Description
The Tinytag ACS-5050 is a robust, Stevenson-type environmental radiation screen designed to protect data loggers from harsh outdoor conditions. Built with a specialised louvred structure, it shields sensitive instrumentation from direct precipitation and solar radiant heat, preventing localised thermal build-up that causes inaccurate sensor readings. The internal housing is specifically optimised to securely hold up to two Tinytag Plus 2 or Tinytag Talk data loggers simultaneously. By maintaining unrestricted, natural airflow through the chamber, it guarantees highly accurate, unadulterated ambient temperature and humidity data acquisition.
Features
- Dual Logger Capacity: Designed with integrated internal inserts that securely accommodate two Tinytag Plus 2 data loggers.
- Radiant Heat Shielding: Highly effective louvred construction reflects solar radiation and prevents direct sunlight from artificially inflating environmental temperature readings.
- All-Weather Protection: Provides a reliable physical barrier against heavy rainfall, snow, and sleet without restricting natural air circulation.
- Simplified Field Assembly: Built using heavy-duty bolts and wing-nuts for quick, tool-free disassembly when retrieving loggers or servicing units in the field.
- Flexible Mounting Options: Supplied with a versatile mounting bracket and an integrated 42mm U-bolt for immediate deployment onto fence rails, posts, or support rods.
