WEATHER BALLOON
Hwoyee now have three different types of weather balloons (HY series, RMH series and NSL series); for HY and RMH series, the main difference is on neck diameter which can meet needs of different customers (our RMH balloon’s neck diameter is 3cm). Hwoyee weather balloon includes pilot balloon, ceiling balloon and sounding balloon with sizes from 10g to 6000g. For detailed product information, please see our specification list as below:

Global Climate Observing System (GCOS): In 2005, we started to research and develop 1600g weather balloon specialized for Global Climate Observing System (GCOS). Through several years' efforts, we've made great achievements on this project. Until now, according to results received from GCOS stations (our 1600g sounding balloon have been used in 7 GCOS stations and 1 non-GCOS station in China), the percentage of 1600g balloon with average bursting altitude reaching to 38000m accounts for 50%, 36000m is above 95%.

NSL series balloons
Our NSL series balloons were developed for customers of higher needs for flying heights. The highest height of NSL series balloons can reach is up to 48~50km. See below for sizes we have for NSL series balloons:

Notes: This new series of balloon (below called NSL BALLOON) was developed for sounding requirements above 30km and 40km, which greatly simplified gas-filling operation before launching, it is combined by major balloon and auxiliary balloon, as well as specialized gas-filling adapters. Now, we mainly have below four sizes of NSL balloons:
NSL-30 sets: sounding height above 30km (include major balloon, auxiliary balloon and adapters)
NSL-35 sets: sounding height above 30km (include major balloon, auxiliary balloon and adapters)
NSL-40 sets: sounding height above 40km (include major balloon, auxiliary balloon and adapters)
NSL-45 sets: sounding height above 45km (include major balloon, auxiliary balloon and adapters)
Advantages of this new type balloon:
1. Average bursting height is much higher than any other balloons and with good stability. Under any weather conditions, its effective rate is over 90% (Adverse weather condition is of light influence to performance of balloon);
2. No need to reconstruct the gas-filling house, even if large balloon can be filled in normal size gas-filling house;
3. Equipped with specially designed- adapters, it simplified operation process;
4. With stable bursting height and average bursting height greatly increased;
5. Equipped with gas-filling device ensured uniformed gas-filling volume;
6. Around the world, Hwoyee new type NSL balloon created a new page for high altitude sounding field, which can realize height of 48km, and even to 50km.
