The second generation WSO200 is a marine grade ultrasonic weather sta tion that accurately measures wind speed and direction, air temperature, barometric pressure, relative humidity, wind chill factor, heat index, and dew points. The wind measurement is calculated using six ultrasonic sensors in delta configuration, which means there are no moving parts to wear out or to get caught in the rigging. Unlike mechanical anemometers and weather measuring devices, the WSO200 is not affected by the common issues such as bearing wear, salt and dirt build-up, or bird perching that can all result in failure or data inaccuracy.
Precise wind speed and direction is easily achieved under tilt of up to 30°, as can be the case with heeled sailboats or powerboats operating in pitching and rolling seas. This makes the new Maretron weather station a gamechanger for recreational boaters.
The WSO200 is NMEA 2000® certified. When combined with a Maretron DSM Series or dedicated TSM Series display or any device running N2KView® V3 software, all data is visible on the NMEA 2000 network for a truly plug and play experience. Add a Maretron depth, speed & temperature triducer (DST110), a Maretron GPS receiver (GPS200), and a Maretron compass (SSC300) to view true vessel referenced wind speed and direction as well as ground referenced speed and direction.
The WSO200 mounts on a 1"-14 Standard Marine Mount and is waterproof to IP67 standards.
