WEATHER STATION

Product catalog summary

Overview: The document provides detailed specifications and features of the Ultrasonic Weather Station WS-200 by Furuno. This weather station is designed to detect instantaneous changes in weather conditions and provides essential readings without any moving parts, ensuring continuous operation even in adverse weather conditions.

Sensor Functions: The WS-200 measures various weather parameters including apparent and true wind speed and direction, rate of turn, pitch and roll, GPS information, barometric pressure, wind chill temperature, and air temperature.

Wind Speed and Direction: The device offers wind speed accuracy of RMS 1 kt (±10%) for 0-10 kt and 2 kt (±5%) for 10-80 kt, with a range of 0-80 kt and a resolution of 0.1 kt. Wind direction accuracy is RMS 6° for 4-10 kt and RMS 3° for more than 10 kt, with a resolution of 0.1°.

Pitch and Roll: The accuracy is ±1° within a range of -45° to +45°. It is not recommended for applications requiring precise tracking of pitch and roll.

Rate of Turn: The accuracy is 3°/sec RMS.

GPS: The receiver frequency is L1 (1575.42 MHz) with GPS accuracy of 10 m (2drms) and WAAS accuracy of 3 m (2drms). The typical time to first fix is 52 seconds (cold start).

Barometric Pressure: The accuracy is ±20 mb (±20 hPa) with a range of 850 to 1150 mb (850 to 1150 hPa).

Temperature Measurements: Wind chill temperature is measured under 10 °C with wind speeds over 2.6 kt. Air temperature accuracy is ±1.1° for wind speeds over 4.6 kt, with a range of -25 to +55 °C.

Environmental Conditions: The operating temperature range is -25 to 55 °C, and the storage temperature range is -30 to 70 °C. The device is water-resistant with an IP56 rating.

Power Supply: The WS-200 operates on a 12 VDC power supply (9 – 16 VDC).

Equipment List: The standard package includes the WS-200 unit, a 6 m CAN bus cable assembly, a pipe mount kit, and installation materials. Optional accessories include additional cable assemblies for CAN bus and NMEA 0183 connections.

Connectivity: The WS-200 features a CAN bus port for direct connection to a NavNet 3D radar sensor, allowing flexible installation without extensive cabling. CAN bus data is distributed throughout the NavNet 3D Ethernet network.

Dimensions and Weight: The WS-200 weighs 0.3 kg (0.66 lb).
