The WS800 from the WS product family of professional intelligent measurement transducers with digital interface for environmental applications. Integrated design with ventilated radiation protection for measuring: Air temperature, relative humidity, precipitation intensity, precipitation type, precipitation quantity, solar radiation, lightning detection, air pressure, wind direction and wind speed. WS800-UMB includes lightning detection by an integrated sensor analysing the radio wave emission of lightnings. It delivers a count of recognized lightnings. The sensor analyses spectrum and wave form of the received signal to suppress the detection of man made electrical discharges. Measurement output can be accessed by the following protocols: UMB-Binary, UMB-ASCII, SDI-12, MODBUS. One external temperature sensor is connectable.

Available to RENT or BUY.
