  • Vaisala Helideck Monitoring SystemSafeguard your personnel – your most valuable asset – with reliable weather observations

  • • Cloud height and coverage: Vaisala CL31 advanced single lens optics ceilometer provides excellent performance, even for low altitude cloud.

    • Barometric pressure measurements: Vaisala PTB330 barometer using the dual BAROCAP® sensor with excellent long-term stability.

    • Air temperature, dew point, and relative humidity: Vaisala HMP155 temperature and humidity probe using the HUMICAP®180R sensor with superior long-term stability.

    • Horizontal visibility: Compact and lightweight Vaisala PWD series sensors require little maintenance. Optionally the sensor provides automatic present weather detection.

    Proven Vaisala Sensors

    • Wind speed and direction: Vaisala WMT700 - the accurate and maintenance free ultrasonic wind speed and direction sensor with a robust stainless steel structure.

    Optional Sensors

    • Helideck motion: For floating and mobile installations Vaisala offers high-quality and accurate helideck motion sensors in all sea conditions.

    • Wave height: Radac Wave Guide is a compact and maintenance free wave measurement system. Optionally it measures wave direction.

    • Lightning detection: Vaisala's Global Lightning Dataset GLD360 is the only lightning detection network capable of delivering high-quality data anywhere in the world both offshore and onshore. Depending on location and needs, Vaisala also provides local lightning sensors for on-site lightning detection enabling early warnings and tracking of thunderstorm movement.

    Vaisala Helideck Monitoring System

    The unique Vaisala Helideck Monitoring System (HMS) provides accurate information on the prevailing weather and helideck motion to ensure effective flight planning and safe landings on offshore installations. Measurements are based on Vaisala’s world-class, reliable sensor technology, which is integrated into weather stations designed specifically for offshore weather monitoring. The advanced operator's software includes a real-time data display, reporting tools, and critical alarms to enable the operator to make better informed decisions during critical weather situations. A web interface allows the data to be viewed on any PC in the network. The weather station electronics are available rack-mounted or as an outdoor marine hardened version for installations with limited equipment space and less field cabling.

    As an optional feature, automatic audible weather reports are available for helicopter pilots through a VHF radio transceiver.

    Safeguard your personnel - your most valuable asset – and avoid costly and frustrating flight interruptions by offering your helicopter service provider accurate weather and motion data from Vaisala – the weather provider that the aviation community relies on, worldwide.
