A flexible, scalable platform

Beam Weather Station supports a wide range of Vaisala and third-party sensors, making it suitable for a variety of applications, including air quality observation, heat wave tracking, urban flood monitoring, environmental traffic management, and many more. BWS500 can be scaled to support both small and large-scale weather observation networks.

Secure data connectivity

BWS500 takes care of the measurements, as well as data storage and transfer with Vaisala Edge Gateway EGW501. EGW501 provides secure data transfer between the sensors and Vaisala cloud or customer data collection systems.

BWS500 offers an option for an integrated SIM card and cellular data plan that makes the station ready for use as soon as it is installed. You can also use any compatible SIM card.

Easy installation

A range of options for mast, tripod, and wall mounting are available for the station hardware, enabling optimal installation regardless of the location. BWS500 is easy to install and requires minimal configuration.

Flexible powering solution

Power Supply Unit PSU501 is the powering solution for BWS500, designed to ensure uninterrupted power supply (UPS) to the station. PSU501 can be used where AC (mains) power is available; where it is not, PSU501 can work together with a solar panel or other DC power source.

Data sharing and management

BWS500 provides an MQTT interface for sending observations, device information, and device status to customer data collection systems. Alternatively, you can use the Vaisala cloud to collect and visualize measurement data from selected sensors.
