Product Details
Ultrasonic 220WX Wind Transducer by Furuno®. The 220WX Ultrasonic Weather Station detects instantaneous changes in the weather, offering continuous operation even in adverse weather conditions. This all-in-one weather sensor measures apparent and true wind speed, and direction, air temperature and wind chill temperature. The 220WX also incorporates a 3-Axis solid-state compass and 3-Axis Rate Gyro for best-in-class compass and pitch/roll accuracy. The 220WX supports both CanBUS/NMEA2000 and NMEA0183 and incorporates an NMEA2000 port, and can be directly connected to a NavNet TZtouch2/TZtouch and NavNet 3D. Power for the 220WX is supplied from an NMEA2000 bus. This unique feature allows for flexible installation of multiple NMEA2000 sensors without the need to run cables all the way to the main processor unit. NMEA2000 data is converted and distributed throughout the NavNet TZtouch2/TZtouch/NavNet 3D Ethernet network. Standard 1" mount accommodates existing mounted hardware. The UV stabilized, compact housing is fully waterproof and resistant to both chemicals and sunlight.
