Benefits of MeteoShield Professional in long-term sensor cleanliness.
MeteoShield Professional
Keep your sensors clean and accurate
- Benefits of long-term sensor cleanliness
- Benefits of increased long-term sensor accuracy due to increased cleanliness
- Benefits of resistance to the influence of sun shine on temperature measurement
- Eliminates influence of snow and sun reflections from snow on air temperature
Ideal for dirty environment in road-side installations
- Ideal for dirty & wet environments where car spray, sand and dust impact roadside sensors.
- Maintains temperature sensor accuracy even in extremely dirty environments.
- It is not affected by long-term shield dirt buildup and does not require regular cleaning to simplify your service.
See black helical radiation shield test. - MeteoShield -Professional's high protection rating extends sensor life of temperature and humidity sensors.
See winter road radiation shield comparison. - Protect your sensors and extend your service intervals and reduce maintenance.
- Constructed of stainless steel and UV stable pure Titanium white plastic for long service life.

- Versatile interfaces: RS-485 MODBUS ASCII & RTU
(Analog output coming soon: wind speed frequency, wind direction 0...2.5 V) - Intrinsically safe sensor: Low voltage 5-25 V operation and low power 4.5 mA with inrush protection.
Cost effective
- Increase your humidity sensor service intervals over traditional multi-plate radiation shields and fan-ventilated solar shields with the MeteoShield Professional.
- Cost-sensitive applications may use MeteoShield Standard.
- Reduce your system costs with a combination of MeteoWind anemometer and wind vane, MeteoTemp RH+T and MeteoShield.
- Increase your winter road weather station reliability with heated MeteoWind 2.
Meet all industrial standards
- Be intrinsically safe with build in safety features and very low-power consumption and low-voltage operation down to 5 V.
- Easy connectivity with universal industry standard MODBUS RTU & ASCII interface.
- Build a complete solution with the low-power RS-485 wireless meteorological data logger EasyLogGSM.
