ZWS-Series Compact and Micro Weather Stations
ZWS100 / ZWS200 / ZWS300 / ZWS400 / ZWS500 / ZWS600 / ZWS620 / ZWS640 / ZWS700 / ZWS800
The ZWS-series is a range of compact weather station modules, from the single-parameter ZWS100 rain sensor to the ZWS800 with radiation and UVI. Each model in the series adds parameters on top of a common temperature, humidity and pressure base, over RS485 output using Modbus. MetSensor UK supplies the full ZWS-series as the official UK reseller of Zata IoT.
- ✓ Ten model variants covering rainfall-only through to full solar radiation and UVI
- ✓ Standard RS485 output using Modbus protocol
- ✓ ZWS600 provides the full standard suite: temperature, humidity, pressure, wind speed, wind direction, rainfall
- ✓ ZWS620 adds lightning detection to the ZWS600 parameter set
- ✓ ZWS640 adds earthquake monitoring to the ZWS600 parameter set
- ✓ ZWS200 anemometer includes built-in compass, GPS and wireless options
- ✓ Low power design suited to micro, mobile and portable installations
