COMETEO Professional Thermometer Screen for Weather Station Sensor
The Comet F8001 is a professional radiation shield designed to protect a weather sensor (temperature or combination temperature/humidity) with a diameter of 13 to 18mm. The multi-plate radiation shield is used to protect weather monitoring systems, providing the most accurate climate measurement results. The uniquely designed screen minimizes solar radiation reaching the sensor, minimizes radiation absorbed by the screen, and maximizes ambient air flow around the weather station sensor.
The shields surface that is exposed to sunlight is made of highly UV-reflective and long-term stable ASA plastic. The inner surfaces of the screen are made of Matte black plastic to minimize internal reflections. The large 210mm diameter is designed to provide full protection of the weather sensor. Each of the fourteen black louvres is equipped with a circular slot allowing air to flow vertically through the entire radiation shield. The slot also separates the sunlit part of the louvre from the inner part preventing heat transfer to the sensor.
