Ceilometer CHM 15k /CHM 15k - x

The family of CHM 15k ceilometers measures ceiling, boundary layer height and vertical visibility. The low-maintenance LIDAR sensor is designed to work autonomously at any climate and throughout the year

• Measures aerosol backscatter profiles up to 50.000 ft
• Calculates ceiling and penetration depths, MOR, PBL height
• Enhanced multi cloud layer and cirrus cloud detection
• Optimized for mixed layers, near ground aerosol studies (CHM 15k-x model)
• Data telegram output via RS485 (service: RS485 & LAN)
• Data telegrams selectable, including raw data (NetCDF)
• Autonomous operation, Service-friendly IP65 proof modular setup
• Simple and eye-safe routine operation (laser class 1M)
• Optional terminal client and visualization software
