220WXH WeatherStation® Instrument
Rugged Heated Marine Weather Station for USVs
The 220WXH is a durable, feature-rich weather multisensor for land and marine vessels and platforms.
Description
The 220WXH is a durable, feature-rich weather multisensor for land and marine vessels and platforms. Incorporating a thermostatically-controlled heating system for operation even in icy conditions, it features rugged IPX4 or IPX6 construction for excellent reliability in harsh environments.
The 220WXH calculates theoretical wind speed and direction based upon apparent wind as well as vessel speed and heading. The internal 10Hz GPS and three-axis electronic compass provide heading, position, speed over ground and course over ground functionality, and the three-axis gyro and accelerometer deliver high-accuracy rate of turn and pitch & roll measurement.
