New Developments in the Field of Compact Weather Stations

Published over 17 years ago. See the latest and most current information on Weather monitoring.

The WS-series made by G. Lufft Mess- und Regeltechnik GmbH (Germany) represents the newest development in the field of Compact Weather Stations. Its professional intelligent sensor technology is equipped with an interface for Environmental Monitoring Systems. The maintenance free technology in combination with a multi-functional measurement approach sets new standards for application-oriented professional weather solutions. Based on Lufft’s UMB-system (Universal Measurement Bus) environmental measurements are as flexible as never before,

be it in stand alone solutions or in whole networks. The WS600-UMB represents a compactmeteo-station with integrated sensors measuring temperature, humidity, precipitation, air

pressure, wind speed and wind direction in one system and with one digital interface (UMB protocol made by Lufft).

The new WS600 in combination with UMB technology stands for: Easy installation - due to a modular system, free firmware installation is as easy as never before (updates and data transmission via RS232, RS485 or GPRS modem); Easy access - Lufft’s UMB-Config-Tool makes configurations on sensors or the whole station an easy process; Maintenance-free

application - Lufft’s radar technology for precipitation measurement is not dependent on costly maintenance procedures. Flexibility with regards to a web-based visualisation and monitoring software (Smart-View3) make the WS600-UMB made by Lufft a trendsetter in meteo applications.
