WE900 Weather Station

Description

The Global Water WE900 Weather Station is an easy-to-use and economical weather station for monitoring many weather conditions. The weather station is designed to be a drop-in weather monitoring station for easy integration with existing systems. The weather station's 4-20 mA sensors will interface with any SCADA, PLC, or RTU system that can accept a 4-20mA input.

The WE900 Weather Station Includes the Following Sensors and Accessories

• WE550 Wind Speed Sensor

• WE570 Wind Direction Sensor

• WE700 Temperature Sensor

• WE600 Humidity Sensor

• WE770 Solar Shield

• and the WE820 1 inch 304 stainless steel mounting frame with 316 stainless steel fittings, 6 ft. tall, 3 ft. wide crossbar

• Junction box

Weather Monitoring Station Installaton

Proper siting for weather sensors is important to ensure accurate readings. For example, wind sensors should not be installed too close to a building, as turbulence created by the building can interfere with readings. The Solar Radiation sensor should be installed in direct sunlight on a level surface (bubble level and leveling screws are included with purchase).

Purchase of both the Wind Direction and Wind Speed sensors includes a T-mounting bar with a 1" stainless steel coupling unit and allen wrench for easy allen set screw installation. Individual wind sensors or solar radiation sensors include 1 inch stainless steel elbow couplers and an allen wrench. The Solar Shield (with a stainless steel elbow coupler) can be used for protection and easy installation of the Temperature and Humidity sensors.

The Barometric Pressure sensor can be mounted with straps for a variety of applications (including inside a datalogger or to a display for hand-held use).

AWM Instruments offers data loggers for in-situ data retrieval, Cellular Data Loggers and Satellite Telemetry Systems, either of these monitoring systems can be added to the WE900 Weather Station to complete your system.
