Description
MAIN FEATURES
MicroMet stations have been designed for weather, climate and environment monitoring in compliance with WMO guidelines (World Meteorological Organization – Annex 8).
MicroMet stations are equipped with the MicroMET3 datalogger and by professional sensors which can be calibrated from external laboratories (e.g. Accredia, WMO, Measnet, ecc…). Sensors may operate in several critical conditions (strong wind, hail, saltiness, ice, etc…) and, thanks to their low consumption, without any connection to the electrical grid.
MicroMet stations, based on the numbers and kinds of connected sensors, can be responding to the following applications and requirements:
- “Compact meteo”: station with 3m telescopic pole, easy to install and suitable for any application where available spaces are limited or where the optical impact must be minimum. Typical installations: meteo-urban monitoring, harbour areas, universities, research institutes, local boards, industrial areas, dams, civil protection, etc…
- “Synoptic meteo”: station with 10m tiltable/telescopic pole, suitable for applications where the anemometric measures must be done in compliance with WMO guidelines (ref. meteorological measurements in open field). Typical installations: monitoring of atmospheric pollutants dispersion (evaluation of Pasquill stability classes), airport, anemological studies, primary measure stations for weather forecasting, monitoring of snow and glaciological layers, etc…
The datalogger MicroMET3, which is the central processor unit of the station, is able to display, acquire, memorize and transmit by remote all data. Thanks to its modularity, the datalogger may receive up to 13 analog, 3 digital measures and 1 water multi-parametric probe with serial port.
