LufftUSA Optical sensor Ceilometer CHM 15k „NIMBUS“

Description
Reliable operation in any climate! The CHM 15k series is prepared to work throughout the year and in any climate. Due to their double case structure combined with a window blower and an automatic heating system, the ceilometers are not interfered with fogging, precipitation, freezing or overheating. Supplementary description: High optical sensitivity for exact results! Accurate results in day- and nighttime are obtained by a solid state laser source with long lifetime, small bandwidth filters and a highly sensitive photo receiver. Special features: Great measuring range up to 15 km (50 000 ft) Enhanced multiple cloud layer detection Simple and eye-safe routine operation Service-friendly modular device setup Various data telegrams, including raw data GUI software for device control and display of measured backscatter data in NetCDF format
