Ethernet Weather Stations

“We like the price point, always get a response, and it integrates easily into our SCADA system.”

Joe Brotherton, Swinerton Renewable Energy

For ethernet weather monitoring, the Weather MicroServer enables any CWS sensor model to become an ethernet weather station with Internet-ready weather data and many industrial communication protocols. Click a weather station model below for more detailed information.

Weather MicroServer offers industrial protocols ( Modbus / OPC / SNMP / plus more) as well as Internet-ready weather data with all of our weather station models.

For 4-20 mA signal interface to PLC, DCS, and SCADA systems, visit the 4-20 mA Interface Page.

Additional Weather Monitoring Options:

– Weather Master Software: PC display, graphing, archiving
– Weather Display Console: Touchscreen weather monitoring, trend graphs and max/mins.

Orion Weather Stations™ feature an all-in-one sensor unit with ultrasonic wind direction and speed measurements, a highly-accurate impact rain sensor, capacitive relative humidity, temperature and barometric pressure readings. No moving parts enhances ease of use and durability. Increased resolution and accuracy make this system ideal for high-precision weather monitoring.

Pulsar Weather Stations™ feature all-in-one sensor modules with a variety of possible sensor configurations including ultrasonic wind sensor, compass, temperature, barometric pressure, relative humidity, solar radiation and rainfall sensors.

Magellan MX Weather Stations™ feature GPS and compass for auto-alignment of wind direction in an all-in-one module with multiple sensor configuration options. Ultrasonic wind sensors combine with temperature, humidity and barometric pressure sensors. Optional optical rain gauge and solar radiation.

Capricorn FLX Weather Stations™ feature a modular system with a Control Module which accepts signal inputs from an array of meteorological sensors. With durable aluminum/stainless steel construction, this wind direction and wind speed sensor offers two-degree wind direction resolution.
