Our
RAWS-H was designed to allow you to upgrade an existing Handar weather station to a Campbell Scientific RAWS system.
A RAWS-H
station
consists of a CR1000 datalogger and 12-volt battery, housed and
protected in an aluminum environmental enclosure that features a connector panel compatible with Handar sensors. Our RAWS-H station is compatible with all of the communication
equipment our other RAWS products can use, such as telephones, digital cellular transceivers, and radios.
Features
Customers can replace a Handar Data Collection Platform with the RAWS-H enclosure and continue to use their existing Handar sensors and tower. The RAWS Handar connector panel has connectors for attaching Handar sensors (wind speed and direction, air temperature and relative humidity, precipitation and solar radiation). A wiring panel is provided that allows the attachment of additional sensors for measurements like barometric pressure, fuel moisture or temperature, snow depth, or stream flow.
Specifications
Standard temperature testing (-25° to +50°C) and calibration are
included for the CR1000 module. Customized Handar sensor programming
will be developed for a nominal fee. Communication options are
satellite transmitter and radio. The Vosponder voice option allows you
to call a RAWS-H via a hand-held radio and receive verbal reports of
real-time site conditions. For direct communications, a CR1000KD
Keyboard Display (included) can be used to set site-specific GOES
parameters and query the station. Additional communication equipment can be added to the station. For additional information, please call (435)750-1738 to speak with our RAWS
specialist.
