OWS4000

Meteorological Observation Station

A professional six-parameter automatic weather station integrating temperature, humidity, wind speed, wind direction, air pressure and rainfall with optional real-time video terminal — ready for integration into national meteorological observation networks.

Six-parameter AWSSolarWiFi / GPRS / LoRa

The OWMS4000 is the flagship of the OWS general-weather range. The OWS4000 is a professional six-parameter automatic weather station that simultaneously measures temperature, humidity, wind speed, wind direction, air pressure and rainfall. With its open communication protocol it can be integrated into the observation network of national meteorological departments, and an optional real-time video terminal extends it for traffic, security and emergency-support deployments.

Various communication interfaces — WiFi, GPRS, 4G and RS485 — provide a remote wireless link between the field equipment and a central monitoring station.
