Davis Instruments 6263 Vantage Pro2 Plus Wireless Weather Station with Fan Aspirated Shield

The Davis Instruments 6263 Vantage Pro2 Plus Wireless Weather Station gives serious weather enthusiasts and professional observers real-time local weather data. It combines a wireless sensor suite with a 24-hour fan-aspirated radiation shield, UV and solar radiation sensors, and the WeatherLink Console. The sensor suite is built for rugged environments and is designed to deliver reliable data year after year.

Weather Station Features:

• Real-time data updates every 2.5 seconds
• Outside temperature and humidity sensors housed in a 24-hour fan-aspirated radiation shield for accuracy
• Sensor suite also reports wind speed and direction, rainfall, UV and solar radiation
• Transmission range of 1,000 ft (300 m) from the sensor suite to the console
• Anemometer can be mounted up to 40 ft (12 m) from the rest of the sensor suite for flexible siting
• Rugged, weather-proof sensor suite housing
• Sensor suite is solar-powered with battery backup; the console is AC-powered with battery backup
• Mounting hardware included; mounting pole sold separately

WeatherLink Console (6313):

• HD color touchscreen for viewing and analyzing weather data
• Customizable dashboard showing up to 21 parameters
• Historical records stored on the console for custom graphs and analysis
• Alerts with a choice of hundreds of parameters and a dozen sounds
• Works as a standalone display, storage and analysis tool with no Wi-Fi required; optional Wi-Fi connection uploads data to the WeatherLink Cloud
• Receives data from a Vantage Pro2 or Vantage Vue sensor suite, or a custom network of multiple Davis sensors

24-Hour Fan-Aspirated Radiation Shield:

• Solar- and battery-powered, motor-driven fan draws constant airflow through the sensor chamber for more accurate temperature readings than passive shielding alone
• Airflow of 500 feet per minute (2.5 m/s) in daylight; at night the fan runs on battery and airflow slows to 280 feet per minute (1.4 m/s)
• Sensor chamber measures 2.24 in x 3 in (56.8 mm x 76.2 mm) and accepts your own sensor
• Includes 10 plates, rechargeable batteries, mounting hardware and a 25 ft (7.6 m) cable

UV Sensor:

• Measures the sunburning portion of the UV spectrum and reports UV index, dose rate, and daily and accumulated dose
• Measures global solar UV irradiance, including directly transmitted and scattered UV
• Diffuser and cutoff ring with comb structure provide cosine response of ±4% FS
• Two-piece housing minimizes radiation heating, allows convection cooling and prevents trapping of water or dust
