Detailed Description
MET200 systems provide a turnkey solution for anyone wanting quality meteorological measurements in a simple, cost effective package. The MET200 Core Unit consists of a prewired environmental enclosure consisting of: CR200X datalogger, 12V 7Ahr SLA battery, 10W solar power with mounting bracket and DIN Rail fused terminal wiring. Systems are supplied with mil-spec connectors for all external connections.
Mounting options include a 3 metre galvanised mounting pole or a 2-3 metre galvanised tripod, both supplied with lighting protection kit. Alternatively users have the option to supply their own system mount.
Communications options include direct connection to the RS232 port via the supplied serial-USB cable, or remote data collection via NextG modem with the -IP option and Campbell Scientific LoggerNet software.
MET200 systems can be ordered with up to 5 meteorological sensors: CS215-MET2 Air Temperature and Relative Humidity probe, 03002-MET2 Wind Speed and Direction sensor, SP-212-MET2 Solar Radiation sensor, CS703-MET2 Tipping Bucket Rain gauge and CS106-MET2 Barometric Pressure sensor. Choose any combination of these sensors to suit your measurement requirements.
