1. CM106 Tripod

1.1. General

The CM106 is a general purpose tripod that can be used for mounting sensors,
solar panels, antennas, and instrument enclosures. The CM106 is constructed
from galvanized steel, with individually adjustable legs that allow installation
over uneven terrain. Height of the mast is 7 ft (2.1 m), or 10 ft (3 m) with the
mast extension.

The CM106 includes lightning and grounding rods, grounding cables, UV
resistant cable ties, and stakes for securing the tripod feet to the ground. An
optional guy kit is recommended for sites that experience high wind speeds
(see Section 1.2, Allowable Wind Speed Specifications). Instrument enclosures
can be purchased with mounting brackets that attach to either the mast or leg
section as shown in Section 1.5.7.

The CM106 can be used for a variety of applications. For meteorological
stations, sensors are mounted to the tripod using mounting brackets appropriate
for the model of sensor. For non-meteorological applications the tripod can be
used to mount instrument enclosures, solar panels, junction boxes, or antennas.

1.5. Tripod Installation

1.5.1 Tripod Base

WARNING

Tripod installation near power lines is dangerous. The
minimum safe recommended distance from overhead
power lines is 2 times the height of the tripod and mast
combined. Call Blue Stakes to locate buried utilities
prior to installation.

The tripod base has three legs, which are individually adjustable, that allow the
tripod to be installed over non-level terrain.

Prepare the area where the tripod will be installed. The tripod requires an area
approximately 9.3 ft (2.8 m) in diameter. Natural vegetation and the ground
surface should be disturbed as little as possible, but brush and tall weeds should
be removed.

Stand the tripod base up on end, and rotate the feet perpendicular to the legs.
Each leg has a slide collar and T-knob with a spring loaded pin that locks into
holes located on the underside of the leg as shown in Figure 1.5-1.

Holes for Pins

Slide Collar

FIGURE 1.5-1. Tripod Leg, Slide Collar Components

1.5.1.1 Mounting on a Relatively Flat Area

Loosen the T-knob and extend each leg until the pin engages in a hole (depress
the tab to disengage the pin from a hole). With the legs extended, orient the
tripod so that one of the legs points South (assuming the instrument enclosure
with -MM Mast Mount bracket will face North). If the instrument enclosure
has the -LM Leg Mount bracket, orient the tripod so that the enclosure will

mount to one of the three leg mount positions on the tripod, facing the desired
direction. The tripod is typically plumbed after the mast has been installed, as
described in Section 1.5.2.

1.5.1.2 Mounting on an Incline

Loosen the T-knob and extend each leg until the pin engages in a hole (depress
the tab to disengage the pin from a hole). With the legs extended, orient the
tripod so that one leg points downhill and the other two legs point uphill. The
tripod is more stable with only one leg pointed downhill because the mast is
closer to the center of the footprint (see Figure 1.5-2).

The tripod is typically plumbed after the mast has been installed, as described
in Section 1.5.2.

On the end of each guy line is a case and hardware to attach to the turnbuckles.
Unscrew the turnbuckles so that only 1/2 in of thread extends beyond the inside
of the turnbuckle body. Attach the case and turnbuckle to the tripod leg as
shown in Fig 1.5-6. Loosen the Phillips screw, and remove the slack in the guy
line by feeding the load end of the guy wire through the wedge while pulling
up on the dead end. If the load end of the guy wire can’t be fed through the
case, use a small flat screwdriver to push the wedge forward into the case to
disengage wedge.

After the slack has been removed from the guy lines, tighten the Phillips
screws and tighten the turnbuckles to tension the guy lines.

1.5.4 Staking the Tripod Feet

Six stakes are provided for securing the tripod feet to the ground. Drive two
stakes through holes in each foot at an angle as shown in Figure 1.5-7.

Stakes may not be adequate depending on soil structure, maximum wind
speeds experienced at the site, mast height, or wind load from the
instrumentation. For questionable situations, additional stakes (PN 17049) or
even concrete footings for the tripod feet and guy anchors should be
considered.

2.2 UT10 Tower Installation

2.2.1 Base Installation

The UT10 10-ft tower provides a support structure for mounting the
weather station components. Figure 2.2-1 shows a typical UT10 equipped
with instrumentation enclosure, meteorological sensors, and solar panel.

The UT10 tower attaches to a user supplied concrete foundation as shown in
Figure 2.2-2. The tilt base, anchor bolts, and nuts are included with the tower.

1. Dig a hole 24" squ

hole.

2. Construct a concrete form out of 2" x 4" lumber 24" square (inside

dimensions). Center th
along the outside edge of each side. Level the form by driving nails
through the stakes and into the form while holding the form level.

3. Assemble the anchor bolts and tilt base as shown in Figure 2.2-3. There

should be two nuts below the base and one nut above.

4. Fill the hole and form with concrete. Screed the concrete level with the

top of the form. Allow the concrete to setup enough to support the weight
of the base*, then position the base (with the anchor bolts attached) over
the center of the concrete foundation and press the anchor bolts into the
concrete as shown in Figure 2.2-3. The bottom of the threads should be
approximately 1/2" above the concrete. Level the base in both directions
using a small level.

*Rather than relying on the concrete to support the base, two boards 1" to

1.5" thick that span the forms can be positioned under the base while the
concrete hardens.

5. Remove the form after the concrete has sufficiently hardened. Level the

base by adjusting the two lower nuts. Minor adjustments will be required
after the tower is attached.

2.2.2 Tower Installation

1. Install the mast as shown in Figure 2.2-4. Attach the 3/4" x 10" nipple to

the mast using the bell reducer. Loosen the two bolts at the top of the
tower and insert the mast. For a 3 m mounting height, the bell reducer
should rest against the top of the tower. Tighten the two bolts to secure
the mast.

2. Remove the three upper bolts on the aluminum sleeves attached to the

base. Loosen the nuts on the three lower bolts and position the sleeves
vertically (Figure 2.2-2).

3. Stand the tower upright and insert the three legs into the sleeves. Align

the holes and replace the bolts previously removed.

4. Check the tower for plumb using a level and adjust the leveling nuts as

required. When the tower is plumb, use two wrenches to lock the two
lower nuts together. Tighten the upper nuts to secure the base.

5. The lower bolt in the rear leg can be removed to allow the tower to be

hinged to the ground. If a step ladder is available, it is easier to leave the
tower upright.

1. Drive the ground rod close to the tower using a fence post driver or sledge

hammer. Drive the rod at an angle if an impenetrable hardpan layer exists.
In hard clay soils, a gallon milk jug of water can be used to "prime" the
soil and hole to make driving the rod easier.

2. Loosen the bolt that attaches the clamp to the ground rod. Insert one end

of the 4 AWG wire between the rod and the clamp and tighten the bolt
(Figure 2.2-5).

3. Attach the tower grounding clamp to a tower leg (Figure 2.2-5). Route the

4 AWG wire attached to the ground rod up the tower leg to the grounding
clamp. Loosen the set screw and insert the 4 AWG wire and the 24 AWG
enclosure ground wire into the hole behind the screw and tighten the
screw. Route the green wire to where the enclosure will be installed.

2.4 Enclosure Installation

All instrumentation (datalogger, power supply, and communication
peripherals) are mounted in the enclosure. A PVC bulkhead port is installed in
the enclosure for routing the sensor and communication cables to the
instrumentation.

The “-TM” option is used to attach our enclosures to a UT10 tower. An
enclosure ordered with the “-TM” option will be shipped with a three-piece
bracket mounted to the top of the enclosure and an identical three-piece
bracket mounted to the bottom of the enclosure. This mounting bracket option
uses the same three-piece brackets as the "-MM" option, except the pieces are
rearranged so that the flanges are on the side of the bracket instead of in the
middle. The distance between the centers of each flange needs to be 10.25”
(see Figures 2.4-1, 2.4-2, and 2.4-3).

Attach the enclosure to the UT10’s tower legs as follows:

1. Position the enclosure on the north side of the tower.

2. Place the enclosure at the desired height. Please note that the

recommended lead lengths for our sensors assume the bottom of the
enclosure is mounted 3 ft from the ground.

3. Use the furnished 1.5” u-bolts to secure the enclosure to the tower legs.

4. Route the 14 AWG wire from the brass tower grounding clamp to the

enclosure grounding lug. Strip one inch of insulation from each end of the
wire and insert the end of the wire into the grounding lugs and tighten

4. Met One 034B Windset

4.1. General

The 034B Windset is used to measure horizontal wind speed and direction.

Wind speed is measured with a three cup anemometer. Rotation of the cup
wheel opens and closes a reed switch at a rate proportional to wind speed.

Vane position is transmitted by a 10K ohm potentiometer. With a precision
excitation voltage applied, the output voltage is proportional to wind direction.

The accompanying Met One manual contains additional information on the
operating principals, installation, and maintenance of the sensor.

Cable length for the 034B is specified when the sensor is ordered. Table 4.1-1
gives the recommended cable length for mounting the sensor at the top of the
tripod/tower with a CM202 crossarm.

Locate wind sensors away from obstructions (e.g. trees and building). As a
general rule of thumb there should be a horizontal distance of at least ten times
the height of the obstruction between the windset and the obstruction. If it is
necessary to mount the sensors on the roof of a building, the height of the
sensors, above the roof, should be at least 1.5 times the height of the building.
See Section 8 of original 034B manual for a list of references that discuss siting
wind speed and direction sensors.

6. LP02 Pyranometer

6.1. General Description

This manual provides information for interfacing Hukseflux’s LP02
Pyranometer to various models of Campbell Scientific dataloggers.

The LP02 is shipped with an instruction manual provided by Hukseflux that
contains information concerning the LP02’s construction, spectral sensitivity,
cosine response, and a simple sensor check out procedure. Included with the
sensor and manual is a calibration certificate with the sensor calibration
constant and serial number. Cross check this serial number against the serial
number on your LP02 to ensure that the given calibration constant corresponds
to your sensor.

The LP02 pyranometer is designed for continuous outdoor use. Due to its flat
spectral sensitivity from 300 to 3000 nm, it can be used in natural sunlight,
under plant canopies, in green houses or buildings, and inverted to measure
reflected solar radiation. Two LP02s can be used in combination to measure
albedo. The LP02 can also be used to measure most types of artificial light
(Xenon lamps, Halogen lamps, etc.).

The LP02 pyranometer consists of a thermopile sensor, housing, dome, and
cable. The thermopile is coated with a black absorbent coating. The paint
absorbs the radiation and converts it to heat. The resultant temperature
difference is converted to a voltage by the copper-constantan thermopile. The
thermopile is encapsulated in the housing in such a way that it has a field of
view of 180 degrees and the angular characteristics needed to fulfill the cosine
response requirements.

The LP02 is usually installed horizontally, but can also be installed at any
angle including an inverted position. In all cases it will measure the flux that is
incident on the surface that is parallel to the sensor surface.

Site the LP02 to allow easy access for maintenance while ideally avoiding any
obstructions above the plane of the sensing element. It is important to mount
the LP02 such that a shadow will not be cast on it at any time.

If this is not possible, try to choose a site where any obstruction over the
azimuth range between earliest sunrise and latest sunset has an elevation not
exceeding 5°. Diffuse solar radiation is less influenced by obstructions near
the horizon. For instance, an obstruction with an elevation of 5° over the
whole azimuth range of 360° decreases the downward diffuse solar radiation
by only 0.8%.

37

LP02 Pyranometer

The sensor should be mounted with the cable pointing towards the nearest
magnetic pole, e.g., in the Northern Hemisphere point the cable toward the
North Pole.

The CM225 Solar Sensor Mounting Stand is used to attach the LP02 to a
vertical pipe (1.0 – 2.1” OD) as shown in Figure 6.3-1. The LP02 includes a
base with three leveling screws, bubble level, and mounting screws.

Attach the LP02 to the CM225 as follows:

1. Loosely mount the pyranometer and fixture on the mounting arm, with the

leveling screws lightly touching the mounting plate. Do not fully tighten
the two mounting screws.

2. Turn the leveling screws as required to bring the bubble of the spirit level

within the ring. (For easy leveling first use the screw nearest the spirit
level.)

3. Tighten the mounting screws to secure the assembly in its final position.

Check that the pyranometer is still correctly leveled and adjust as
necessary.

7. CMP6-L, CMP11-L, and CMP21-L
Pyranometers

6.1. Introduction

CMP-series pyranometers are designed for continuous outdoor monitoring of
solar radiation intensity. A flat spectral sensitivity from 285 to 2800 nm
enables accurate measurements in natural sunlight, under plant canopies, and
in green houses or buildings. When inverted, these pyranometers can measure
reflected solar radiation. Uses include monitoring global horizontal irradiance
(GHI) and plane of array irradiance (POA). Diffuse sky radiation can also be
measured with the use of a shade mechanism.

CMP-series pyranometers are manufactured by Kipp & Zonen, and cabled by
Campbell Scientific.

Before using these pyranometers, please study:

• Section 2, Cautionary Statements

• Section 3, Initial Inspection

• Section 4, Quick Start

More details are available in the remaining sections.

7.2. Cautionary Statements

• CMP-series pyranometers are rugged, but they should be handled as

precision scientific instruments.

• Care should be taken when opening the shipping package to not damage

or cut the cable jacket. If damage to the cable is suspected, consult with a
Campbell Scientific applications engineer.

7.3. Initial Inspection

Check the contents of the shipment. If there is a shortage (see Section 7.3.1,
Ships With), contact Campbell Scientific. If any damage has occurred during
transport, immediately file a claim with the carrier and contact Campbell
Scientific to facilitate repair or replacement.

The model number and cable length are printed on a label at the connection
end of the cable. Check this information against the shipping documents to
ensure the correct product and cable length are received.

NOTE

7.4.1 Siting

Cross check this serial number against the serial number on your
pyranometer to ensure that the given sensitivity value
corresponds to your sensor.

Appendix A in the CMP-series manual provides the installation
procedure for the CVF3 ventilation unit.

The pyranometer is usually installed horizontally for global horizontal
measurements. However, the pyranometer can be installed at any angle for
POA measurements and in the inverted position for reflected measurements.
In all cases it will measure the solar flux incident on the sensor surface.

Site the pyranometer to allow easy access for maintenance while ideally
avoiding any obstructions above the plane of the sensing element. It is
important to mount the pyranometer such that a shadow will not be cast on it at
any time.

If this is not possible, try to choose a site where any obstruction over the
azimuth range between earliest sunrise and latest sunset has an elevation not
exceeding 5°. Diffuse solar radiation is less influenced by obstructions near
the horizon. For instance, an obstruction with an elevation of 5° over the
whole azimuth range of 360° decreases the downward diffuse solar radiation
by only 0.8%.

7.6.2.2 CMP6 and CMP11 Wiring

NOTE

A CMP6 or CMP11 purchased from Campbell Scientific has
different wiring than a pyranometer purchased directly from
Kipp & Zonen.

The pyranometer is measured using either differential analog channels or
single-ended analog channels.

A differential voltage measurement is recommended because it has better noise
rejection than a single-ended measurement.

Connections to Campbell Scientific dataloggers for a differential measurement
are given in Table 7-2. A user-supplied jumper wire should be connected
between the low side of the differential input and ground (AG or

) to keep

the signal in common mode range.

Connections to Campbell Scientific dataloggers for a single-ended
measurement are given in Table 7-3.

7.6.2.3 CMP21 Wiring

NOTE

A CMP21 purchased from Campbell Scientific has different
wiring than a CMP21 purchased directly from Kipp & Zonen.

The CMP21’s pyranometer can be measured using either differential analog
channels or single-ended analog channels. A differential voltage measurement
is recommended because it has better noise rejection than a single-ended
measurement. If a differential channel is not available, a single-ended
measurement can be used.

A single-ended channel and a voltage excitation channel are used to measure
the CMP21’s internal thermistor.

Connections to Campbell Scientific dataloggers for a differential measurement
are given in Table 7-4. A user-supplied jumper wire should be connected
between the low side of the differential input and ground (AG or

) to keep
the signal in common mode range. Connections to Campbell Scientific
dataloggers for a single-ended measurement are given in Table 7-5.

ANALOG INPUTS (SE1-SE16 or DIFF1-DIFF8)

8 differential (DF) or 16 single-ended (SE) individually
configured. Channel expansion provided by AM16/32B
and AM25T multiplexers.

RANGES and RESOLUTION: Basic resolution
(Basic Res) is the A/D resolution of a single
conversion. Resolution of DF measurements
with input reversal is half the Basic Res.

±(0.12% of reading + offset), -25° to 50°C
±(0.18% of reading + offset), -55° to 85°C (-XT only)

3

Accuracy does not include the sensor and measurement
noise. The offsets are defined as:
Offset for DF w/input reversal = 1.5·Basic Res + 1.0 µV
Offset for DF w/o input reversal = 3·Basic Res + 2.0 µV
Offset for SE = 3·Basic Res + 3.0 µV

INPUT NOISE VOLTAGE: For DF measurements
with input reversal on ±2.5 mV input range; digital
resolution dominates for higher ranges.

Accuracy does not include the sensor and measurement
noise. The offsets are defined as:
Offset for DF w/input reversal = 1.5·Basic Res + 1.0 µV
Offset for DF w/o input reversal = 3·Basic Res + 2.0 µV
Offset for SE = 3·Basic Res + 3.0 µV

x

Offset values are reduced by a factor of 2 when
excitation reversal is used.

PERIOD AVERAGE

Any of the16 SE analog inputs can be used for period
averaging. Accuracy is ±(0.01% of reading + resolu­tion), where resolution is 136 ns divided by the speci­fied number of cycles to be measured.
