BroodMinder-WS Wetterstation
Die BroodMinder-WS Wetterstation erfasst das lokale Wetter direkt an Ihrem Bienenstand, indem sie zwei wichtige Parameter misst: Umgebungstemperatur und Luftfeuchtigkeit.
Zusammen mit dem BroodMinder-T zur Überwachung im Bienenstock und der BroodMinder-W Stockwaage hilft BroodMinder-WS dabei, ein umfassendes Bild der Dynamik Ihres Bienenstands zu erhalten und Ihr Monitoring insgesamt zu verbessern.
Die erfassten Daten zu Temperatur und Luftfeuchtigkeit ermöglichen es der BroodMinder-Software, den Brutstatus im Bienenstock genauer zu berechnen sowie den Nektarfluss-Index präziser zu bestimmen.
So unterstützt BroodMinder-WS sowohl Hobbyimker als auch professionelle Imker dabei, ihre Imkerei effizienter zu gestalten und ihre Ressourcen optimal zu nutzen.
Included
- 1 Weather shield with plastic strips and screws for fixation.
- 1 Broodminder-TH internal hive monitor
- 1 CR2032 lithium battery
- Free Web and mobile app access
- Quick start paper guide and extensive online documentation
Features
BroodMinder-WS combines a weather shield with a BroodMinder-TH. It will measure ambient conditions letting you know whether you reach too high or too low local temperatures in your apiary. Sometimes this can provide important insights e.g. inform about the hive requirements over food stores.
In MyBroodminder app local measurements are displayed side by side with those issued from the Weathersource service, allowing it to benchmark and assess its 10-day forecast.
Measuring local weather conditions also allows to compute the local nectar-index® KPI, assessing whether local ambient conditions are suitable for nectar-flow occurrence.
The brood and fitness algorithms are also taking advantage of this more accurate measurement to compute hive daily metrics.
Works with the extensive BroodMinder wireless ecosystem.
If you own a Cell hub or a Wifi hub, you can inspect the data in real time: this option requires a premium subscription.
The data can be accessed both on mobile in BroodMinder Bees app (Android, iOs) and on the web MyBroodMinder.com.

Installation
Install the Broodminder-WS in an open space allowing the air to flow. A pod is the ideal mounting configuration but it can also go fixed to the wall or on top of a hive roof.
Avoid very direct sunlight and do not place it on the ground or over high heat-capacity structures (like concrete or brick) since they will sink or heat the sensor.
If it is the first time you install a BroodMinder device, follow the next generic steps:
- install BroodMinder Bees app, create your account
- make your first manual sync
- install the device under your beehive
- view and explore the data on mobile BroodMinder Bees app and on the web Mybroodminder.com.
To learn more read our User guide and watch the installation Video guide.
