High quality, easy-to-use, integrated weather station
MaxiMet GMX500 (MTI.AWS.GL.GMX500) compact weather stations are designed to be simple to install, use and maintain. In addition to providing measured parameters, the products derive additional parameters and data is output as a single string and available on a range of communications protocols.
MaxiMet weather stations benefit from the same technology used in Gill’s scientific product range, ensuring measurement accuracy, low maintenance and continuous status reporting.
