MacSync LWS X1 LoRaWAN® Weather Station Datasheet
Product Overview
MacSync LWS X1 is an advanced industrial-grade LoRaWAN® Weather Station designed for real-time environmental and meteorological monitoring across smart agriculture, industrial automation, smart-city infrastructure, renewable-energy plants, and environmental research applications. The station continuously measures wind speed, wind direction, ambient temperature, relative humidity, and barometric pressure to deliver accurate weather intelligence for automation, analytics, and climate-driven operational decisions.
Built for ultra-long-range wireless communication and low-power outdoor deployments, MacSync LWS X1 enables reliable weather data collection even in remote locations where wired infrastructure is unavailable. Its rugged IP65-rated enclosure, UV-resistant housing, and industrial-grade sensing architecture ensure stable operation in harsh outdoor environments including heavy rain, dust, humidity, heat, and extreme climate conditions.
The weather station is ideal for deployment across farms, vineyards, plantations, greenhouses, highways, airports, solar farms, mining sites, industrial plants, smart campuses, reservoirs, flood-monitoring systems, research stations, and smart-city weather monitoring networks.
With support for OTA configuration through the Maya App, onboard data buffering, solar-powered and battery-powered variants, and seamless integration with TTN, ChirpStack, MQTT servers, and private LoRaWAN® networks, MacSync LWS X1 provides scalable, secure, and maintenance-efficient weather monitoring for modern Industrial IoT and environmental monitoring applications.
