Furuno WS-200 Weather Station

  • Ultrasonic Weather Station detects instantaneous changes in the weather
  • Provides essential weather readings with no moving parts
  • Continuous operation in adverse weather conditions
  • Standard 1″ mount accommodates existing mounted hardware
  • Supports both NMEA2000 and NMEA 0183

The WS-200 Weather Station incorporates an NMEA 2000 port which can be directly connected to a NavNet 3D radar sensor. Power for the WS-200 is supplied from an NMEA 2000® bus. This unique feature allows for flexible installation of multiple NMEA 2000 sensors without the need to run cables all the way to the main processor unit. NMEA 2000 data is converted and distributed throughout the NavNet 3D Ethernet network.
