The MaxiMet GMX551 is a combined instrument mounted inside three double louvered, naturally aspirated radiation shields for the measurement of wind speed and direction, ambient temperature, humidity, pressure, solar radiation and rainfall utilising and external tipping bucket rain gauge (not included). The data is output in serial formats - RS232, RS485. SDI12, NMEA and MODBUS.

The MaxiMet GMX560 Marine is similar to the GMX500 with an improved environmental protection, IP68, 6-axis compass and M12 Connection. Allowing it to survive harsh weather conditions encountered by buoys and unmanned surface vessels, including short-term immersion and compensation for tilt with pitch and roll data. The combined instrument is mounted inside three double louvered, naturally aspirated radiation shields, taking ambient temperature, humidity and pressure readings. Wind speed and direction is measured using an ultrasonic sensor above the main housing. Outputs are available as RS232, RS485. SDI12, NMEA and MODBUS.

The MaxiMet GMX600 is a combined instrument mounted inside three double louvered, naturally aspirated radiation shields for the measurement of wind speed and direction, ambient temperature, humidity and pressure, and precipitation, with no moving parts. The results are high performance across each measurement over long periods of time.The data is output in serial formats - RS232, RS485. SDI12, NMEA and MODBUS.

Complete Remote Weather Station with a GSM/GPRS logger and wind speed and direction sensor. This weather station is based around the GRD3305-XF datalogger, which will send the data directly to a web server running the Middleware software, or our own M2M web interface. Data is sent in real-time to the server and our M2M web interface will provide graphical and chart views, e-mail & SMS alarming and allow data to be downloaded to a CSV file. Each base weather station is supplied with a 50W solar panel, charger and a back up battery capable of providing up to 2 week backup. The weather station can be expanded to cover additional parameters, including: barometric pressure; air temperature & relative humidity; solar radiation; soil temperature; water depth; rainfall, etc. The included solar panel and battery back up will provide c140mA to cover all the sensor options with a 2 week battery back up.
