Vue Console every 2.5 seconds. Once at the Console weather data can be viewed on the LCD display with ease. Alternatively as with Vantage Pro weather stations, fit the Weatherlink software to the Console and all weather data can be downloaded to a PC. Once on the PC weather data can be analysed in graphic or text format. If the Weatherlink IP is fitted the weather data is automatically uploaded to your own weather web page giving you the opportunity to become part of a Global weather network see -weather station software for more details

Flagship Vantage Pro Weather Station
The standard weather station consists of the ISS (integrated sensor suite) and Console (Receiver). The wireless ISS runs on solar power being backed up by a lithium battery during night and low light level days. The transmitter in the station transmits data up to 300 meters every 2.5 seconds using unique frequency hopping radio technology back to the Console. The Vantage Pro Consoles can receive data from up to eight differing configurations. The Consoles can transmit data to other Consoles within range. Data displayed is "live" being updated every few seconds. The weather stations are modular and all sensors work on a "plug and play" concept making servicing and replacement of faulty parts a straightforward process.
Anemometer: Includes both wind speed and direction sensors. The anemometer is sensitive to the lightest breeze yet will withstand hurricane force winid. Wind tunnel tested and calibrated up to speeds of 170 mph.
Rain collector: Rain collector with self emptying tipping bucket rain gauge. Rainfall amounts recorded in 0.1 inch or 0.2 mm increments
Temperature and humidity: Temp and RH sensors are located inside the radiation shield. The shield protects the sensors from the solar radiation and other sources of radiated and reflected heat
