Meteorology Sensors

Temperature Sensors
Air Temperature ICT International manufactures a range of "smart" temperature sensors for various environmental applications ranging from measurement of ambient conditions and crop temperature monitoring, to cattle comfort (heat stress) analysis.
Soil Temperature
Thermocouple Smart Interface The TT4 is a digital interface to allow connection of thermocouple temperature sensors to the SL5 SmartLogger.
Thermistor Smart Interface The TR4 is a digital interface to allow connection of thermistor temperature sensors to the SL5 Smart Logger. It provides a means of connecting up to four thermistors of the specified type to the system.
Relative Humidity & Barometric Pressure Sensors
Relative Humidity The "smart" HU1 Relative Humidity Sensor by ICT International utilises an active polymer capacitor as a sensing element to provide reliable readings of relative humidity with minimum maintenance.
Combined Relative Humidity & Air Temperature The HT1 humidity and air temperature sensor combines the functions of the TA1 and HU1 sensors into one convenient dual-purpose housing.
Barometric Pressure ICT International has designed a reliable and stable Barometric Pressure Sensor (BP1) for environmental and meteorological monitoring applications.  
Wind Speed & Direction Sensors
Anemometer Used to monitor wind speed, wind run and wind gust, ICT International's range of 'smart' digital wind speed sensors combine robust design with accuracy and a low starting threshold for sensitivity in a wide range of operating conditions.
Wind Vane (Direction) Sensor The "smart" WD2 Wind Direction Sensor by ICT International overcomes the "deadband" problem associated with conventional potentiometer type wind direction sensors.
Solar Radiation Sensors

Solar Radiation (and optional Sunshine Hours)

Quantum PAR

The SR2 is a solar radiation shortwave (global) spectrum sensor with a spectral response from 400 to 950 nanometres, which is used to record sunshine hours or total incident solar energy. The PR1 Photosynthetic Active Radiation (PAR) sensor has a similar construction to the SR2 but with a spectral response range from 400 to 700 nanometres.
Net Pyrradiometer The CN1-R Net Pyrradiometer measures the net total radiation flux (solar, terrestrial, and atmospheric) downward and upward through a horizontal surface. It is suitable for solar energy studies in agriculture and meteorology.
Rain Gauges & Pluviometers
Tipping Bucket Rain Gauges A range of rain gauges are available to suit your application and budget. Rain gauges are available separately or combined with loggers (below) as complete pluviometers.
Research-Grade Pluviometer PLV2 ICT’s PLV2 Pluviometer consists of a tipping bucket rain gauge with 0.2mm tip and Mini-Log Datalogger, offering a stand-alone measurement system suitable for any short- or long-term application.
Commercial-Grade Pluviometer PLVEM50-100 ICT's PLVEM50 Pluviometer consists of a tipping-bucket rain gauge with 0.2 mm tip and EM50B data logger.
Low-cost Pluviometers PLVEM5-50 and PLVEM5-100 ICT's PLVEM5 Pluviometer consists of a EM5B logger with either a ECRN50 tipping-bucket raingauge (1mm tip) or ECRN100 raingauge (0.2mm tip).
Drainage Flow Measurement ICT's Flow Gauge is considered to be one of the most accurate flow gauges used for measuring water flow coming out of a pipe or a drain. When connected to a data logger, the data can be stored and collected when required.

LWS Brochure (140K PDF)

The Dielectric Leaf Wetness Sensor (LWS) enables accurate and affordable leaf wetness
monitoring. The Leaf Wetness Sensor determines the presence and duration of wetness on a leaf’s surface, enabling researchers and producers to forecast disease
and protect plant canopies.
Leaf Wetness ICT International's LW2 and LWH leaf wetness sensors replicates the effect of moisture on leaf or artificial surfaces and can be used for a variety of situations such as leaf wetness, rain event or other applications where over-spray events need to be monitored or controlled.
Evaporation Pans
Class A Evaporation Pan APAN The Class A Evaporation Pan is a standard Bureau of Meteorology Class A type for measurement of water evaporation.
