  • Page 3: Checklist

    Your Weather sensor was carefully inspected and certified by our Quality Assurance Team before shipping. If any damage has occurred during shipping, please notify Global Water Instrumentation, Inc. and file a claim with the carrier involved. Use the checklist to ensure that you have received everything needed to operate the IF200.
  • Page 4: General Sensor Installation

    You may need to remove and reinstall it in the future, so plan ahead! c. All Global Water Weather sensors produce a 4-20 mA output signal. 4-20 mA is an industrial standard signal for process control monitoring. Most PLCs (Programmable Logic Controller), RTUs (Remote Telemetry Unit), and data acquisition systems accept this signal directly.
