• Sensor Mounting Arm
A single-location mounting option. The Sensor Mounting Arm includes
provisions for optimal mounting of all Davis sensors: anemometer, tem-
perature sensor (with Radiation Shield), solar radiation sensor, Rain Col-
lector Shelf, etc.
• Sensor Tilting Bracket
Enables you to adjust the position of the solar radiation sensor and the
UV sensor to match the angle of the sun’s rays for maximum readings.
Note: The temperature-humidity-sun-wind index calculation is most accurate when the solar radi-
ation sensor is pointed directly at the sun at solar noon. You may use the Sensor Tilting
Bracket to hold the sensor in this position.
• Radiation Shield
Protects the temperature sensor or temperature/humidity sensor from
solar radiation and other sources of radiated and reflected heat. Increase
the life of the sensor and the accuracy of the readings.
• Rain Collector Shelf
Provides a horizontal surface for mounting the rain collector. May be
used with Sensor Mounting Arm or mounted on other surfaces.
• Shelters
We have a pair of weather-resistant shelters which will enable you to
mount some or all of your system components outside. Optional heaters
enable you to keep components operating even in cold weather.
• Solar Power Kit
Powers the weather station using energy from the sun; no AC power is
required. Requires our 6.5-Amp-Hour Battery or other battery of your
choice.
• Alarm Output Module
Enables you to use weather station alarms to automatically start or stop
external devices such as irrigation systems, heaters, or fans.
• Surge Protectors
For upgraded protection against lightning-induced power surges,
power-cross conditions, and ground potential rises, use Surge Protec-
tors. Use one Surge Protector for every two wires and mount inside one
of our surge-protector shelters.
