GMX200 Weather Station

Description

The GMX200 (Part Number 1957-0200-60-000) combines wind speed and direction sensing with integrated compass, and inclinometer. This comprehensive wind sensor package compensates for orientation, and tilt, making it ideal for fixed installation, or matching orientation to nearby wind instruments.

Wind

  • Relative Wind Speed & Direction. Relative to the North Marker
  • Average Wind Speed & Direction. Short and Long Term Averages
  • Corrected Wind. Corrected to Magnetic North
  • Gust Speed & Direction (WMO)

Inclinometer/Compass

  • Compass Reading (0-359° Magnetic North)
  • X -Tilt. +ve East, -ve West
  • Y -Tilt. +ve North, -ve South
  • Z Orientation, +1 Normal Upright, -1 Inverted Position
  • X & Y Can Provide 2 Decimal Points for Easy Installation.

Additional Parameters

  • Twilight. (Civil, Nautical and Astronomical)
  • Time of Sunrise, Solar Noon, Sunset (Location Required)
  • Position of the Sun
  • Supply Voltage
  • System Status
  • System Time and Date
  • Custom User Information (up to 16 character)

The GMX200 helps ensure safe lifting operations on construction sites by providing accurate wind data that accounts for crane jib movement. Its built-in compass corrects wind readings for both magnetic north and the instrument’s orientation, minimizing the risk of loads being displaced by strong gusts.
