AcuRite Temperature and Humidity Solar Radiation Shield

I bought this Acurite Radiation Shield/Cage for a different brand of thermo-hygrometer to the one it is designed for, as I knew that the generous dimensions of the internal void would accommodate my sensor. I was impressed by the quality of the this Shield which is quite a sturdy unit. The Acurite Shield, which arrives fully assembled, is actually constructed from a set of moulded white plastic louvre sections of tapering sizes with plastic latches that enable each section to click firmly into the next. These louvre units can easily be dis-assembled, if necessary, to assist in any modifications, which I needed to do in order to drill some fixing holes for my own cross piece that I screwed onto the internal top plate from which to hang my thermo-hygrometer sensor. The design protects your sensor from rain and also minimises erroneous readings due to direct sunlight but allows the air to flow through. I can recommend this unit.

Good looking like most of outdoor remote temperature sensors will fit. It is a lot cheaper than its comptitor selling similar seller similar on Amazon. I took a gamble and I think made the best choice. Good recommended seller

My Youshiko outside sensor was incompatible with this shield's fittings. Easily fixed with cable ties and works well. The readings seem more accurate as the sensor is now away from the wall giving readings of -4Cwhich is the true reading. Cheaper than other sheilds

This is a very well-made product and is ideal for sheltering an outdoor temperature/relative humidity sensor for a weather station. The only issue encountered was that my sensor was slightly too large to be retained by the plastic insert near the top of the unit, and there is no internal base provided. As a result, I had to fabricate additional plastic inserts to secure the sensor. With an internal base, this would merit a five-star review.

Smaller than expected but adequate for temperature sensor. Fixing for the sensor is a bit hit and miss, as "gripped" by thin plastic clips.

Hangs outside, in all weathers, but keeps the thermometer dry

I am using these housings with SensorPush HTxw sensors in polytunnels. The height of the housing can be adjusted by adding and removing extra levels. My readings seem to be accurate for temperature, humidity and VPD, and they shelter sensors from direct sun and from rain. Very happy with the design

The shield protects the temperature sensors very well . My sensors have survived all sorts of foul weather without being affected However the shields are a NIGHTMARE to clean. The grime gets into and under all the parts and no amount of hot water and scrubbing will get them completely clean.

Keeps weather and most importantly direct sunlight off sensor. I get accurate readings. Mine is hung under a tree. In late afternoon sunlight hits the sensor, this minimizes any high readings.

百葉箱が欲しくて探していたが、どれもこれも高いし大きい これ見つけて感動した。

Muy interesante para los sensores de temperatura

El paquete llego en excelentes condiciones además de que llego en el tiempo estimado

Perfetti e funzionali
