Weather Station - Vantage PRO 2

Introducing the first weather station in its price range to use frequency hopping spread spectrum radio to transmit and receive data up to 300M line of sight. Three times farther than competing stations!
   

The Vantage PRO 2 offers features such as forecasting, on-screen graphing, and much more.

Quick view icons show the forecast at a glance — sunny, partly sunny, cloudy, rain or snow—while a moving ticker-tape display gives more details.

The integrated sensor suite combines our rain collector, temperature and humidity sensors, and anemometer into one package — making setup easier than ever and improving performance and reliability.

Includes Vantage PRO 2 console/receiver, integrated sensor suite, and mounting hardware. Integrated sensor suite includes rain collector, temperature and humidity sensors, anemometer, 12M anemometer cable, and solar panel. Electronic components are housed in a weather-resistant shelter.

Sensor suite is solar powered. Electronic components are housed in a weather-resistant shelter. Console may be powered using the included AC-power adapter or with 3 off C batteries (not included). Wireless range is up to 300M outdoors, line of sight. Typical range through walls under most conditions is 60 to 120M.

Each Vantage PRO 2 console/receiver can receive data from up to 8 different transmitting stations. Add up to 7 additional temperature or temperature/humidity stations.

Complete system station in a waterproof enclosure (made to order)

For improved accuracy, temperature and humidity sensors are housed inside a radiation shield. The shield protects against solar radiation and other sources of radiated and reflected heat. Choose the standard radiation shield, or, for the utmost in accuracy, the fan-aspirated radiation shield. Available in both wireless and cabled versions. Add wireless repeaters for distances up to 2.7Kms.

Vantage PRO 2's were used to record weather around Beijing for the recent Olympic games.
