Radiation Shield 074

The Model 074 from Met One Instruments Powered by Acoem is a naturally aspirated solar radiation shield designed to be used with attached sensors. The sensor is shielded by a series of white concentric plates, which allow air flow to pass through the shield while blocking direct solar rays. This shielding minimizes the effects of solar and terrestrial radiation and improves the measurement accuracy of meteorological sensors.

Based on a common multi-plate design, the 074 Radiation Shield consists of 7 polymer shields. The multiple shields provide for natural air flow aspiration of the probe. The shield is designed for mounting on a vertical pipe or tower leg. The mounting arm can also be mounted on a horizontal pipe by moving the mounting hardware to an alternate position on the mounting arm.  U-bolt to either vertical or horizontal pipe ¾ IPS (1.05” OD) to 1.5 IPS (1.90” OD).

The 074 Radiation Shield is designed for use with the 064 Temperature Sensors or the 083E Temperature/Relative Humidity Sensors.
