Letter from a customer

Dear Sirs,

Our company is using products of your company for the last 5 years. In addition we are also using «Model 466? AutoMet». As a positive comment, we would like to mention that over this time your meteorological stations demonstrated that they can be operated under various conditions presented at the Karachaganak Field. All required servicing is only timely cleaning them up from dust.

Especially we would like to stress that your station with a wind sensor « Model 034 ?» is very easy and simple in operating it. Software “MicroMet Plus “, version 2.2 is very convenient for our conditions of working, it allows to keep on a long-term basis all meteorological data in our local computer, and also the data can be comprised and presented in a convenient spread sheets format.

Best regards,

Ruslan Mukangaliyev

Note: The letter above is from one of the most rugged regions on this earth. Please see the brief description below.

Much of Kazakhstan still looks the way it did when Genghis Khan and his hordes swept across the Central Asian steppes: vast, desolate and empty. Today's travelers will feel as if they've reached the final outposts of the civilized world: Bleak desert scenery leads to flat, seemingly endless plains, broken occasionally by isolated cities, many of them industrial wastelands dating from the Soviet era.

The plains end abruptly at sharply rising foothills and high mountains along the country's eastern and southeastern fringes, where the best attractions lie. According to Asian legend, somewhere in the Altay Mountains, which straddle Kazakhstan's borders with Russia and China, is Shambhala -- the paradise that will someday reveal itself.

Unique Rain Alarm System Saves Contractor Time and Money
A construction contractor in the Northwest was working on a project in the mountains where a workday was determined by the amount of rainfall. Each day someone was sent to the site to determine if there had been too much rain over night or if it was currently raining. If the weather conditions were favorable, the contractor would contact his construction crew and they would go to the site. Time was lost sending someone to visually check the site so the contractor contacted Met One Instruments for a time and cost saving solution.

Our engineers came up with a system to alert the contractor when the conditions were not suitable for work. The key element was that it had to be easy to use as the day foreman might change each day. An automatic voice system was decided upon. Each morning, the foreman calls the remotely located site via telephone, and connects with the Met One Instruments MicroMet Data Logger at the construction site. The logger, using a voice messaging modem, provides the caller with current rain conditions, conditions over the past 2 hours, and conditions over the past 4, as well as 8 hours. Using this information, the foreman makes his decision to contact the rest of the construction crew. The users of the system have been able to get out to the site earlier each day when conditions are good, and not waste the time of the foreman going up the mountain to check on the muddy condition every morning.

This system makes use of the MicroMet 455A Data Logger, the MX-913 Modem with Voice Response and the Model 370 all metal, tipping bucket rain gauge. Using the MicroMet Plus software on a PC system, the users are also able to call the remote logger and download archived rainfall rate and totals as well as receive the voice message. Additional information on the rainfall alarm system, remote alarm systems, and voice messaging systems can be obtained by contacting the Met One Instruments sales staff.
