NEW SWS present weather sensors

Introducing the new SWS present weather sensors for detecting snow, rain, drizzle, fog and haze.

SWS present weather sensors
The Safe Weather Sensors (SWS) are a cost effective solution (prices from £2,500) for measuring visibility and present weather. These present weather sensors are designed for use on highways and for general meteorological and wind energy applications.

Constructed of high-grade, powder-coated aluminium the SWS present weather sensors are suitable for use in most environmental conditions (although if salt-water corrosion (in marine applications) or other pollutants are a factor we recommend our fully corrosion-resistant HSS sensors) and have both digital and analogue outputs as well as relays for switching external equipment.

The SWS present weather sensors are based on the proven HSS technology of our higher specification HSS range of visibility and present weather sensors which have been in demand world-wide for over 20 years.

FEATURES
- choice of 2 measurement ranges:
< 10 m - 2 km (SWS-100)
< 10 m - 20 km (SWS-200)

- instantaneous and averaged Meteorological
Optical Range (MOR)

- SWS-200 measures rainfall amount + temperature

- digital and analogue outputs

- 3 relays to operate alarms and other external
equipment

- 24 VDC (ie battery) or optional mains (AC)
powered
