Overview & Identication
External temperature and humidity sensors are
aected by solar heat gain. The BAPI Weather
Shade eectively reduces the solar heat gain,
improving the accuracy of the sensor.
The pre-assembled Weather Shade Kit includes
a shade and din rail bracket, two capped
mounting tubes, one adjustable clamp and one
adjustable clamp with bracket.
1. Mount Temp/Humidity sensor on a north
facing wall.
2. Screw Part B to top of enclosure. See note*
below.
3. Place Part E on Part B with screw facing up
and tighten hose clamp. Then screw on Part
C to top of Part B.
4. Place Part F on bottom probe with hose
clamp screw facing up and tighten hose
clamp screw.
5. Line up bracket to mounting surface and
tighten screw so bracket is ush with
mounting surface.
6. Obtain Part A and slide DIN rail through inner
slots of Parts E and F and push until it stops.
7. Screw Part D on to bolt of cone (Part A) and
fasten to Part F.
*Note: Part G provided if threads do not exist in
the enclosure.
**Note: If Weather Shade is swiveling, refer
to Step 5 and ensure bracket is ush with
mounting surface.
