Water management and the monitoring of air quality and atmospheric emissions are just a couple of the applications suitable for the compact meteorological transducer FMD760 from Bestech Australia.
This digital meteorological transducer, with integrated signal processor or A/D converter, can acquire all important weather variables in one device (over 20 different measurable variables). Up to 10 measuring channels can be evaluated simultaneously via the Almeno D7 plug.
The following variables are factory programmed: wind velocity (m/s), wind direction (°), precipitation quantity (mm), precipitation intensity (mm/h), air temperature (°C), relative atmospheric humidity (% RH), barometric atmospheric pressure (hPa). The meteorological transducer operates with current Aklmeno V7 devices, including precision touch screen data logger Almeno 710 and professional measuring instrument Almeno 202.
Air temperature is measured (in °C) by means of a high-precision NTC resistance sensor; relative atmospheric humidity is measured (in % RH) by means of a capacitive humidity sensor.
These sensors are enclosed in a forced-ventilated radiation-protected housing in order to minimize external influences (e.g. solar radiation, etc.). This ensures that in spite of high solar radiation accurate measuring results can still be achieved.
The forced ventilation, similarly, improves responsiveness in the event of condensation.
It can be fitted easily and has no moving parts so it is maintenance-free.
