The Ambient Weather WS-5000 Ultrasonic Smart Weather Station is the most sophisticated home and light industrial weather station we have ever created. Our smart wind meter has no moving parts to wear out, and includes a revolutionary ultrasonic anemometer that is more sensitive to changes in wind speed and direction and transmits faster than traditional wind cup designs.
Weather Station Features &
Specifications
TFT Full Color LCD Display
Our sleek desktop display is freestanding or can be mounted on a wall. This vibrant, dynamic LCD display is easy to read day or night, features a light or dark colored background, and automatically controlled brightness settings based on time of day. Connect additional displays (sold separately).
Measured parameters combine with calculated data:
'Feels Like' Temperature (Wind Chill and Heat Index)
Dew Point
Gust (the maximum wind speed sampled once per second in the 16 second update period)
10 Minute Wind Speed and Direction Average
Sunrise, Sunset, Moon Phase
Forecast, And more!
The WS-5000 also displays minimum and maximum conditions with time and date stamp, historical archived data, which can be exported to SD Card (optional, not included) for advanced data analysis in Excel. The SD Card is also used for firmware updates.
Ultrasonic Sensor Array
The wireless sensor array features a pagoda thermo-hygrometer radiation shield with passive aspiration for the upmost accuracy, a bubble level for plumb installation, and a solar panel.
It connects to the console via RF (915 MHz) up to 1000 feet line of sight in open air (300 feet under most conditions). The wireless signal will not pass through solid metal, earth, or ground.
The sensor array mounts to any pole between 1.25 and 2" diameter with adaptive mounting bracket and U-Bolt design that can be tightened to your mounting pole (not included).
Extra Large Rain Cup
The extra-large rain cup ensures better accuracy. Since the sensor is wireless, it can be placed close to the ground, and the removable lid makes for easy service and maintenance.
The Indoor Thermo-Hygrometer-Barometer
The WH32B indoor sensor will monitor temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure. One sensor is included with the WS-5000 weather station system.
Optional Sensors (sold separately)
The WS-5000 supports the following optional sensors:
(8) WH31E, WH31P, WH31PF, or WH51RF
(1) WH31L-AA
(8) WH31SM
(8) WH51LW
(4) WH31LA
(1) PM25
(1) PM25IN or AQIN.
The WH31E, WH31P, WH31PF, and WH51RF share the same 8 total channels and display on the console.
The additional sensor models do not display on the console, but pass-through to the Ambient Weather Network and can be viewed there.
