Application
MP500 Weather Station for Marine Monitoring Buoys
Reliable Measurements in Harsh Marine Conditions
Offshore buoys operate under constant exposure to high humidity, rain, salt spray, strong winds and continuous movement. The THETA MP500 provides a compact integrated meteorological sensing solution for marine monitoring platforms.


High Humidity and Water Resistance
The marine environment creates persistent moisture exposure, including rainfall, condensation and sea spray. Weather-resistant sensor construction, sealed cable connections and proper installation practices help support dependable unattended operation.
Salt-Spray Resistance with Teflon (PTFE)
Teflon (PTFE) provides excellent resistance to saline and chemically aggressive environments. Its use in suitable exposed components supports long-term durability, while the complete installation must also protect electrical connectors and metallic hardware.
GPS and Compass-Assisted Wind Correction
Unlike fixed land stations, buoys drift, rotate and change heading. Compass information helps convert sensor-relative wind direction to geographic direction, while GPS-derived velocity can be used to correct apparent wind for platform movement. Accurate true-wind results require suitable integration and, where needed, additional pitch-and-roll compensation.
Designed for Remote Offshore Monitoring
The field installation shows the MP500 integrated with a solar-powered marine buoy. Compact instrumentation helps reduce mounting complexity and supports monitoring in locations where maintenance access is limited.
Applications
Coastal weather networks • Offshore wind monitoring • Oceanographic buoys • Marine environmental research • Remote observation stations
Note: Exact MP500 protection ratings, PTFE component specifications, and integrated GPS/compass capabilities should be confirmed for the supplied
