Introducing the CHM8k: LIDAR-based Cloud Height Sensor / Ceilometer

Using the LIDAR technique, the CHM8k detects backscatter aerosol profiles / structure in multiple layers, cloud bases, cloud penetration depths as well as vertical visibility and issues the sky condition index. It has an operating range of up to 8,000m (26,200 ft) and is equipped with an integrated controller offering a fully embedded real-time calculation of all target parameters and an easy-to-use interface.

The Lufft ceilometer series, including the CHM8k and the CHM15k, was designed to work throughout the year and in any climate. Due to their double case structure combined with a window blower and an automatic heating system, the ceilometers are free of fogging, precipitation, freezing or overheating issues.
