Series RHRS Outside Air Humidity Radiation Shield

Specifications - Installation and Operating Instructions

Picture shown with Series RHP Humidity Transmitter (sold separately)

The Series RHRS Radiation Shield protects outside air humidity transmitters from

rain and radiated heat. With the curved shape and color of the plates, air flow is
able to move across the sensor to keep radiated temperatures from rooftops and
surrounding surfaces from affecting humidity readings. For ease of installation, the
Series RHRS has integral pipe mounting hardware which can be removed for
surface mounting applications. The brackets on the Series RHRS are specifically
designed to be installed on the Dwyer Series RHP outside air humidity transmitters
with sintered filters.

INSTALLATION

Step 1: Loosen plastic probe retainer on radiation shield by unscrewing two

retainer screws.
Step 2: Slide humidity transmitter probe completely into radiation shield.
Step 3: Screw plastic probe retainer to the radiation shield until the probe is

firmly held in place. Do not over tighten the screws.

For Pipe Mounting
Step 4: Remove the u-bolt from the mounting bracket.
Step 5: Secure the radiation shield to 3/4˝ to 1-1/2˝ iron pipe.

For Surface Mounting
Step 4: Remove the u-bolt and the screw holding the pipe retaining bracket.
Step 5: Mark the outer two holes of the mounting bracket on the surface.
Step 6: Drill the two holes marked in the previous step into the surface.
Step 7: Attach the radiation shield to the surface.

retainer that is included with the unit. This two-sided probe retainer can be used for

being used.
