Sensors for Custom Weather Stations
There is an extremely wide range of sensors available for weather monitoring. These are a few of our most popular sensors for weather stations equipped with a Campbell Scientific datalogger. Please contact us at (435) 755-0774 or info@inmtn.com for more information or ordering.
Temperature & Relative Humidity
EE181-L
The EE181-L, manufactured by E+E Elektronik Corporation, is a rugged, accurate temperature and humidity probe that is ideal for long-term, unattended applications. It includes a proprietary coating on the RH element that increases the life of the element and protects it from dirt, dust, salt, or other contaminants. A 1000 Ω PRT measures air temperature for the -40° to +60°C range. For optimum results, the EE181 should be recalibrated annually. It is compatible with most Campbell Scientific dataloggers.
IMPORTANT: Temperature sensors must be housed in a radiation shield, such as the RAD10E, RAD10 or RAD06.

Wind Speed & Direction
05103 Wind Monitor
The 05103 Wind Monitor is a light-weight, sturdy instrument for measuring wind speed and direction in harsh environments. Its simplicity and corrosion-resistant construction make it ideal for a wide range of wind measuring applications.
Similar Sensors
05108
Heavy Duty Wind Monitor. Rugged enough for harsh environments, resists corrosion from sea-air and atmospheric pollutants.
05108-45
Heavy Duty Wind Monitor Alpine version for harsh environments and ice resistance.
05305
Air Quality version with greater sensitivity than other models.
WINDSONIC4
Sonic anemometer with digital readout. Low maintenance with no moving parts, and capable of detecting wind speed as low as 0.01 m/s.
Barometric Pressure
CS100
The CS100 measures barometric pressure for the range of 600 to 1100 mb. This range equates to from below sea level (as in a mine) up to 12,000 feet above sea level. Designed for use in environmental applications, the CS100 is compatible with all Campbell Scientific dataloggers.
This sensor is designed to be mounted in Campbell Scientific enclosures.
Similar Sensors
CS106
Comparable alternative to the Setra CS100, but manufactured by Vaisala.
Precipitation
TE525WS 8 in. Rain Gage
The TE525WS, manufactured by Texas Electronics, is a tipping-bucket rain gage that conforms to the National Weather Service recommendation for an 8 in. funnel orifice. It measures rainfall in 0.01 in. increments (metric version also available). This tipping bucket is compatible with all Campbell Scientific dataloggers, and it is widely used in environmental monitoring applications.
With a CS705 Snowfall Conversion Adapter, this rain gage can also measure the water content of snow.
A Wind Screen is also available to minimize the affect of wind on rain measurements.
Other models, including the TE525 6 in. rain gage, are also available.
Similar Sensors
TB4
Rain gage for heavy precipitation up to 27.6 in/hr.
CS705
Snowfall Adapter for Rain Gages. (Uses antifreeze to melt snow without electricity.)
52202
Electrically heated rain gage for measuring rain, snow, and other frozen precipitation.
CS725
Powerful all-in-one sensor for measuring snow depth and total water content in an area.
Solar Radiation
CS300 – RETIRED
The CS300, manufactured by Apogee Instruments, measures total sun and sky solar radiation for solar, agricultural, meteorological, and hydrological applications. Its spectral range of 360 to 1120 nanometers encompasses most of the shortwave radiation that reaches Earth’s surface. This pyranometer can be measured by all Campbell Scientific dataloggers.
The CS300 has been replaced by the CS301.
Similar Sensors
