In maritime installations according to IEC 60945, WMT700 belongs to installation category C, which means that it is exposed to weather.

Vaisala recommends using the WMT700FIX60-MARINE adapter in marine installations. It is a stainless steel mounting adapter for a 60-mm tube with a plastic insulator. It is designed for marine installations and the cable is outside the mast.

When making maritime installations, note the following:

  • Do not install WMT700 near a magnetic compass. The compass safe distance is 5 m.
  • Do not place WMT700 directly in front of a radar.
  • Do not install WMT700 next to a powerful RF-transmitter antenna.
