Capricorn FLX™ weather station’s modular design offers flexible parameter selection for optimal sensor location. Low power consumption makes this system compatible with alternate power sources such as solar and battery where required.

The Control Module can accepts signal inputs from the following meteorological sensors:

• Mechanical wind direction and speed (heavy-duty, heated available)
• Relative humidity
• Temperature (up to four total; air, soil and/or water)
• Barometric pressure (internal to Control Module)
• Rain gauge (tipping bucket)
• Solar radiation (up to two total)
• Two general purpose analog channels for additional sensors

The Capricorn FLX is available in three configurations:  fixed-mount, vehicle-mount, and the Pegasus FLX™ portable weather station. Meteorological data can be monitored with:  Weather Display Console™ , Weather Master ™ Software,  Weather MicroServer™ , 4-20 mA signal output.
