Davis Vantage Pro2 PLUS - Wireless 6163 - 24hr Fan-Aspirated Radiation Shield

The Davis Vantage Pro2 Plus has all the features of the Vantage Pro2 with the addition of UV and solar radiation sensors. 

• Anemometer includes both wind speed and wind direction sensors.
• Rugged components stand up to hurricane-force winds, yet are sensitive to the lightest breeze. Wind-tunnel tested to speeds in excess of 170 miles per hour (274 km/h).
• The aluminum-plated tipping bucket in the rain collector is self emptying, corrosion resistant, and laser calibrated for exceptional accuracy. Unlike the smaller rain collectors sold elsewhere, the rain collector meets the guidelines of the World meteorological organization. Reads rainfall amounts in 0.01" or 0.2 mm increments.
• Temperature and humidity sensors are located inside the radiation shield. The shield protects the sensors from solar radiation and other sources of radiated and reflected heat.
• Weather-resistant shelter houses electronic components for added protection against the elements.
• Wireless stations use frequency hopping spread spectrum radio to connect back to the console.
• Graph last 24 hours, days, or months of readings or highs and lows. View over 80 graphs including additional analysis of temperature, rain, rain rate, wind, and barometric pressure. All without a computer!
• Set over 70 alarms for multiple functions simultaneously.
• Compass rose with 16 compass points shows current and dominant wind direction.
• View current data or highs and lows for up to 24 different days, months, or years.
• Five-position trend arrow shows whether barometric pressure is rising, falling, or stable.
• Fixed display area shows the most important weather variables at all times.
• Variable display area lets you pick between: Inside or additional temperatures or soil moisture; Inside or additional humidity, UV index, or leaf wetness; Wind chill, dew point, or two different heat indices
• View daily rain or rain for this storm. Umbrella icon appears when it is currently raining.
• View monthly or yearly rainfall, rain rate, evapotranspiration, or intensity of solar radiation.

• Outdoor temperature range --- -40.0C to + 65.0C (-40F to +149F)
• Indoor temperature range --- 0C to + 60.0C (32F to +140F)
• Humidity range --- 0% to 100%
• Rain volume display --- 0 to 9,999mm, resolution 0.25mm
• Wind speed --- 0 to 241 km/h
• Barometric pressure --- 18inHg to 33.5inHg
• Transmission range --- up to 300m (1,000 feet) line of site
• Power consumption --- solar power energizes the station during the day, on-board super capacitor provides power at night, lithium battery provides backup when needed
• Console may be powered using the included AC-power adapter or with three C batteries (not included).
• Transmission frequency --- spread spectrum
• Wireless range is up to 1000' (300 m) outdoors, line of sight. Typical range through walls under most conditions is 200' to 400' (60 to 120 m). Add wireless repeaters for distances up to 1.7 miles (2.7 km).

Includes:

• Vantage Pro2 console/receiver
• Integrated sensor suite, and mounting hardware.
  • Integrated sensor suite includes rain collector, temperature and humidity sensors, anemometer, 40' (12 m) anemometer cable, and solar panel. Electronic components are housed in a weather-resistant shelter.

Davis stations do not come with mounting poles so depending on what you have at your location you may require one of the following mounting solutions:

• Davis Mounting Pole Kit 
• Davis Mounting Tripod
