About Radiation Shields

Fan-aspirated radiation shields are designed to shield temperature and humidity sensors from incident solar radiation while maintaining equilibrium with ambient air through active aspiration by a fan.

Typical Applications

Applications include air temperature and humidity measurements in weather networks, often for weather forecasting. Fan-aspirated shields are also important in the precise measurement of air temperature and humidity gradients above the land surface and in climate change monitoring.
