For use by fuel distributors, planners, and utilities, the Energy EnviroMonitor
(Energy EM) measures weather conditions which aid in estimating fuel oil con-
sumption, heating and cooling energy requirements at a development site, and
solar and wind energy potentials at a collection site. This integrated weather
station, computer, and data logger measures/calculates, displays, and stores
heating and cooling degree-days, temperature-humidity index cooling degree-
days, wind chill heating degree-days, temperature, temperature-humidity
index, wind chill, wind speed, wind run, wind direction, solar radiation, solar
energy, rainfall, rate of rainfall, barometric pressure, relative humidity, and
dew-point. Current values, high and low values, cumulative totals, and daily
averages are available for display at the push of a button. The system can even
sound an alarm when values exceed a threshold set by the user.
O PTIONAL S ENSORS
The following optional sensors enable the Energy EM to measure and calculate
specialized weather information. All optional sensors are available from your
dealer or may be ordered directly from Davis Instruments.
• Anemometer
Enables you to measure and display wind speed, wind run, wind direc-
tion, wind chill, and wind-chill degree-days (with temperature sensor).
