The latest in weather technology! Our Vantage Pro 2 Plus weather stations offer everything found on our Vantage Pro 2 weather stations, plus solar radiation and UV sensors
You'll get forecasting, on-screen graphing, and much more. Quick view icons show the forecast at a glance—sunny, partly sunny, cloudy, rain or snow—while a moving ticker-tape display gives more details.
Our integrated sensor suite combines all the outdoor sensors into one package—making setup easier than ever and improving performance and reliability. Rain collector, anemometer, and temperature, humidity, solar radiation, and UV sensors are all included.
For improved accuracy, temperature and humidity sensors are housed inside a radiation shield. The shield protects against solar radiation and other sources of radiated and reflected heat. | |

Technical details |
| | Delivered With
Vantage Pro 2 console
Integrated sensor suite, mounting hardware and AC-power adapter
Integrated sensor suite includes:
Rain collector
Temperature and humidity sensors
Anemometer - 40' (12m) anemometer cable
Solar radiation sensor, UV sensor and sensor mounting shelf
A 100' (30 m) cable connects the sensor suite to the console
|
|
| | Technical Data
Temperature and humidity sensors are enclosed in our standard radiation shield
Electronic components are housed in a weather-resistant shelter
Console may be powered using the included AC-power adapter or with three C batteries (not included)
The cabled Vantage Pro 2 plus includes all of the features of the Vantage Pro 2 standard plus everything you need for reading:
UV index and dose
Solar Radiation
Evapotranspiration
The UV and the solar radiation sensors are pre-installed on the sensor mounting shelf
|
|
| | Rain Collector
With it's self emptying tipping bucket is exceptionally accurate
You can read rainfall amount in 0.01" or 0.2mm increments
Designed to meet the guidelines of the World Meteorological Organization, the Davis aluminium plated tipping bucket is corrosion-resistant and laser calibrated for accuracy
|
|
| | Anemometer
The anemometer includes both wind speed and direction sensors
Rugged components stand up to hurricane force winds, yet are sensitive to the lightest breeze
The anemometer is wind-tunnel tested to speeds in excess of 170 miles per hour (274 km/h)
|
|
| | Temperature and Humidity Sensors
These are located within the radiation shield
The shield protects the sensors from solar radiation and other sources of radiated and reflected heat
|
|
| | Cabled Integrated Sensor Suite
The ISS runs on AC power
|
|
| | Solar Radiation Sensor
To measure solar radiation and solar energy
The diffuser element and housing are carefully designed for accurate cosine response
Silicon photo diode provides good match to solar spectrum
Two-piece housing minimizes radiation heating, allows convection cooling of the sensor, and prevents the trapping of water or dust
Includes 3' (0.9m) cable
For extension use standard 4 core conductor cable (7876-??? available in 2.4m, 12m or 30m)
Maximum cable length is 125' (38m) from sensor to integrated sensor suite
|
|
| | UV Sensor
Measures the sunburning portion of the UV spectrum
Allows you to display UV index, dose rate, daily and accumulated dose
Multi-layer filter provides a spectral response that closely matches the Erythema Action Spectrum
Diffuser provides excellent cosine response
Two piece housing minimizes radiation heating, allows convection cooling of the sensor, and prevents the trapping of water or dust
Includes 3' (0.9m) cable
For extension use standard 4 core conductor cable (7876-??? available in 2.4m, 12m or 30m)
Maximum cable length is 125' (38m) from sensor to integrated sensor suite

For the ultimate in weather monitoring, add WeatherLink to your Vantage Pro 2. The data logger fits neatly into the weather station console or Weather Envoy, storing weather data even when it’s not connected to your PC. Later, download the data and use the software to create graphs, generate summaries, and more.
WeatherLink SER System Requirements:
Requires Windows 95/NT4.0/98SE/2000/ME/XP with serial port.
Weather website features require Internet Explorer 4 or above
WeatherLink USB System Requirements:
Requires Windows 98SE/2000/ME/XP with USB port
Includes:
Software on CD
Data logger
8’ (2.4 M) cable to connect the data logger to your computer
Choose a logging interval of 1, 5, 10, 15, 30, 60, or 120 minutes
Depending on the logging interval, store up to six months of data before downloading
