Weather Monitoring Station Product Description
Global Water's 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.
Designed for general meteorological applications, the
Global Water Weather Station is a rugged and low-cost
system for a variety of weather monitoring applications,
including:
- Agriculture
- Education
- Environmental Studies
- Landfills
- Reclamation
- Wastewater Facilities
- Water Budget Analysis
- Water Conservation
Included Sensors and Hardware
The WE900 Global Water Weather Station includes the
following weather sensors and installation hardware:
- WE550 Wind
Speed Sensor
- WE570 Wind
Direction Sensor
- WE700
Temperature Sensor
- WE600
Humidity Sensor
- WE770 Solar Shield
- WE820 1" diameter, 6' tall, 3' wide mounting frame
- Junction box
Optional Sensors
The following weather sensors and hardware can be added
to the weather station:
- WE100
Barometric Pressure Sensor
- WE300 Solar
Radiation Sensor
- LW100 Leaf Wetness/Rain Sensor
- AT210 Soil Moisture Sensor
- WL400 Water
Level Sensor
- EP180 Evaporation Pan
- RG200 Rain Gauge 6", Tipping Bucket
- RG600 Rain Gauge 8", Tipping Bucket
- WE830 Mounting Tripod
Mounting Hardware
Global Water's Weather Station includes full assembly on
a sturdy and durable stainless steel tube frame that can
be mounted onto a pre-existing base or onto the WE830
Global Water Tripod for upright installation. The unit
is designed for durability and endurance in harsh
conditions. The
WE770 Solar Shield, a ventilated sun shield with
high reflectiveness, low heat retention, and low
thermoconductivity, is provided as protection and a
mounting platform for the Temperature and Humidity
sensors.
Weather Monitoring Station Installation
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 instalation. Individual wind sensors or solar
radiation sensors include 1" 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).
