Description
Globe Temperature Sensor GT is used to estimate the heat stress on the human body. The globe temperature, in conjunction with separate humidity and ambient air temperature measurements, can used to calculate the wet-bulb globe temperature (WBGT).
GT is a full-size, 6″ diameter globe intended for permanent installations. The sensor conveniently uses standard structural or plumbing pipe fittings.
Available either with Modbus output, the sensor is compatible with a wide range of instruments, including Dyacon weather stations.
Feature Summary
- 6″ copper globe
- Modbus RTU (RS-485)
- Mounts to 1″ pipe
- Durable polyester coating for permanent installation
Key Features
Construction
6 inch (0.15 m) copper globe with polyester coating for long life in outdoor environments.
Data Connection
Power and data are provided through a 4-wire connection. GT uses an RS-485 (Modbus slave) data connection. Drawing a 3 mA average, GT is suitable for solar powered instrumentation systems.
Mounting
GT mounts directly to 1″ pipe using NPT threads or attach a stub to be used with standard 1″ structural pipe fittings.
