- Compact size and light weight make this shield useful for many applications.
- Naturally ventilated, requires no power
- Used with ambient temperature sensors
- Useful for a wide range of applications
- Well suited for field studies where power for aspiration is not available
- Easy air passage through shield
- Unique shape of disc provides positive blockage of direct solar radiation, as well as reflected radiation from the temperature sensing element.
- Specially formulated thermoplastic disc material for maximum weatherability, high reflectivity, low thermal conductivity, and low heat retention.
- Accommodates variety of sensors through threaded plastic hex plug (sensors up to 1 in. (26mm) dia.).
