The Walker 5000 Integrated Marine Weather System is a professional-grade meteorological monitoring solution manufactured by Lilley & Gillie (Walker Marine Technology) in the United Kingdom. Built for commercial merchant vessels, offshore platforms, research ships, and workboats, the Walker 5000 consolidates critical atmospheric and oceanographic readings into a centralized bridge display.

The system processes data from anemometers, barometric pressure sensors, temperature probes, and humidity sensors, providing real-time meteorological monitoring for bridge officers. Featuring robust NMEA 0183 serial output capability, the Walker 5000 feeds weather parameters directly into VDR loggers, ECDIS, RADAR, and shipboard management systems to aid in route planning, cargo care, and heavy-weather navigation.

Key Features:
• Integrated Meteorological Monitoring: Displays wind speed, wind direction, barometric pressure, air temperature, and relative humidity.
• Multi-Sensor Input Capability: Interfaces with ultrasonic or mechanical wind sensors, barometers, and temperature/humidity sensor units.
• NMEA 0183 Serial Interface: Transmits standard IEC 61162-1 data sentences directly to bridge navigation systems and electronic logbooks.
• Customizable Alarm Limits: Configurable audible and visual warnings for high wind speeds, sudden pressure drops, and extreme weather events.
• Clear Bridge Display: High-visibility multi-line digital screen with variable night-vision dimming for low-light wheelhouse operation.
• Heavy-Duty Marine Design: Engineered to endure continuous maritime vibration, electromagnetic interference, and severe weather conditions.
