General Description

The CS500 is a modified version of Vaisala's 50Y Humitter. The CS500 measures air temperature with a 1000 ohm platinum resistance thermometer (PRT); RH is measured by a laser-trimmed INTERCAP® capacitive chip. The chip is field-replaceable, as needed, and eliminates the downtime typically required for the recalibration process.

Sensor Mounts
When exposed to sunlight, the CS500 must be housed in a radiation shield. If the CS500 is mounted to a CM6/CM10 tripod or a UT10 tower, a model 41303 6-plate radiation shield is used. If the CS500 is mounted on a UT20 or UT30 tower, a UT018 Crossarm and Mounting Bracket and a UT6P 6-plate radiation shield are used.
