Product Information

COMETEO Universal Radiation Shield

The COMETEO radiation shield F8004 is a device designed to protect up to 4 measuring probes with a diameter of 13 to 18 mm from thermal radiation and climatic influences. The shield is made of UV stabilized ASA and stainless steel, and weighs approximately 2.4 kg (without mounting clamps). The shield can be fixed on a pipe with a diameter of 20 to 50 mm. The temperature operating range is not specified, but the relative humidity operating range is between 0 and 100%RH. The shield should be disposed of according to current legislation.

PRODUCT Dimensions

The dimensions of the shield are not specified in the user manual.

Radiation Shield Location

The radiation shield should be placed at least 1.8 m above the ground. If it is necessary to mount the shield in close proximity to the building, it should be on its north (shaded) side. For professional measurements, a grass place is recommended that has no obstacles within a radius of 10 m (the lawn should be maintained on an ongoing basis). The distance to the nearest building should be more than four times the height of the building.

Radiation Shield Mounting

The package includes two clamps for fixing the shield. Attach the clamps to a pipe with a diameter of 20 to 50 mm (vertical or horizontal) and then attach the shield with the enclosed M8 nuts (see figure). The pipe should not interfere with the space next to the shield.

PRODUCT Measuring Probe Installation

Insert the measuring probes into the glands at the bottom of the shield to the recommended height (see figure) and tighten the nut to secure the probe. Secure the cables with cable ties. Insert blanking plugs in unused glands.
