Normal or International

This sensor measures barometric pressure for monitoring weather changes or it can be used to measure altitude when used in the field. Three versions of the sensors are available which offer the following features:

S1679 is designed for use at normal altitudes.

S1784 is designed for use by mountaineers and high altitude locations (over 1000m).

All models include in-built temperature compensation.
