[. . . ] www. vaisala. com Vaisala Maritime Observation System MAWS410 direction (relative wind, true wind, upwind), atmospheric pressure (QFF, QFE, QNH, pressure trends), air temperature, and humidity (dew point). The sensors are typically installed on a tiltable 3-meter mast. [. . . ] The MAWS410 is easy to install, and can be implemented quickly. It can withstand the salty and wet conditions that prevail aboard ships and platforms, and it also tolerates freeze and thaw conditions in extreme-weather environments. It is also endures vibration and shock. Built-in data validation Built-in algorithms test each measurement to ensure data quality. For every parameter, tests are carried out on the minimum and maximum readings, step limits, and the various parameters are cross-checked. When data is entered manually, quality checks ensure that the operator does not enter incorrect values. A built-in testing system continuously checks the sensors, reporting immediately if a fault occurs. An expansion memory for data storage is also available if not sent to an Advanced ship weather reports The system processes, displays, stores and transmits fully automated ship weather reports in the universal FM 13 SHIP (FM 13 XII) and IMMT-3 code formats around the globe in real time. These reports can be augmented with visual observations entered prior to transmission. Factors such as cloud type, past weather, weather phenomena, waves and swell, as well as sea-ice and/or ice accretion onboard are added by using Vaisala Observation Console software. Measurement parameters The basic weather parameters measured are wind speed and Technical data General Data Collection Platform Vaisala Data Logger QML201 Temperature Operating *) -50 . . . 100 %RH In compliance with Lloyd's Register (LR) Type Approval System, Test Specification Number 1; 2002, Performance and Environmental Test Specification for the Environmentally Tested Products used in Marine and Offshore Applications, and IEC 60945 International Standard, 4th edition, 2002-08, Maritime Navigation and Radiocommunication Equipment and Systems - General Requirements Methods of Testing and Required Test Results, as follows: Vibration IEC 60068-2-6/IEC 60945 Shock MIL-STD-202G, Method 213B, cond.
