Unmanned Surface Vehicle Monitoring
Reliable monitoring systems such as buoys, and USVs enable operational decision-making based on real-time, site-specific data rather than intuition. The highly changeable conditions at sea make offshore operations particularly challenging. Airmar has worked with many autonomous vehicle and buoy OEMs to develop the WeatherStation model 200WX-IPX7 that meets the operational challenges of this extremely harsh environment.
The low-power requirement of this patented model make it well suited for battery and solar powered applications. And the IPX7 housing is designed for this harsh and demanding environment.
Features
Ultrasonic measurement of apparent and theoretical wind speed and direction
Barometric pressure
Air and wind chill temperature
GPS position, speed over ground, course over ground
Three-axis, solid-state compass with dynamic stabilization
Three-axis rate gyro supplies rate-of–turn data
Three-axis accelerometer for best-in-class pitch and roll information
Housing rated IPX7 for water-ingress protection
Data output via a single cable (various lengths available)
NMEA 0183/ASCII serial data protocol over RS-232 interface
NMEA 2000 protocol over CAN
