RS3

The RS3 Solar Radiation Shield protects external sensors from the effects of sunlight and rain to ensure high accuracy measurements. Designed to allow maximum air flow around the sensor, the RS3 shield offers 2.5x faster response time to changing conditions.

The RS3 Solar Radiation Shield works with most of Onset’s external temperature and Temp/RH sensors, including those for our award winning HOBO Weather Station products.

Onset also offers two other models of solar radiation shields; the RS1 and the pre-assembled M-RSA
