SenseCAP Weather Sensor S700-C — Radar Rain & Solar Radiation
S700-C 7–in-1 Compact Weather Sensor with pyranometer measures air temperature, relative humidity, barometric pressure, global solar radiation, sunshine duration, rain intensity (radar), wind speed, and wind direction. It is ideal for application in a rough environment like the outdoors, agriculture, or smart cities.
As a compact agriculture weather station, the S700-C provides localized weather and solar radiation data in multiple agricultural environments.
Use it with SenseCAP LoRaWAN Data Logger or SenseCAP 4G Data Logger.

Comprehensive 7-parameter Measurement
The S700-C is equipped with multiple sensors measuring crucial parameters for gathering a wealth of environmental data, including air temperature, relative humidity, barometric pressure, total solar radiation, sunshine duration, rain intensity (Radar Rainfall), wind speed and wind direction.
Industrial-level Design
Wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C and High Protection Rating of IP66
Versatile Output Interface
The S700-C offers 2 common and reliable output interfaces, namely RS485 (supports MODBUS-RTU protocol) and SDI-12.
Thermostatically-controlled Heating System
This heating system is thermostatically controlled, ensuring that the device can maintain its normal working state and accurate measurement capabilities at extremely cold temperatures.
Powerful Components
- Long Cable for Mounting: A 3-meter cable is provided for pole mounting,
- Accuracy-enhancing Shields: Radiation shields are equipped which minimize the impact of external factors on the sensor’s readings.
- Advanced Wind Sensors: It uses ultrasonic wind speed and direction sensors without movable components. This design with bird-proof structure not only reduces the risk of mechanical wear and tear but also improves the durability and accuracy of wind measurement.
