Supercooled, FZRA, FZDZ, FZFG, and black ice. Our "Precipitation Analyzer" detects and accurately quantifies precipitation.

Our cutting edge technology detects and measures different precipitation types, especially supercooled precipitation. Thanks to the unique design with a pyramid-shaped measuring surface made of special ceramic material and resistant glass coating, we detect precise surface temperatures. The sensor uses as measurement principles the analysis of temperature peaks to detect the heat of crystallization and the different dielectric properties of water and ice. This enables very accurate discrimination and quantification of precipitation incidents, including phase changes. The analyzer is ideal for early warning systems in traffic applications, on roads, bridges, airports, marine and industrial applications where icing poses a safety risk. With its advanced method for early detection of supercooled precipitation, the device contributes to efficient winter maintenance and timely initiation of safety measures. The device was developed and tested with the German Weather Service (Deutscher Wetter Dienst DWD) for use at airports.
Various telegrams can be selected via RS 485 in ASCII format. We recommend the Thies Clima data logger "DLU-E", commercially available serial data loggers are also possible.

Due to the sharp drop in demand, an economic continuation of these traditional meteorological instruments is unfortunately no longer possible. This marks the end of an era at Thies that began over 70 years ago with the production of thermo- and hygro-graphs. In the meantime, high-precision electronic sensors and associated data loggers dominate the recording of meteorological measured variables. The supply of spare parts and consumables for the mechanical instruments, which are used thousands of times worldwide, is still ensured. For larger quantities, we will be happy to consider post-production. Discover modern alternatives from our company, such as the new HTB or HT Sensor Compact, when combined with the HandyLog.

Mobile weather data acquisition for fire brigades!

Thies Clima equips more than 100 fire brigade vehicles with the powerful Clima Sensor US weather stations, thus ensuring a reliable real-time data basis for fast and well-founded decisions during rescue and protection operations. The robust weather station, which is suitable for everyday use, can be seamlessly integrated into various fleets and offers a wide range of precise measurements in the smallest of spaces. With their compact design, the stations measure relative humidity, ambient temperature, wind speed and direction, barometric pressure, brightness, precipitation amount, intensity and type. The stations also offer data such as TrueWInd, Windchill or Heatindex. Robustness, durability, as well as high measurement accuracy, proven long-term availability and fast delivery times make the Clima Sensor US the optimal weather station for mobile use by fire brigades and rescue services.

If you are interested in further information on the design and implementation of Clima Sensor US weather stations in #firefighting vehicles, I recommend you take a look at the next THW Journal. Alternatively, you can contact #ThiesClima directly, either by emailing info@thiesclima.com with the keyword "Mobile weather station for emergency vehicles" or via DM. We look forward to providing you with more details!

Measure and improve air quality together - get on board! As a Smart City model city, Mannheim is working on concepts and implementations of a sustainable and liveable city of tomorrow, carried out by Smart City Mannheim GmbH. One innovative approach is the use of trams as mobile measuring stations for weather and environmental data. The trams are equipped with Thies Clima sensors to record weather data such as air temperature, humidity, wind speed and direction as well as air quality. GPS and electronic magnetic compass allow more precise data to be collected for the current location. With its own sensors optimised for mobile applications, Thies Clima offers solutions for the growing need for data-based environmental management in urban areas.

High measuring quality and robust, reliable technology

The Hygro-Thermo-Pressure (H T P) sensors of our COMPACT series are designed to measure relative humidity, air temperature and atmospheric pressure.

This sensor is well suited for use at meteorological measuring stations and for connection to data logger systems. Due to its universal interface, the sensor can also be used as a single solution in any suitable application.

The excellent dynamics due to the separately positioned temperature sensor and the use of stainless steel as the housing material, as well as the protection class IP 67, are the special features of this sensor. This allows it to be used even in applications with the highest stresses.

The outstanding features of the sensor are:• high long-term stability,

• almost linear characteristic curve,
• very good dynamic behaviour,
• resistance to condensation,
• low temperature coefficient,
• lowest hysteresis.

Hygro-Thermo-Baor Sensor Compact (1.1006.54.xxx)

The internal WEB server displays the instantaneous measuring values clearly-arranged as text and as diagram. The measuring values are, device-specifically, prepared by the WEB server and optimally displayed, depending if the data query comes from PC, tablet and smartphone. A simple data visualization is, thus, possible without additional software.

Watch now

The datalogger records measuring values via two serial interfaces RS485/422, and via integrated analogue and digital input channels. The serial interfaces are designed for the connection of sensors with THIES data protocol. It is possible to connect up to 32 devices to one bus. The analogue inputs serve for connecting a humidity temperature sensor with PT100, and voltage output, and up to three sensors with voltage output 0 … 10 V. The digital inputs support the direct connection of a wind direction transmitter with synchronous-serial output, and two precipitation meters with pulse output.
