Weather data can be crucial for safety and efficient maritime navigation. Accurate cloud height measurements can be the difference between a safe journey and dangerous situations, and therefore Eliasson’s ceilometer plays a critical role in the maritime industry.


Ceilometers like the Eliasson CBMEE80 Cloud Ceilometer are primarily used to measure clouds and cloud height. These instruments have found wide application in various sectors, including the maritime industry, where weather data is crucial for safety and efficiency. In maritime operations, where accurate weather data can be the difference between a safe journey and dangerous situations, ceilometers play a critical role.

Eliasson CBMEE80: A good investment in both performance, efficiency, and safe maritime navigation

The Eliasson CBMEE80 Cloud Ceilometer is a crucial tool in the maritime industry, where precise weather monitoring is a necessity. With its advanced technology, it can perform critical tasks such as detecting changes in the atmosphere, which improves the safety and efficiency of marine operations. It is an investment in both safety and performance for any maritime operation that depends on accurate and reliable weather data.

How CBME80 contributes to solving critical tasks in the maritime industry

  • Robust and reliable technology: The ceilometer is built to withstand harsh environmental conditions, which are often the case in the maritime industry, including saltwater, humidity, and severe weather.
  • Compact design: The compact size of the Eliasson CBME80 makes it easy to install onboard ships or offshore platforms, where space can be limited.
  • Long range and accuracy: The ceilometer has a large measurement range and high precision in its measurements, meaning the data can be used to create reliable forecasts and improve safety protocols.
  • Automatic data logging and integration: It can be integrated with other systems to provide real-time data that can be used for automated decision-making systems onboard modern ships and maritime installations.
  • Reduced risk: By using accurate data on cloud cover and weather conditions, the risk of dangerous situations can be minimized, which in turn increases the safety of crew and passengers.

Four advantages of the CBME80 Ceilometer in the maritime industry

The Eliasson CBME80 Cloud Ceilometer is used onboard ships as well as at port facilities and offshore platforms to monitor atmospheric conditions, including cloud formations and cloud cover. This is essential for operations such as:

  1. Navigation support: In the maritime sector, visibility and weather conditions are critical for navigation. The ceilometer provides accurate data on clouds, which can improve visibility and ensure precise navigation decisions.
  2. Weather safety: To maintain the safety of life and valuable cargo onboard, it is crucial to be prepared for changes in weather conditions. The ceilometer provides accurate measurements of cloud height and thickness, which can help assess the risk of bad weather.
  3. Flight operations at sea: On offshore platforms and ships that use helicopters for transport, accurate cloud measurements are necessary for safe landings and takeoffs under various weather conditions.
  4. Climate analysis and research: When used in ports and research ships, the ceilometer helps provide accurate measurements that can be used for long-term studies of climate change and atmospheric conditions over ports and seas.
