RainWise Weather Stations HM-1 HAZMAT First Responder Portable Wireless Weather Monitoring System is designed for first responders to hazardous material incidents. The HAZMAT is designed for rapid deployment and can be setup by one person in less than 2 minutes. This device combines high performance and durability at an affordable price.
The HAZMAT station works in conjunction with CAMEO/ALOHA software which enables responders to evaluate and predict plume dispersion patterns.
Features:
- Rapid Deployment: HM-1 is packed in a single heavy duty transport case
- Case contains the tripod, sensor assembly, display and battery chargers
- Sensor assembly fits into the case as a single unit and does not require any assembly
- Display is housed in its own self contained case that fits into the main transport case
- Tripod has twist-locking connections and does not require any tools – it takes less than 2 minutes to get the system setup and operational
- Electronic Compass: sensor assembly contains an internal electronic compass that ensures that the reported wind direction is accurate regardless of the assembly's orientation
- Battery Operated: weather station sensor assembly is powered from four alkaline D cells
- For fixed installations extension cables are available for permanently connecting power
- Display also contains re-chargeable lead-acid batteries.
- Can be powered from 12 Volts DC or 110 VAC (with the transformer provided), allowing the display to be permanently installed in a vehicle or control room
- Spread Spectrum Radios: FCC approved 900 MHz spread-spectrum radios are used to ensure quality interference free reception between the station and display even at ranges of up to 7 miles
- Ranges in excess of a 1/4 mile require clear line of sight
- Computer Interface: Integrated serial interface that is compatible with CAMEO/ALOHA – an industry standard software suite developed by the EPA and NOAA specifically for hazmat teams
- Free software
- Radiation Detector: sensor assembly includes a nuclear radiation detector for early warning and general monitoring of radiation levels
- Display shows both the current level in REMs and total exposure in REM hours. Note: This sensor is designed to function as an early warning and does not replace hand held Geiger counters.
- Sensors: HM-1 has all standard wind speed, wind direct and temperature sensors required by CAMEO/ALOHA
- Display reports barometric pressure, relative humidity, dew point, heat index and nuclear radiation
- LED Display: display uses seven segment LED display for reporting parameters which have the advantage over LCD displays in that they are bright and easily readable at a distance even in low light conditions
- No limited viewing angle as is common with LCD displays
- Multiple Units / Multiple Displays: Sensors may be coded so that one site can use multiple systems without the chance of interference; alternatively one HSA-1 sensor assembly can be used with multiple RDI-1 displays
- Rugged Construction: sensor assembly is constructed of durable polyvinyl chloride, fiberglass and aluminum which are non-corrosive and non-sparking
- Wind sensor is made from durable Lexan/ABS and is strong enough to be permanently attached to the sensor assembly
- Setup and take down are quick and easy
- Display is built into a durable plastic carry case that simply closes when not in use and requires no other packaging
- 5 year manufacturer warranty
