MaxiMet GMX600 Weather Station

GMX600 Weather Station for Wind, Temp, RH, Pressure & Precipitation

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.
