Orion Vehicle Mount™ Weather Station With WeatherMaster Software
The vehicle-mounted Orion™ Weather Station is specifically designed
for Emergency Management. The mast and sensor module
attach quickly and easily to any Incident Command or HazMat Response
Vehicle once the exterior mounting brackets are permanently
installed.
This compact, all-in-one sensor module is very durable and has
no moving parts. A single cable attaches through an external connector
mounted on the vehicle. Inside, the Orion Interface Module provides
power to the sensor transmitter and communication ports for
both computer and Weather Display Console.
The 8-ft telescoping sensor mast is made of rugged anodized aluminum,
with heavy-duty, powdered-coated steel mounting brackets.
The built-in North Orientation Offset feature quickly and efficiently
orients wind direction readings. A permanent “snap-on” mounting
adapter allows you to quickly remove and reinstall the sensor head
without losing North orientation.
Monitoring Options
WeatherMaster™ is a professional monitoring and database
software which automatically interfaces with CAMEO/ALOHA software
for HazMat applications such as plume modeling.
CWS’s Weather Display Console is a dedicated, touch-screen
display that can be rack-mounted in the vehicle.
