1. Introduction
The TempVue™10 represents the next generation of air-temperature measurement sensors,
meeting all relevant World Meteorological Organization (WMO
1
) temperature
recommendations.
Designed with the customer in mind, the TempVue 10 easily interfaces with Campbell Scientific or
third-party data loggers and fits a wide range of passive solar radiation shields. The sensor comes
with a short, attached cable and terminates with an M12 connector, which provides exceptional
convenience, environmental protection, and data integrity for use in a variety of applications.
TempVue 10 can be wired as a 2- or 4-wire PT-100 sensor, allowing full flexibility and
