Furuno PB 100 Ultrasonic Weather Station Sensor for RD-30

PB 100

Updated vessel weather information is an essential part of the boating experience. Furuno has joined forces with Airmar to bring you the Ultimate Weather Station. With our Ultimate Weather Station, you have your own personal weatherman on-board the boat 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!

The PB100 has no moving parts to ensure reliable operation. Information from the PB100 is output as NMEA0183 data and can be sent to a number of devices, such as a PC, Chart Plotter or RD30 NMEA Data Repeater. An optional NMEA data combiner is available to mix data from multiple sources and send combined data to multiple devices.

By combining Furunos popular RD30 Nav Data Repeater with the PB100 Weather Station, you can now display important weather information in a large, easy-to-read format. As an added bonus, the PB100 has been fitted with an internal compass as well as a state-of-the-art Furuno GPS sensor, allowing you to utilize the PB100 as a backup GPS navigator.
