ClimaVue™ 50 G2 - Weather Sensor

Product catalog summary
Overview
The ClimaVue™50 G2 is an advanced all-in-one meteorological sensor by Campbell Scientific, designed for compactness and durability. It integrates multiple weather measurement capabilities into a single unit, featuring improved precipitation measurement, a redesigned wind sensor, and enhanced UV resistance. The sensor uses an eight-pin M12 connector for easy integration with the Aspen™10 Edge Device.
Product Features
  • Measures common meteorological parameters with a single digital (SDI-12) output.
  • Enhanced wind speed measurement capability up to 60 m/s.
  • Dual precipitation sensors for increased accuracy and reliability.
  • Low power consumption of approximately 1 mA at 12 Vdc.
  • Integrated leveling base and tilt sensor for easy maintenance.
  • Compact design for quick installation and compatibility with Campbell Scientific data loggers.
Sensors and Measurements
  • Pyranometer: Measures solar radiation using a silicon-cell sensor with a cosine-correcting head for accuracy.
  • Anemometer: Utilizes ultrasonic signals to measure wind speed, with enhancements for moisture resistance and increased range.
  • Temperature Sensor: Measures air temperature with a thermistor, correcting for solar heating using an energy balance equation.
  • Relative Humidity Sensor: Protected by a Teflon screen, measures humidity and computes vapor pressure.
  • Rain Gauge: Features dual-sensing technologies with a drop counter and tipping spoon for high-resolution precipitation measurement.
  • Tilt Sensor: Ensures the sensor remains level, critical for accurate rain and solar radiation measurements.
Mounting and Installation
The sensor includes a V-bolt for mounting on pipes with diameters from 31.8 to 50.8 mm. It features an integrated accelerometer, leveling base, and bubble level for straightforward installation.
Standards and Compliance
  • Conforms to various EU directives including RoHS and EMC.
  • Operating temperature ranges from -50° to +60°C, with specific ranges for different components.
Specifications
  • Diameter: 10 cm; Height: 28 cm; Weight: 850 g.
  • Power consumption: Quiescent 0.3 mA, Maximum peak current 33 mA.
  • Measurement ranges include air temperature (-50° to +60°C), relative humidity (0 to 100%), and wind speed (0 to 60 m/s).
  • Accuracy varies by parameter, with typical values provided for each.
