Effective management of pesticide drift is increasingly important to pesticide
applicators. Now you can monitor and data log weather conditions with the ultrasonic
WatchDog Sprayer Station. Accurate data helps pesticide applicators make important
decisions regarding weather conditions that affect safety, drift, and proper pesticide
application. User controlled data logging of weather conditions provides evidence
of suitable conditions for pesticide application.
Smaller than a can of soda, this all-in-one weather station measures air temperature,
humidity, dew point, wind chill, barometric pressure and apparent wind speed
and direction. It handles adverse conditions with a UV stabilized, compact housing
that is fully waterproof and resistant to chemicals. Reliability is enhanced
by eliminating moving parts: the traditional wind vane and cups have been replaced
with ultrasonic transducers.
The WatchDog Sprayer Station is more than a compact and capable weather station.
While on-the-go, the station uses its internal compass and GPS to adjust the
wind sensor values by subtracting the vehicle speed and direction to compute
the true wind speed and direction.
Display current conditions: wind speed & direction, temperature, humidity,
barometric pressure, and GPS parameters (vehicle speed & direction, location,
and satellite signal strength). Continuously log your weather parameters at
a user-selectable rate or hit the snapshot button to capture current conditions
WatchDog Sprayer System Sensors:
