Ceilometer

CHM Cloud Height Sensor

High-performance LIDAR-based ceilometer — accurate cloud base detection, aerosol profiling and atmospheric boundary layer monitoring.

Overview

CHM Cloud Height Sensor

A high-performance LIDAR-based ceilometer designed for accurate cloud detection and atmospheric profiling. The CHM series detects multiple cloud layers, aerosol backscatter and boundary layer height — delivering aviation-grade performance in a compact, reliable instrument.
Key Benefits
  • Aviation-grade cloud base height detection
  • Detects multiple cloud layers and aerosol backscatter profiles
  • Highly reliable for safety-critical applications
  • Provides boundary layer height for dispersion modelling
