RWS-GMX500 Portable Weather Station Hire

Quick Overview

Compact Portable Remote Weather Station with a GMX500 Weather Station. The GMX500 includes integrated sensors for wind speed, wind direction, air temperature, relative humidity and atmospheric pressure, with optional SP-LITE for solar irradiance and a tipping rain bucket for rainfall measurement. Data is collected using a DT82I that can be downloaded to a USB memory stick, or connected to a PC.

WIND

Wind speed and direction measurements are measured using an ultrasonic sensor.
Average speed and direction together with WMO averages and gust data can also be
provided.

Measurement Range:	0.1 to 60m/s
Accuracy:	± 3% to 40 m/s, ± 5% to 60 m/s
Resolution m/s:	0.1m/s
Units:	m/s

TEMP, HUMIDITY & PRESSURE

A combined instrument mounted inside three double louvered, naturally aspirated radiation shields with no moving parts. This results in a high performance across each measurement over long periods of time.

	Temperature	Humidity	Pressure
Measurement Range:	-40 to +70°C	0-100%RH	300 to 1100mBar
Accuracy (@20°C):	± 0.3°C	±2%RH	±0.5mBar
Resolution:	0.1°C	1%RH	0.1mBar
Units:	°C	%RH	mBar

Optional Sensors

Solar Irradiance

The SP Lite 2 is a simple, low cost pyranometer for routine measurements of solar radiation. The unit has been designed to be used in all weather conditions with minimal maintenance. The SP Lite 2 features a silicon photo-diode detector with a conical diffuser to provide a full 180° field of view and allow rain to run off. The photo-diode does limit the spectral range, 400-1100nm, but this provides a similar spectral response to photovoltaic solar cells.

Measurement Range:	+2000Wm²
Resolution:	100µV/Wm²
Units:	Wm²

Rainfall

The TR-525 rain gauge is a freestanding tipping rain bucket used to measure precipitation totals with a pulse output for rainfall totals. The 6" open top funnel allows for a 0.01" measurement unit (convertible to mm). The rain bucket is free standing but needs secured to the surface to prevent it being blown, or knocked, over.

If you are interested in hiring one of these units, please contact us to discuss your requirements.
