All-In-One Weather Stations (AiO) are compact units that integrate multiple sensors for automated, multiparameter measurements—offering faster setup and lower maintenance than traditional Automated Weather Stations (AWS). Ideal for agriculture, environmental monitoring, and research, AiO systems like the Lufft WS family feature fan-aspirated temperature and humidity sensors, Kipp & Zonen pyranometers, advanced wind and precipitation detection, and radar-based technology.
With WMO-compliant wind measurements, SYNOP code support, and improved diagnostics, ongoing development aims to bridge the gap between AiO and AWS – enhancing sensor quality, connectivity, and overall performance.
VENTUS is built for extreme conditions, delivering reliable wind data even in harsh environments. Its advanced differential technology and automatic heating ensure accuracy at low temperatures. Seamless integration with hydro systems and PLCs makes it the precision tool for demanding professionals.
The OTT Parsivel² is a modern laser disdrometer for comprehensive measurement of all precipitation types.
Building on the robust OTT PLS, the PLS 500 adds innovative metadata and internal sensors for remote performance verification, ensuring peace of mind for long-term deployment. The PLS 500 measures water level, depth, or pressure using an easy-to-maintain ceramic pressure cell.
The CNR4 net radiometer measures the energy balance between incoming and outgoing short-wave and long-wave radiation. It consists of upward and downward-facing pyranometer and pyrgeometer pairs. The upper long-wave detector features a meniscus dome for better water runoff and a nearly 180° field of view.
Engineered for unmatched accuracy and durability, the SMP22 sets the global standard in solar radiation measurement. With cutting-edge quartz dome optics, smart digital interface, and a 10-year maintenance-free design, it delivers reliable data with minimal upkeep. Backed by a 5-year warranty and seamless Modbus® integration, the SMP22 is your go-to solution for high-performance meteorological and solar energy applications.
Unlock precision in boundary layer energy flux monitoring with the LAS MkII-based system. This compact, low-maintenance solution combines scintillometry with integrated sensors, GPS time sync, and flexible telemetry options. Designed for effortless setup and reliable performance – even in cold climates – it’s the ideal choice for researchers and field professionals seeking accurate, path-averaged data without the hassle.
The Kipp & Zonen SOLYS2 is a versatile sun tracker that supports a wide range of radiometers. Ideal for use in harsh climates and carrying multiple instruments, it is perfect for meteorology, climatology, BSRN stations, solar energy site prospecting, and plant monitoring.
