Six-Parameter Automatic Weather Station Simultaneous Output of Wind Speed, Wind Direction, Temperature, Humidity, Air Pressure, and Rainfall via a Single Digital Interface

Six-Parameter Automatic Weather Station integrates six sensors—measuring wind speed, wind direction, temperature, humidity, air pressure, and optical rainfall—and outputs all parameters simultaneously via a digital communication interface. The system consists of a meteorological sensor unit, a data collector, a solar power supply system, a mounting pole, and a cloud platform. It comes standard with GPRS transmission capabilities and is designed to meet the meteorological observation requirements of various industries.

Six-Parameter Automatic Weather Station is an integrated, automated monitoring device that combines six key meteorological elements: wind speed, wind direction, temperature, humidity, air pressure, and optical rainfall. Featuring a compact design, the device houses all sensors within a single enclosure and outputs all six parameters simultaneously via a digital communication interface, thereby simplifying system integration and data retrieval processes. The device comes standard with a GPRS wireless transmission module; optional transmission methods—including RJ45, Ethernet, 4-20mA, LoRa transparent transmission, 4G transparent transmission, Bluetooth, and RS485-to-USB conversion—are available to accommodate diverse field conditions and connectivity requirements.

Regarding sensor configuration, wind speed and wind direction measurements utilize ultrasonic principles. The absence of mechanical moving parts eliminates the need for the periodic maintenance typically required by traditional mechanical wind cups and wind vanes due to wear and tear; the measurement range covers wind speeds from 0 to 60 m/s and wind directions from 0° to 360°. The temperature and humidity sensors are integrated into a single probe, offering a temperature measurement range of -40°C to 85°C with an accuracy of ±0.3°C, and a humidity measurement range of 0% to 100% RH with an accuracy of ±3% RH. The atmospheric pressure sensor covers a measurement range of 300 to 1100 hPa, making it suitable for meteorological observations at various altitudes. Rainfall measurement employs optical principles: by detecting changes in light intensity as raindrops pass through a light beam, the device calculates both rainfall intensity and cumulative precipitation. With a measurement range of 0 to 200 mm/h, the optical rainfall sensor—unlike traditional tipping-bucket rain gauges—contains no mechanical parts, thereby eliminating issues related to clogging or bucket jamming.

Six-Parameter Automatic Weather Station comprises five main components: the meteorological sensor unit, the data collector, the solar power supply system, the mounting pole, and the cloud platform. The data collector is responsible for sensor signal processing, data storage, and communication control; featuring ample storage capacity, it can retain at least 30 days' worth of data in the event of a communication outage. The solar power system—comprising solar panels and storage batteries—works in conjunction with the low-power data collector to ensure 7 to 15 days of continuous operation, even under prolonged overcast or rainy conditions. The pole mount is constructed from galvanized steel or stainless steel, standing between 2.5 and 3.5 meters in height; it can be customized to suit specific site conditions, and installation requires only the casting of a concrete foundation cage for secure anchoring.

The cloud platform serves as the remote management interface for the Six-Parameter Automatic Weather Station system, supporting multi-site connectivity, real-time data display, historical data querying, and report export functions. Users can access real-time meteorological data from any monitoring station at any time via computer or mobile device. The platform features built-in data analysis tools capable of generating various charts, such as temperature and humidity trend curves, as well as wind speed and direction rose diagrams. Furthermore, the platform automatically issues alerts whenever meteorological parameters exceed pre-configured thresholds. The Six-Parameter Automatic Weather Station system is designed to meet the diverse meteorological observation requirements across various sectors—including general weather observation, agricultural meteorology, environmental monitoring, campus science education, tourism sites, and highway weather services—providing a comprehensive, integrated solution for real-time weather monitoring and data analysis.
