1. Introduction

MetPak II is a compact and lightweight multi-sensor instrument that measures the
most essential weather parameters. Gill ultrasonic technology, as used in the
proven WindSonic instrument, measures wind speed and direction. Temperature
and Humidity are measured and Dewpoint calculated using an industry standard
probe housed in a naturally aspirated radiation shield. Barometric pressure is
undertaken using an industry standard sensor. The instrument uses a rugged U-
bolt mounting clamp that attaches to any vertical pipe up to 50mm diameter.

The instrument is supplied with digital ASCII RS232/RS422 and digital SDI-12
outputs. An electrical junction box is fitted to the mounting bracket allowing
convenient termination of all electrical cables.
