Ultrasonic Weather Sensors

Over time, there have been significant advances in the tools used to measure weather. That includes advanced technology, new designs, and improved materials. Those advances give professional and novice weather enthusiasts alike some fantastic options. One of these is the ultrasonic weather station.

The Comptus A70H-UWS ultrasonic weather station from Comptus stands out provides accurate measurements of up to seven different parameters:

  • Wind speed and direction
  • Atmospheric pressure
  • Humidity
  • Temperature
  • Rainfall
  • Solar radiation

To measure wind speed and direction, the device uses ultrasonic waves. To detect rainfall, it relies on 24G radar. The A70H-UWS has an IP65 rating and can withstand temperatures between -40 degrees Celsius to +80 degrees Celsius. ABS is the main construction material used to make this automatic weather station.

To obtain accurate and reliable weather measurements, contact Comptus about the A70H-UWS ultrasonic weather station. Comptus is one of the industry’s leading producers of top-quality wind and industrial environmental sensors, transmitters, and controls.

Advanced Ultrasonic Technology

The Comptus ultrasonic weather station uses a 4-head ultrasonic transducer array to accurately measure wind speed and direction. Internal digital sensors record temperature and humidity, while a 24 GHz Doppler radar sensor detects rainfall intensity and accumulation. This seamless combination of ultrasonic and radar technologies ensures consistent performance across changing environmental conditions.

Because it has no moving parts, the sensor is unaffected by mechanical drag, ice buildup, or wear delivering accurate readings even during extreme weather.

Key Measured Parameters:

  • Wind speed and direction

  • Air temperature and humidity

  • Barometric pressure

  • Rainfall (via radar)

  • Solar radiation (optional)

Why Choose a Comptus Ultrasonic Weather Station?

Comptus brings over 30 years of experience in precision environmental instrumentation. Our ultrasonic weather station stands out for its durability, accuracy, and integration flexibility.

Benefits include:

  • All-in-one weather monitoring – Multiple atmospheric parameters in one compact system.

  • Maintenance-free design – No moving parts to clean, lubricate, or replace.

  • High accuracy and fast response – Real-time data for quick decision-making.

  • Rugged construction – UV-stabilized ABS housing with IP65 protection for outdoor durability.

  • Easy system integration – Supports RS-485, Modbus, and SDI-12 for use with SCADA, BMS, or IoT platforms.

  • Wide operating range – Performs reliably from –40 °C to +80 °C in harsh outdoor environments.

How It Works

Ultrasonic weather stations transmit sound pulses between transducers in opposing directions. When air moves, it changes the time it takes for the sound to travel. By analyzing this difference, the system accurately calculates wind speed and direction.

At the same time, integrated sensors capture temperature, humidity, and pressure, while radar measures precipitation intensity. The result is a complete, continuous stream of environmental data without the maintenance burden of mechanical sensors.

Applications

The Comptus Ultrasonic Weather Station is ideal for a variety of professional and industrial applications:

  • Meteorology & Weather Research – High-accuracy data for local and regional climate studies.

  • Agriculture & Smart Farming – Optimize irrigation, spraying, and crop protection using live environmental readings.

  • Smart Cities & Infrastructure – Support air quality and environmental monitoring networks.

  • Building Automation & HVAC Systems – Adjust ventilation and temperature control based on outdoor weather.

  • Renewable Energy – Monitor wind and solar conditions for improved turbine and panel efficiency.

  • Educational & Research Institutions – Ideal for field research and teaching weather science.

Installation & Integration

Installing the ultrasonic weather station is simple. Mount it on a standard pole or mast at least 3 meters above ground level for optimal airflow. The sensor connects easily via RS-485, Modbus, or SDI-12 interfaces, making it compatible with most data loggers, PLCs, and control systems.

Each unit is factory-calibrated and ready to deploy with minimal setup,  perfect for plug-and-play integration in environmental monitoring networks or industrial automation systems.

Frequently Asked Questions on Ultrasonic Weather Station

How does an ultrasonic weather station work?

 It sends ultrasonic pulses between sensors; differences in travel time reveal wind speed and direction, while built-in sensors track other atmospheric conditions.

What are the benefits of ultrasonic weather stations?

They’re maintenance-free, highly accurate, and durable, with no moving parts to wear out or freeze,  ideal for harsh or remote environments.

How accurate are ultrasonic weather stations?

They typically measure wind speed within ±0.3 m/s and direction within ±2°, providing more consistent results than traditional mechanical systems.

Can they be used in extreme weather?

 Yes. Most units are IP65-rated and operate reliably in temperatures from –40 °C to +80 °C.

Do ultrasonic weather stations need maintenance?

Minimal maintenance is required, just occasional cleaning and periodic calibration for best accuracy.

What parameters can they measure?

Depending on the model, they measure wind speed, wind direction, temperature, humidity, barometric pressure, rainfall, and sometimes solar radiation.

Who uses ultrasonic weather stations?

They’re used in meteorology, agriculture, smart cities, renewable energy sites, and research for reliable, real-time environmental monitoring.

How do I install one?

Mount it on a pole or mast with unobstructed airflow and connect via RS-485, Modbus, or SDI-12 to your data system.
