Weather Station
WEA 27
Thank you for purchasing this elegant
weather station. Its accurate mechanism
allows you to monitor air temperature,
relative humidity atmospheric pressure
and to forecast the weather.
CALIBRATION:
The weather station is carefully calibrated
in-factory before delivery. However,
vibrations during delivery may slightly
displace the pointers. Therefore,
calibration before use is recommended to
give the most accurate readings possible.
Reference readings can be obtained from
local weather reports or websites.
Thermometer and Hygrometer: Insert a
flathead screwdriver through the hole at
the back into the small slot. Turn carefully
until it gives the correct reading.
Barometer: Check the current atmospheric
pressure from the local weather report. If
you are near sea-level, the reading from
the weather report should be the same as
the reading shown on the barometer. If
you are higher than sea-level or in a high-
rise building, establish the height above
sea-level of your current location in metres
and divide this figure by 8. Your
barometer’s reading should be the reading
from the weather report minus the
resulting value. If the reading is different,
calibrate by inserting a small flathead
screwdriver through the hole at the back
and into the small screw. Turn carefully
until the correct reading is set.
INSTALLATION:
The weather station is designed for indoor
and outdoor use. Find a location on the
wall where you can clearly read the
readings and ideally away from direct heat
and sunshine. Mount the weather station
on the wall with the screws provided. This
weather station works purely on
mechanical movements and does not
require batteries.
HOW TO USE:
Thermometer:
The thermometer gives temperature
readings in degrees Celsius (°C).
The comfort temperature is around 18-
24°C.
Hygrometer:
The hygrometer gives the relative humidity
readings in percentage (%). This
measures the percentage of moisture
saturation in the air. The comfort relative
humidity is around 50% to 70%. Lower
readings mean that the air is dry and high
readings mean the air is wet and hold
more water.
Barometer:
This barometer measures the change in
air (atmospheric) pressure and shows the
air pressure in hecto-Pascal (hPa). Higher
readings means higher air pressure. The
daily air pressure at sea level can be
checked from local weather reports.
Air pressure depends on the season,
weather and altitude. Good weather gives
higher air pressure and higher altitude has
lower air pressure.
By marking the present air pressure using
the adjustable pointer and then checking
the air pressure 2 hours later you can
predict the weather. A quick rise in air
pressure means the weather will improve
with sunny skies.
A drop in air pressure indicates the
weather will turn cloudy, rain or even
stormy.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE:
Do not subject the weather station to
extreme conditions; shock, extreme
temperatures, scratches….etc.
Check, calibrate and clean the weather
station annually. Use only a damp cloth
and mild detergent to wipe and clean the
weather station. Wipe dry thoroughly
afterwards.
