Sun screens and solar Radiation shields for weather stations should be rotated between their testing locations to eliminate most side influences on measurement from the comparison.

QUESTION: How to properly mount an Ecowitt Temp & Humidity Sensor inside the MeteoShield Pro?

ANSWER: Due to its short length, the Ecowitt Temp & Humidity Sensor requires the M25 sensor clamp which comes with the MeteoShield Pro mount to be situated on the top of the mount with an additional 5 mm thick spacer to position the sensor at the proper height in the MeteoShield Pro.

The following photos will server as a guide.
