The ClimaVUE™50 is an affordable all-in-one meteorological sensor that fulfills your common weather monitoring needs with simplicity, when paired with any of Campbell Scientific's highly flexible and scalable data collection platforms. This sensor uses SDI-12 to report air temperature, relative humidity, vapor pressure, barometric pressure, wind (speed, gust, and direction), solar radiation, precipitation, and lightning strike (count and distance). It does this with no moving parts, while consuming little power. A built-in tilt sensor assures long-term data integrity. This diverse product is great for quick deployment, for remote locations, for large networks, as part of a more complex system, or if you just need something simple.

All sensors are integrated into a single, small form-factor unit, requiring minimal installation effort. With a robust, no-moving-parts design that prevents errors because of wear or fouling, the ClimaVUE™50 is ideal for long-term, remote installations.
Solar radiation is measured by a pyranometer that is integrated into the lip of the rain gage funnel at the top of the ClimaVUE™50. The miniature pyranometer uses a silicon-cell sensor to measure the total incoming (direct and diffuse) solar radiation. Silicon-cell sensors have excellent response time to changing radiation conditions and acceptable sensitivity across the solar spectrum, which make them well-suited for use on the ClimaVUE™50.
精心开发ensur cosine-correcting头es accurate readings regardless of sun angle, while the painstakingly researched optical filter material balances cost and performance to ensure the silicon-cell provides the ClimaVUE™50 with good accuracy regardless of temperature or sensor age.
雨量量标准下方的空间是Climavue™50测量风速的地方。超声波信号从换能器以直角发出,彼此从多孔烧结的玻璃板上弹起,然后返回到对面的传感器。声速度受风的影响,风速是通过测量声音从发射器到接收器传播的时间的差异来计算的。
The ClimaVUE™50 temperature measurement is made in the center of the anemometer area where a small stainless-steel needle containing a tiny temperature sensor (thermistor) extends from the middle of the four sonic transducers in the center of the anemometer.
Unlike most air temperature measurements, the temperature sensor is not covered with louvered plates to protect it from solar heating. Instead, it sits in open air, susceptible to solar heating of the instrument body. However, the ClimaVUE™50 accurately corrects the measured air temperature because solar radiation and the wind speed are known. These two are the main variables that determine the error between measured air temperature and the actual air temperature. An energy balance equation is then used to calculate what the actual temperature should be to an accuracy of ±0.6°C.
For more information, see the“ Climavue™50 - 对辐射传感器的空气温度测量的校正”技术论文.
The relative humidity sensor on the ClimaVUE™50 is located behind the circular Teflon™ screen close to the sonic transducers. The Teflon screen protects the sensor from liquid water and dust while allowing water vapor to freely pass to the sensor. The ClimaVUE™50 measures relative humidity and temperature and computes vapor pressure.
The ClimaVUE™50 contains a 9.31 cm (3.67 in.) diameter rain-collection funnel. A spring in the funnel acts as a filter to keep out large particles while allowing enough flow so water does not back up. Rain collected by the funnel exits the funnel through a precision flared hole that forms the rain into drops of a known size. The falling drops hit and momentarily bridge the gap between two gold pins, creating an electrical pulse.
Climavue™50计算脉冲(滴)并计算水量。随着降雨强度的增加,下降量变小,但是Climavue™50固件包含一种算法,可以自动补偿随着雨水的增加而降低的量。
Note:This non-heated sensor is not suitable for solid precipitation measurements or riming environments.
Climavue™50还配备了倾斜传感器。倾斜传感器数据的主要用途是确保Climavue™50始终保持水平。定期检查X和Y倾斜数据,以确保Climavue™50水平;如果倾斜,请返回站点并再次级别。三个度的水平可能会导致雨水和太阳辐射测量值的错误。尽管该传感器的读数可以在安装过程中用于平整仪器,但使用风速计板底部的小气泡水平要容易得多。
The ClimaVUE™50 includes a V-bolt for mounting to a pipe with a nominal outer diameter of 31.8 to 50.8 mm (1.25 to 2.0 in.). This allows the sensor to mount directly to a tripod mast or CM300-series mounting pole, or to a crossarm using the17387 mounting pipe kit.

An example CR1000X program that uses theR7!SDI-12 command to retrieve data. The program adjusts the barometric pressure measurement to sea level. The adjustment is entered as a constant in the beginning of the program. It assumes the site elevation is 1382 m, and a different value is required for different site elevations.
This program also includes instructions that set wind measurements that are less than 0 to the last valid measurement. These instructions are needed because high winds with rain can temporarily interfere with sonic wind measurements.

在内部到Climavue™50,不断测量降水。每10秒测量一次太阳辐射,风和气温;每60秒测量方向,蒸气压,大气压和相对湿度。比测量间隔更频繁地查询传感器将返回原始值。比测量间隔更频繁地查询会导致重复值,并可能导致数据记录器中的正时问题。
The ClimaVUE™50 is a microclimate sensor, so you should position it to be representative of the climate relevant to the research questions you are asking. FAO56 gives specific guidelines to the positioning and field size of sensors. If you intend to use the sensor for reference ET, follow those guidelines.Refer to the following:http://www.fao.org/docrep/X0490E/X0490E00.htm.
The average current drain for the ClimaVUE™50 during the quiescent state and routine 10 s wind measurement is on the order of 300 µA. Polling with the aR7! command every 60 seconds increases the average current drain to 0.4 mA. Polling with the aR7! command every 10 seconds increases the average current drain to 1 mA.
The ClimaVUE™50 mounting type can be a meteorological stand, pole in cement, or tripod: 31.8 to 50.8 mm, 1.25 to 2.0 in. diameter. The ClimaVUE™50 is fitted with a V-bolt, allowing it to be mounted on top of most posts, poles, tripods, etc. Use a wrench to tighten the bolts, securing the ClimaVUE™50 flat and tight against the top of the stand.
The ClimaVUE™50 collects all the information necessary to correct for absorbed radiation using an energy balance approach.
The SDI-12 bus is capable of having at least 10 sensors connected to it, each with 200 feet of cable. With fewer sensors, longer cable lengths are possible.
We do not have a heated version of the ClimaVUE™50 at this time. The model to correct the air temperature is based on the energy balance and should be good in all situations in which the radiation and wind sensors can collect reliable data; however, unintentional burial in snow and ice may impede the function of both. The ClimaVUE™50 will not be a universally great fit for all climates. If the winter precipitation is critical for your study, other instruments will be necessary.
See the maintenance section of the manual for recommendations.
Not every sensor has different cable termination options. The options available for a particular sensor can be checked by looking in two places in the Ordering information area of the sensor product page:
如果一个传感器提供一个外星人,etm、lc、lq,or –QD version, that option’s availability is reflected in the sensor model number. For example, the 034B is offered as the 034B-ET, 034B-ETM, 034B-LC, 034B-LQ, and 034B-QD.
All of the other cable termination options, if available, are listed on the Ordering information area of the sensor product page under “Cable Termination Options.” For example, the 034B-L Wind Set is offered with the –CWS, –PT, and –PW options, as shown in the Ordering information area of the 034B-L product page.
Note:As newer products are added to our inventory, typically, we will list multiple cable termination options under a single sensor model rather than creating multiple model numbers. For example, the HC2S3-L has a –C cable termination option for connecting it to a CS110 instead of offering an HC2S3-LC model.
Climavue™50确实需要连续供电,以使常规的风测量值(每10秒)组合起来,以提供风速和方向。如果您只能加强电源并快速获得测量,那么考虑到风的固有可变性质,这些风速和方向测量值将几乎没有价值。Campbell Scientific强烈建议您不断为Climavue™50仪器提供动力,以进行可靠的风测量。在静止状态和常规10 S风测量期间,Climavue™50的平均电流流量为300微型,因此连续功率的电池电量应最小。
