OUTDOOR USE
The solar radiation shield is recommended for temperature and relative humidity measurement accuracy in locations exposed to direct or reflected solar radiation.
Mounts on tripods, masts, or flat vertical surfaces. The RS1 is ideal for use with loggers such as the HOBO MX2300, HOBO Pendant and U-Series data loggers. The following loggers require mounting brackets for use with the RS1:
- HOBO MX2301 or MX2305 loggers require the MX2300-RS-BRACKET
- HOBO U22 or U23-001 loggers require the U23 Clamp Kit
With the addition of a MX2300-RS-BRACKET for mounting the logger inside the solar radiation shield, you have a fully encapsulated Temp/RH Data logging system, ideal for small farming applications or microclimate monitoring.
