Outdoor Temperature Sensor Sun Shield

The srs100lx radiation shield fits most temperature and humidity sensors sold by ambient weather.

Outdoor temperature sensor sun shield. This shield is not a sun shield because when hit by the sun it will heat up and through heat radiation will affect the temperature probe. The thermometers help owners decide if what to wear before leaving the house. However exposure to direct sunlight can sometimes skew accurate temperature readings. The ultimeter solar shield for temperature sensor allows the outdoor temperature sensor to be mounted in direct sunlight avoiding high temperature inaccuracies by shielding the sensor from the rays of the sun.

This shield will offer limited protection from the sun s heat. Solar radiation shield for use with 592txr 06002rm 606tx 06009rm 609txc 06045m sensors sold separately enhances the accuracy of daytime temperature readings by providing shade and allowing airflow durable all weather construction perfect for indoor or outdoor use. The radiation shield provides shade and allows airflow for compatible sensors when sensor placement is limited to being in direct sunlight. Install your outdoor temperature sensor included with weather station inside the solar shield assembly.

The direct effect of the sun is the infrared energy received directly from the sun. The sensor weather shield is designed to protect your outdoor sensors from rain and snow. Multiple plate tier design shell that covers over your outdoor sensor with built in probe wire hole in base stand. The srs100lx is designed with a highly reflective white surface to reflect the sun s direct radiation.

The osa sensor should be mounted between four feet above the ground and one foot minimum below the eave. Protect your outdoor sensors from rain and snow with our durable weather shield. To accurately measure the outdoor air temperature an outdoor temperature sensor must be insulated from the direct and indirect effects of the sun and allow sufficient airflow directly to the temperature sensor. Use with almost all la crosse technology s temperature and or humidity sensors sold separately and mountable onto wall post or flat surface.

The multi plate design allows for maximum airflow. Temperature sensor sun shield. Click on the specs tab below for the full list of compatible sensors. Sensor shield only sensor is not included.

Outdoor thermometers are informational and fun for the weather buffs in all of us. The acurite temperature sensor temperature humidity sensor or lightning detector with temperature and humidity easily clip inside the shield. A small wood shield to house your outdoor thermometer can be built using only a piece of plywood and a few finishing nails. However the sensors in outdoor thermometers are sensitive to sunlight and have inaccurate readings when in contact with sunlight directly.
