Mounting Considerations:
» The rain gauge must be level to provide accurate rainfall measurements.
Ensure that your chosen mounting location is sturdy and does not sway in the
wind with the additional weight of the station. Excess motion or tilting will
greatly reduce the accuracy of rainfall measurements.
» The assembled station weighs 8.4 lbs, but wind will increase loading on the
mount. Mounting hardware is not included with the station.
» In the Northern Hemisphere, the PV power panel must point south to capture
maximum solar energy and for the anemometer to provide accurate wind
direction. In the Southern Hemisphere, the panel should point north.
