MaxiMet GMX200 Wind Speed & Direction Sensor

Item Description

The Gill MaxiMet GMX200 is a solid state ultrasonic sensor that delivers extremely accurate wind speed and direction measurements. An electronic compass comes as standard which delivers apparent wind, WMO wind averages and gust data.

The optional GPS adds the benefit of a true wind measurement, height above sea level, latitude and longitude and simplifies installation by automatically finding north.

The result is an extremely robust ultrasonic wind sensor that requires virtually no maintenance, that can be installed quickly and easily, offering a fit and forget solution. Richard Paul Russell Ltd. can connect the sensor to the WeatherFile website where data can be viewed using any internet connected device and downloaded for detailed analysis in a CSV file format.
