above the sensor from where water may drop on to the rain and wind sensor after it
has stopped raining or snowing.
At least 60 cm of clearance must be left all round the device. This facilitates correct
wind speed measurement without eddies. The distance concurrently prevents spray
(raindrops hitting the device) or snow (snow penetration) from impairing the measure-
ment. It also does not allow birds to bite it.
2.2. Mounting the sensor
2.2.1. Attaching the mount
The sensor comes with a combination wall/pole mount. The mount comes adhered by
adhesive strips to the rear side of the housing. Fasten the mount vertically onto the wall
or pole.
