COMPACT WEATHER STATION

MaxiMet GMX200

Wind measurement in a compact all-in-one station.

GMX200 is the wind-only MaxiMet. It uses the same WindSonic ultrasonic wind element as the rest of the range, in a 0.5 kg unit with one cable and one output string, for installations that need wind and nothing else from a single mounting point.

WHERE IT SITS

MaxiMet GMX200 in the MaxiMet range

The MaxiMet GMX200 is the appropriate configuration where the requirement is wind speed and direction, and the parameters it does not carry are provided elsewhere or not needed.

MEASUREMENT

What the MaxiMet GMX200 measures

The MaxiMet GMX200 is configured to measure wind speed and direction. The MaxiMet GMX200 does not measure air temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, rainfall or solar radiation.

Wind0 to 60 m/s, ultrasonic, no moving parts

BEFORE YOU SPECIFY

Is the MaxiMet GMX200 the correct configuration?

Before specifying, confirm:

  • the parameters the application actually requires
  • whether wind is needed at this location or measured elsewhere
  • the operating temperature and whether heating is required
  • the ingress protection the installation demands
  • the mounting arrangement and available space
  • the interface and output the receiving system expects

If those match the specification above, the MaxiMet GMX200 provides that configuration at 0.5 kg.
