SXW Weather sensors are designed for monitoring outdoor weather conditions in greenhouse control and 

other monitoring or control applications. SXW sensors feature temperature, relative humidity and light sen-

sors standard, with options for CO2, rain, wind speed and wind direction.

An optional mounting bracket kit allows the mounting of all sensors to a single 1” PVC or EMT conduit pole.
