Dyacon, Inc. has turned its experience developing rugged computers into an effort of personal interest to our team: weather instrumentation.

We are pleased to announce the Dyacon product line, which contains weather instruments designed and manufactured in the United States. Dyacon products use sensing elements found in top-of-the line instruments. Direct sales to end users and value-added resellers allow us to keep costs low.

In the wind sensor, you’ll notice a non-contact wind direction sensing element. Most other wind vanes use a potentiometer.

Both wind sensors and air sensors utilize a Modbus data interface for compatibility with programmable logic controllers (PLCs). SDI‑12 is also an option, but it is available only to value-added resellers. The control modules also include a Modbus slave port for connecting a whole weather station to a Modbus host device.

The weather station control modules are highly integrated to improve reliability and value. The single control module circuit board includes all data interfaces, analog ports, logging memory, lightning detector, solar charge controller, LCD, wireless transceiver, and other features. Tight integration enhances power optimization and reduces installation complexity.

We are anxious to hear your input and suggestions. Please drop us a note. Even better, buy something and send us a picture.
