Professional Weather Stations
Easy-to-use, configurable multi-parameter weather stations
MetConnect allows users to build the system they need. MetConnect contains a number of integrated sensors. Additional sensors can be added to customize your system for a particular application.
MetConnect Data is easy to use and reliable. All sensor data is combined and output as a single string and is available on a range of communication protocols. Status codes can be included in the data to confirm the reliability of the measurements.
MetConnect is simple to configure, install, and maintain. MetConnect is supported by easy-to-use configuration and data viewing software as well as a range of accessories.
MetConnect is available in two models: MetConnect One, with an integrated wind sensor, and MetConnect THP without a wind sensor.
MetConnect is an update of the MetPak product range.
Typical Applications
- Weather observation
- Ports and harbors
- Coastal and ocean buoys
- Solar energy control and monitoring systems
- Agriculture and horticulture
- Environmental monitoring
MetConnect One Professional Weather Station
The highly flexible MetConnect One multi-parameter weather station is easy to configure, install, use, and maintain. It offers rugged stainless steel construction along with four high-precision integrated sensors to measure wind speed and direction, temperature, humidity, and pressure.
Three M12 connector inputs allow MetConnect to act as a hub and collect measurements from additional sensors which can be placed together in a compact arrangement or separated to suit individual application requirements.
Additional sensors can be added to the system, and the measurements added to the data reported by the station.
Product Features
- Easy to configure, install, use and maintain
- Robust, stainless steel construction
- Measure wind speed and direction, temperature, humidity, and pressure
- Three M12 connector inputs allow MetConnect to act as a hub and collect measurements from additional sensors
