Featuring a compact, easy-to-deploy design
Overview
The ClimaVue™50 G2 is the next-generation all-in-one meteorological sensor from Campbell Scientific that combines all the typical weather parameters into one compact and rugged design. It improves on its predecessor with enhanced precipitation measurements, a redesigned wind sensor (0 to 60 m/s), and better UV resistance. The sensor has also been updated to use the new eight-pin M12 connector, seamlessly integrating with the Aspen™10 Edge Device for a plug-and-play installation.
The affordable ClimaVue 50 G2 reports various weather parameters via SDI-12, sips approximately 1 mA of power at 12 Vdc, and includes an integrated leveling base and tilt sensor for easy maintenance and monitoring. Perfect for quick deployment, remote locations, large networks, or simple setups, the ClimaVue 50 G2 is a superior and reliable choice.
