MeteoHelix Personal weather station with a high performance wireless radio and internal antenna.

Having achieved Sigfox Certification, the MeteoHelix® IoT personal weather stations are able to deliver wireless radio performance at the highest level in addition to their class leading measurement performance to WMO and NWS standards for all weather condition. For users this means that installation in agriculture and in smart cities can be hassle free, without having to take into account detailed coverage maps where Sigfox wireless coverage is available.

Radio performance of the latest generation of the MeteoHelix® personal weather stations has achieved the highest rating of U0 from Sigfox. MeteoHelix® is now commercially available and certified. More information can be found here: https://partners.sigfox.com/products/meteohelix-iot-pro-sigfox

The MeteoHelix® IoT LoRaWAN version is also available in for world wide distribution and features the same antenna design for top wireless performance.

BARANI DESIGN MeteoHelix® IoT weather stations for smart street lamps

Urban street lamp weather stations like the MeteoHelix® IoT Pro are able to produce research quality climate change data even in urban environments dominated by pavement and sun heated walls

Smart street lamp weather stations like the MeteoHelix® IoT Pro are able to produce research quality climate change data even in urban environments dominated by pavement and sun-baked walls.

Installations on lamp posts are ideal as they put distance between weather stations and sun-heated walls of buildings so that weather stations can do their job properly. While urban weather stations equipped with a helical MeteoShield® Professional are able to accurately measure air temperature even in direct sunlight with accompanying sun reflections and radiating heat sources, care must still be taken to choose an installation location representative of the environmental factors which one wants to measure.

Care must be taken to install urban weather stations such that artificially heated air does not feed directly into them. This will result in the measurements being dominated by hyper-local meteorological phenomenon. If one wants to measure the extremes of urban heat island effects, this will be acceptable, but if the goal is to quantify the urban climate over a larger area, lamp post and street light installations are an ideal choice.

Can one wind sensor replace 41 different wind sensors? Let’s take a look how

Heated anemometer MeteoWind® 2 in extreme winter icing

Wouldn’t it be nice if one combined wind speed and wind direction sensor could replace 41 different wind sensors?

  • MeteoWind® Compact shares the proven robust cup design of its big brother MeteoWind® 2, thereby simplifying field service.

  • The patented elliptic anemometer cup design ensures MEASNET accuracy and precision (Sample MEASNET calibration report) and enables MeteoWind® anemometers to excel in wind resource assessment.

  • All weather data reliability is ensured by superb winter snow shedding and a heated version of each MeteoWind® anemometer is also available.

  • Additionally, MeteoWind® sensors offer greater accuracy than required by the WMO and NWS, thereby making them maintenance free for many years in meteorological installations.
