OCATION

IPS

✦

The Radiation Shield works best when in a location with a steady breeze. Mount

away from fences, buildings, trees, or other obstructions.

✦

Install over plants or soil if possible.

✦

Do not install over or near sprinklers. The Radiation Shield is not designed to pro-

tect the sensor from water sprayed upwards.

✦

If attaching to a building, the preferred location would be on the north side in the

Northern Hemisphere and on the south side in the Southern Hemisphere.

NSTALLATION

PTIONS

The Radiation Shield may be mounted in four basic orientations: on the side of

a wooden post or a wall, on a metal pipe with outside diameter between 1” and

1 1/4” (25 mm and 31 mm), on top of a wood post, or onto Davis’ Sensor

Mounting Arm. Each of these conﬁgurations is pictured below. You should

determine ahead of time which orientation best suits your purpose because the

installation instructions differ slightly depending on how you plan to mount

the Radiation Shield.

ENSOR

The Radiation Shield can house the External Temperature Sensor, Stainless

Steel Temperature Probe, or External Temperature/Humidity Sensor.

Attaching the External Temperature Sensor or the Stainless Steel

Temperature Probe to the Radiation Shield

In order to attach the External Temperature Sensor or the Stainless Steel Tem-

perature Probe to the Radiation Shield, you will need a closed plate, both clip

mounts, the cable clamp, three #4 x 1/2” pan head self-threading screws, three

#4 ﬂat washers, and the temperature sensor/probe.

Note:

The following illustrations show the installation process for the External Temperature Sensor. The

directions may be used for the Stainless Steel Temperature Probe, as well.

1. Place the sensor cable into the notch on one of the clip mounts and hold it in place.

Make sure to hold the clip mount so the raised semi-circle at the top of the

notch faces up.

2. Position the second clip mount over the ﬁrst, with the notch facing in the opposite

direction, securing the sensor cable between the two notches.

When positioning the second clip mount, make sure the raised semi-circle

faces down.

3. Position the clip mounts over two of the mounting posts on the closed plate.

Make sure you orient the clip mounts as show in the ﬁgure below.

4. Attach the clip mounts to the mounting posts using two of the #4 x 1/2” pan head

self-threading screws and two of the #4 ﬂat washers.

5. Once secured, adjust the position of the sensor so the sensor and approximately 1/4”

(6 mm) of cable protrude from the clip mounts.

6. Place the cable clamp around the sensor cable approximately 8” (20 cm) from the

sensor.

7. Secure the cable clamp to one of the remaining mounting posts (using a #4 x 1/2” pan

head self-threading screw and a #4 ﬂat washer) so that a loop of cable is formed.

Make sure to mount the clamp with the ﬂat side up and the bulge side

down. Tighten the screw completely so that the cable cannot move within

the cable clamp. If using the Stainless Steel Temperature Probe, wrap a cable

tie around the sensor and cable as shown below to hold the probe in place.

Attaching the Temperature/Humidity Sensor to the Radiation Shield

In order to attach the External Temperature/Humidity Sensor (T/H Sensor) to

the Radiation Shield, you will need a closed plate, four #4 x 1/2” pan head

self-threading screws, one # 4 ﬂat washer, and the T/H Sensor.

1. Position the T/H Sensor over the four mounting posts on the closed plate, lining up the

holes in the mounting posts with the holes in the T/H Sensor’s casing.

Make sure you orient the T/H Sensor as shown in the ﬁgure below (with the

long side of the sensor parallel to the long side of the plate).

2. Using three #4 x 1/2” pan head self-threading screws, attach THREE CORNERS of the

T/H Sensor to the closed plate.

Do not attach the ﬁnal corner yet.

3. Place the cable clamp around the sensor cable approximately 4” (10 cm) from the T/H

Sensor.

4. Attach the cable clamp to the remaining corner of the T/H Sensor and to the closed

plate (using a #4 x 1/2” pan head self-threading screw and a #4 ﬂat washer) so that a

loop of cable is formed.

Make sure to mount the clamp with the ﬂat side up and the bulge side

down. Tighten the screw completely so that the cable cannot move within

Attaching the Support Plate to the Cover Plate

To attach the support plate, you will need the cover plate, the support plate,

three #8 x 2 3/4” pan head screws, three 1” spacers, three #8 ﬂat washers, three

#8 split lock washers, and three #8 hex nuts.

1. Slide the three #8 x 2 3/4” pan head screws up through the non-threaded holes in the

shield support plate.

Make sure the side of the support plate marked “UP” is in fact on top as you

slide the screws in from the bottom.

2. Place the cover plate over the screw ends protruding from the support plate.

3. Place a 1” spacer over each of the screw ends.

4. Secure the support plate and spacers to the cover plate using a #8 ﬂat washer, #8

split lock washer, and #8 hex nut on each of the screw ends.

Tighten until the support plate is ﬁrmly attached to the cover plate.

Assembling the Plates and Studs

To assemble the plates and studs you will need the cover plate assembly as

well as the ﬂat plate and closed plate with sensor, three #8 x 5” threaded studs

with attached #8 push nuts, three #8 ﬂat washers, three #8 split lock washers,

and three plastic retainers.

1. Slide each of the three #8 x 5” (127 mm) threaded studs, with push nuts installed,

through each of the three holes in the closed plate, ﬂat plate, support plate and cover

plate.

When inserting the threaded studs make sure that the short end (when mea-

sured from the push nut) goes through the plates. Screw the short end of the

threaded stud in until the cupped side of the push nut bottoms inside the

recess of the closed sensor plate. Tighten as much as you can by hand.

The following instructions explain how to assemble the Radiation Shield for

installation on the side of a post, on a pipe, or on Davis’ Sensor Mounting Arm.

Please note, however, that if you plan to mount the Radiation Shield on top of a

post, you should follow the instructions in “Assembling the Radiation Shield

to Attach to the Top of a Post” on page 9.

1. Slide the three open plates and the two remaining closed plates over the threaded

stud ends protruding from the top of the plate and studs assembly.

SHIELD TO ATTACH TO THE

TOP OF APOST

The instructions for assembling the Radiation Shield differ slightly if you plan

to mount the Radiation Shield on top of a wooden post. Follow the instructions

below if (and only if) you plan to ultimately mount the Radiation Shield on top

of a wooden post.

Attaching Mounting Bracket

To attach the mounting bracket you will need a closed plate, the mounting

bracket, three 1/2” spacers, three #8 x 2 3/4” pan head screws, six #8 ﬂat wash-

ers, three #8 split lock washers, and three #8 hex nuts. You will also need a drill

with a 3/16” (4.7 mm) drill bit.

Note: You will need to supply three #8 x 1” screws if you plan to mount the Radiation Shield over the top of

the post (not preferred), instead of suspending it over the side edge.

MOUNTING ON TOP OF APOST

1. Using the power drill with 3/16” (4.7 mm) drill bit, drill three holes through one of the

closed plates in the locations marked by the small dimples on the bottom of the plate.

Do not use the closed plate to which you attached the sensor.

2. Place a #8 ﬂat washer over the end of each of the #8 x 2 3/4” pan head screws.

As long as the extra length of screw end protruding from the bottom of the

Radiation Shield doesn’t create clearance problems when mounting the

Radiation Shield, you can use the 8 x 2 3/4” pan head screws. If a clearance

problem exists, you will need to use #8 x 1” screws instead (not included).

3. Slide the three #8 x 2 3/4” pan head screws (with washers) up through the holes you

just drilled.

4. At this point, you may want to place a small piece of tape over each of the screw heads

to keep the screws in place as you continue.

5. Place a 1/2” spacer over each of the screw ends protruding from the closed plate.

6. Slide the mounting bracket over the screw ends protruding from the closed plate.

7. Secure the mounting bracket to the closed plate using a #8 ﬂat washer, a #8 split

lock washer, and a #8 hex nut on each of the screw ends.

Tighten until the mounting bracket is ﬁrmly attached to the closed plate.
