Updated CWS Capabilities Overview

Magellan MX560 Weather Station mounted on a marine buoy

The new Magellan MX560™ Weather Station is ideal for marine environments, featuring IP66 and IP68 environmental protection and a 6-axis compass.

Harsh marine environments can be tough on meteorological sensors. Saltwater corrosion, persistent strong winds, and constant wave movement can produce inaccurate readings and shorten the lifespan of sensitive electronic equipment.

We have expanded our product line to include the Magellan MX560™ Weather Station, built to withstand operations like offshore wind farms, offshore oil, marine buoys, and unmanned surface vessels.

CWS President Nader Khoury comments: “The MX560 is a marine-grade sensor suitable for applications in potentially corrosive settings. With a high environmental protection rating that can even handle temporary submersion, it is a hardened sensor that will survive marine conditions."

Features and benefits:

  • IP66 and IP68 protection
  • 6-axis compass compensates for tilt and provides pitch and roll data
  • Wind speed and direction, temp, humidity, and pressure measurements
  • Integrated GPS and true wind calculation if platform is moving
  • Heated sensor option
  • No moving parts
  • Simple to set up and integrate
