Enhanced Sensor Protection and Accuracy

Standard Radiation Shield

The passive Radiation Shield ensures that temperature sensors are protected from direct solar radiation and other heat sources, providing accurate air temperature readings essential for marine weather monitoring.

  • Accurate Temperature Readings: Prevents heat distortion from direct sunlight or nearby heat sources like engine compartments.
  • Optimal Airflow: Multi-plate construction facilitates maximum airflow, ensuring sensor accuracy.
  • Versatile Mounting: Can be mounted on metal pipes or wood surfaces, suitable for various marine setups.
  • Compatible with Multiple Stations: Use with Wireless Temperature Station or Leaf & Soil Moisture/Temperature Station and all temperature sensors for precise air temperature measurements.

UV Sensor

The Davis Instruments UV Index Sensor measures the sunburning portion of the UV spectrum, providing vital information for sun protection and UV exposure management while on the water.

  • Comprehensive UV Measurement: Reports UV index, dose rate, and daily accumulated UV doses.
  • Precise Diffuser Design: Ensures excellent cosine response for accurate measurements.
  • Stable Performance: Resistant to heat and humidity, maintaining accuracy in marine climates.
  • Durable Housing: Two-piece design minimizes radiation heating and prevents water or dust ingress.

Solar Radiation Sensor

  • Evapotranspiration and THSW Index: Measures solar radiation to calculate evapotranspiration and temperature/humidity/sun/wind indexes.
  • Accurate Cosine Response: Carefully designed diffuser element and housing ensure precise solar radiation measurements.
  • High-Quality Photo Diode: Silicon photo diode is calibrated to match the solar spectrum accurately.

Mounting hardware included; mounting pole sold separately.
