Airmar Weather Stations
Airmar WeatherStation instruments (compact, maintenance-free ultrasonic multisensors with no moving parts) measure apparent wind, barometric pressure, air temperature, and wind chill in one housing. An optional field-serviceable humidity module adds relative and absolute humidity, dew point, and heat index. GPS/compass models (from the 150WX up to the 2026 300WX flagship) add dynamic true wind, position, and compass and rate-gyro stabilization. The 150WXRS also adds acoustic rainfall.

IPX6. Superseded by the 300WX in 2026. | |
|
200WX-IPX7 | Waterproof (IPX7) 200WX for buoys and unmanned surface vessels; the same suite without the RH option: apparent and dynamic true wind, barometric pressure, air temperature, wind chill, GPS, a three-axis stabilized compass, rate gyro, and pitch/roll. Superseded by the 300WX-IP67 in 2026. | |
|
220WX | Commercial-fishing WeatherStation: apparent and theoretical (true) wind, barometric pressure, air temperature, wind chill, 10 Hz GPS, a three-axis stabilized compass, rate gyro, and pitch/roll; an optional RH module adds dew point and heat index. IPX6. No longer manufactured. | |
|
220WXH | Heated commercial WeatherStation (12-24 VDC): apparent and dynamic true wind, barometric pressure, air temperature, 10 Hz GPS, a three-axis stabilized compass, rate gyro, and pitch/roll; no RH, NMEA 0183 only. IPX4. | |
|
300WX | New-for-2026 ultrasonic flagship replacing the 200WX: apparent and dynamic true wind, barometric pressure, air temperature, GNSS (position/COG/SOG), a three-axis stabilized compass, rate gyro, and pitch/roll; an optional field-serviceable RH module adds dew point and heat index. Bluetooth/CAST app, J1939, and ISOBUS output. IP64. | |
|
300WX-IP67 | New-for-2026 waterproof flagship replacing the 200WX-IPX7. It carries the same suite as the 300WX without RH (apparent and dynamic true wind, barometric pressure, air temperature, GNSS, a three-axis stabilized compass, rate gyro, and pitch/roll), plus Bluetooth/CAST app, J1939, and ISOBUS output. IP67, built for offshore, buoys, and USVs. |

What Airmar Weather Stations Get From Aethair
Connected through Thiamis, its readings arrive in the same Environet account as Aethair's own monitors.
Live data and alerts
Environet shows the instrument live and alerts the people you choose by email, SMS, and webhook, at the thresholds you set. Noesis sets up a dashboard, a report, or an alert from a plain-text request.
Compliance reports
Aethair Reports produces scheduled or on-demand reports from the instrument's readings, as a PDF or secure link. Templates cover Aethair Blue, WELL v2, cabin air (ISO 23875), and the CMS-2567 healthcare codebook (ASHRAE 170), or you can report against custom limits such as OSHA PELs, NAAQS, EPA guidance, or your own program limits.
Dashboards and the app
Environet dashboards and the Aethair App show the instrument's readings just like any Aethair device. The occupant-facing Aethair Dashboards status display is built around Aethair IAQ and Aethair PRO.

Questions
Airmar Weather Stations FAQ
What data does an Airmar WeatherStation output, and what is WIMDA?
Airmar WeatherStations stream NMEA 0183 sentences at 4800 baud (and NMEA 2000 over CAN). WIMDA is the 'meteorological composite' sentence: one message carrying barometric pressure, air temperature, relative and absolute humidity, and dew point. Wind speed and angle arrive in the WIMWV sentence, while calculated wind chill and heat index, and rainfall (accumulation, duration, and intensity), come as transducer (XDR) sentences.
What is the difference between apparent and dynamic true wind?
Apparent wind is what the sensor measures: the actual wind combined with the platform's own motion. Dynamic true wind is the real wind over ground, which the GPS/compass models (150WX and up, including the 300WX) derive by removing the platform's own speed and heading from the apparent wind. Wind-only models such as the 110WX report apparent wind only.
Does the Airmar have moving parts or need calibration?
No. Wind is measured ultrasonically by timing sound between transducers, so there are no cups or vanes to wear out or ice up. It is maintenance-free with no field calibration. The heated models (120WXH, 220WXH) add a thermostatic element that keeps the wind channel clear of snow and ice.
Which parameters need the optional humidity module?
Relative and absolute humidity, dew point, and heat index all come from the field-serviceable RH module; wind, barometric pressure, air temperature, and wind chill are always reported without it. RH is standard on the land models (110WXS, 150WXS, 150WXRS), optional on most others, and unavailable on the sealed models (200WX-IPX7, 220WXH, 300WX-IP67).
