Innovative Weather Monitoring
Especially ideal for mobile installations, Magellan MX Weather Stations combine the convenience of an all-in-one multi-parameter weather sensor with an internal compass and GPS. Four different models offer sensor options including:
• Ultrasonic wind speed and direction measurement
• A combined temperature, pressure, humidity instrument mounted inside three double louvered, naturally aspirated radiation shields
• Optical rain gauge provides measurements based on the size and number of drops
MX600: rain gauge, ultrasonic wind speed and direction, temperature, relative humidity, air pressure, compass, GPS
MX500: ultrasonic wind speed and direction, pressure, temperature, relative humidity, compass, GPS
MX300: pressure, temperature, relative humidity (no compass or GPS)
MX200: ultrasonic wind speed and direction only, compass, GPS
Magellan MX Weather Stations Feature
• Weather-protected sensor unit designed for maximum portability and utility
• GPS for compensated wind speed
• Automatic self-alignment of wind direction using internal compass
• No mechanical components means virtually no maintenance
• Low power consumption – ideal for battery or solar-powered installations
• One-year warranty
