WS6 Weather Sensor
A compact weather sensor from LAMBRECHT meteo, an AEM brand, Germany. With no moving parts this is a low maintenance sensor. An internal intelligent heating system works in relation to the wind speed and direction and keeps the sensor ice-free even under extreme weather conditions.
