ORDERING INFORMATION
A22157 PB200 Weather Station
PB200 Weather station
The PB200 WeatherStation is ideally suited to use
on large powerboats. It has internal temperature
and barometric pressure sensors to help predict
changing weather patterns. Wind Speed and
Direction are measured using four ultrasonic
transducers. There are no moving parts, which
also helps to enhance durability and reliability. In
addition to the internal WAAS/EGNOS GPS engine,
the PB200 uses an integral three-axis solid-state
compass and wind sensor to provide both Apparent
and True Wind Speed and Direction without the
need for additional sensors. There is also an
internal heading sensor.
