200WX-IPX7 WeatherStation® Instrument
Rugged Ultrasonic Marine Weather Station for Offshore Applications
The 200WX-IPX7 is a marine and offshore weather multisensor that provides accurate data critical for USVs, ASVs and other dynamic offshore applications.
Description
The 200WX-IPX7 is an ultrasonic marine and offshore weather multisensor that provides accurate data critical for USVs, ASVs and other dynamic offshore applications. No moving parts and proven IPX7-rated construction enable reliable operation even in harsh sea conditions. The 220WX-IPX7 calculates theoretical wind speed and direction based upon apparent wind, plus vessel speed and heading. It also features an integrated compass, GPS, three-axis gyro and accelerometer for high-accuracy rate of turn and pitch & roll measurement.

Area of Application
Weather impacts every aspect of operations on offshore platforms, ships and in ports. Rapid changes in weather and sea conditions make the reliable monitoring of meteorological and oceanographic parameters a critical part of maintaining operational efficiency and safety. The numerous sensors contained in the compact 200WX, as well as its IPX7-rated housing, are attractive features for installations where space is limited, such as on buoys, USVs, and ASVs.
