Aspen 10 to optimize the solar panel angle in certain areas. Elsewhere, it should be mounted in a near-vertical orientation. Figure 3-1. Recommended solar panel orientation The following image shows a typical installation of an Aspen 10 with a RainVUE sensor.
1. If needed, install the snap-on 10° tilt spacer, see Figure 3-1 (p. 4). 2. Use simple cable ties (included) to mount the Aspen 10 to a vertical post. 3. Fit the extension cable connector to the sensor cable connector. Hand tighten the connectors.
Aspen 10 and shunt transients away from electronics. Campbell Scientific recommends 14 AWG wire. Drive a ground rod close to the Aspen 10. Drive the rod at an angle if an impenetrable hard-pan layer exists. Crimp one end of the ground wire to the insulated push-on ground terminal and slide it onto the ground spade.
Ensure all local electrical codes are followed by having electrical equipment and grounding installed by a licensed electrician. 3.3 Sensor connector The Aspen 10 has an 8-pin M12 connector for approved cables and sensors. Individual pins and sockets are non-accessible. See product specifications ...
