The Global Water Wind Direction Sensor is designed to
accurately measure wind direction even in the harshest environments.
The wind direction indicator measures wind direction with a wind vane
connected to a potentiometer that converts the signal to a 4-20 mA
output with almost infinite resolution.
Type: Wind Vane with
potentiometer |
 |
The Global Water Wind Speed Sensor is constructed of
high-impact materials, ensuring its durability and ruggedness even in
severe weather conditions. The Wind Speed gauge measures wind
speeds of up to 110 MPH with a 3 cup anemometer. The wind speed
indicator has a very low threshold, and it responds accurately to subtle
changes in wind speed.
Type: Three cup anemometer |
Temperature Sensor WE700
Solar Shield WE770

The Global Water Humidity Sensor is a precise, durable
unit. Humidity Sensors are composed of a solid state capacitative
element with a linear amplifier.
The Global Water Temperature Sensor is a high quality, rugged instrument, precision RTD calibrated to US National Standards. The Global Water Solar Shield is a ventilated sun shield, with high reflectiveness, low heat retention, and low thermoconductivity. The unit is designed to protect the Global Water Humidity and Temperature sensors from direct sunlight that may affect the sensor's 4-20 mA output. Humidity

This precision pyranometer includes a bubble level,
leveling screws and mounting hardware for quality installation.
The Global Water Solar Radiation detector uses a high stability silicon
photovoltaic detector (blue enhanced) to obtain accurate readings.
Detector: High-stability
silicon photovoltaic detector (blue enhanced). |

Global Water's highly accurate Barometric Pressure Sensor
is manufactured under the latest mircro-technologies and covers a
pressure range from 800 to 1100 mb. The barometric pressure
indicator is fully temperature compensated within an operating range of
-40° to 65° C.
Output: 4-20 mA |
Installation 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. For use with the Temperature and Humidity sensors, the Solar
Shield (with a stainless steel elbow coupler) for protection and easy
installation is available. The Barometric Pressure sensor is inside a
smallblack case that can be mounted (with straps) for a variety of applications
(including inside a datalogger, or to a display for hand-held use).

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

Description Included Sensors Optional Sensors System Integration Solar
Shield Mounting Hardware
Global Water's 4-20mA Weather Station is
a fully functional, easy-to-use, economical, weather station for monitoring and
reporting many weather conditions.
The basic 4-20 mA Station includes the following weather
sensors and hardware:
The following 4-20 mA weather sensors and hardware can be added to the weather
station to monitor other weather related parameters.
Global Water's 4-20mA Weather Station was designed to be a drop in weather
monitoring system for integration with existing systems. The 4-20 mA
current loop sensors were designed to interface with any SCADA, PLC, or RTU
system that can accept a 4-20mA input.
A ventilated sun shield, WE770, with high reflectiveness, low heat retention and
low thermoconductivity is provided as protection for the Temperature
and Humidity sensors.
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 Global Water Tripod, WE830, for upright installation. The unit is
designed for durability and endurance in harsh conditions.
Applications
Designed for general meteorological
applications, the current loop Weather Station is a rugged and low-cost solution
to a variety of weather monitoring requirements:
Installation The Global 4-20 mA Weather Station (WE900) comes with a stainless steel frame
that can be mounted onto a base. A tripod stand (WE830) can also be
purcahased to hold the Weather Station frame upright.
Proper siting for weather systems 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 included with purchase).
