  • Page 14: Principles Of Measurement

    Orion LX Weather Station ____________________________________________________________________ Principles of Measurement Wind Measurement Both wind speed and direction are measured using advanced ultrasonic technology. The sensor utilizes ultrasound to determine horizontal wind readings. The array of three equally-spaced ultrasonic transducers on a horizontal plane is an ideal design that ensures accurate wind measurement from all directions, without blind angles or corrupted readings.
  • Page 15: Barometric Pressure, Temperature, And Relative Humidity (Ptu) Module

    Orion LX Weather Station ___________________________________________________________________ direction reported indicates the direction that the wind comes from. North is represented as 0° , east as 90° , south as 180° , and west as 270° . The wind direction is not calculated when the wind speed drops below 0.05 m/s.
  • Page 16: Rainfall Measurement

    Orion LX Weather Station ____________________________________________________________________ Rainfall Measurement Rainfall is measured with an impact sensor, which detects the size and impact of individual rain drops. The signals resulting from the impacts are proportional to the volume of the drops. Hence, the signal from each drop can be converted directly to the accumulated rainfall.
