WeatherFile GSM Connected Tower Crane System Description

The WeatherFile GSM Connected Tower Crane System is a unique internet connected weather station designed specifically for construction sites and tower cranes, the rugged durable design with IP67 rated enclosure makes it ideal for the harsh construction site environment. The system delivers wind measurements to the appropriate industry standards including IEC-61400 as well as a full list of other weather parameters if required.

At the heart of the WeatherFile GSM Connected Tower Crane System is the WeatherFile Communication Unit (WCU) which provides the means of connecting the weather sensors via GSM cellular network to WeatherFile.com. Data is viewable on WeatherFile.com and is also directly accessible within 50m of the WCU using its own WiFi on a local display page.

The WeatherFile Communication Unit (WCU) is housed in a tough, weatherproof (IP67) enclosure with high quality Binder plug connectors, one cable connects the sensor to the WCU, and the system is powered via 12Vdc making installation incredibly simple and cost effective.

In addition, the WeatherFile Communication Unit (WCU) has a host of features to ensure the system operates consistently at the highest level:
• Data logged even if internet connection lost, data will catch up once connection restored
• Power control system manages individual system elements
• Data delivery to WeatherFile can be scheduled to reduce power consumption
