Lufft CHM 8K/15K
CEILOMETER
Lufft CHM 8K/15K
The CHM 8K and 15K ceilometers are specialized, highly effective instruments designed for monitoring atmospheric conditions. They operate by emitting pulsed laser beams into the atmosphere using LIDAR technology. This enables them to measure key parameters such as cloud base height, cloud penetration depth, cloud cover, vertical visibility, and aerosol layer height.
It is a highly useful tool for meteorologists as well as for aviation. It comes in two models (CHM 8K and CHM 15K), which measure vertical distances of 8 km and 15 km respectively.
LIDAR Technology
The technology requires laser emission into the atmosphere. Based on the backscattered radiation, the ceilometer determines what is present in the atmosphere.
Visibility
The Lufft CHM 8K/15K ceilometers have the ability to calculate the quality of vertical visibility and how it changes with altitude.
Cloud base height
The CHM 8K and 15K have the ability to detect the height of the cloud base, a feature that is very useful for aviation.
Atmospheric condition index
Based on measurements from other parameters, the ceilometers calculate an index that reflects the state of the atmosphere.
Minimal Maintenance
Maintenance required for Lufft ceilometers is minimal thanks to their self-cleaning feature that removes rain, snow, and dust.
Build quality
The CHM 8K and 15K are constructed from high-quality materials that ensure long-lasting durability, backed by the trusted guarantee of the German manufacturer Lufft.
Why opt for CHM 8K/15K?
If you need an instrument that accurately captures the overall state of the atmosphere, Lufft ceilometers are the ideal choice for you.
Atmosphere Monitoring
The Lufft CHM 8K & 15K ceilometers are excellent choices for atmosphere monitoring. These professional instruments are designed for specific users and applications where accurate and reliable atmospheric observation is essential.
Aeronautics
Lufft ceilometers are essential tools for aeronautics, providing critical information such as cloud base height, cloud penetration depth, and visibility. Therefore, they are an excellent choice for installation at airports and beyond.
