概要

The CS516-LQ consists of a CS506 Fuel Moisture Probe, a 26601 10-hour Fuel Moisture Stick, a CS205 Fuel Temperature Stick, and a 107 Thermistor mounted on a 26817 Mounting Stake. The cables on the CS506 and 107 probes have a user-specified length and terminate in a military style connector instead of pigtails. The connector attaches to the RAWS-P enclosure, which mounts to a Campbell Scientific tripod or tower.

詳細

Fuel temperature is measured by inserting the thermistor-based 107 probe inside of the CS205 dowel. Dowel replacement is recommended every spring; more frequent replacement may be required in some environments (i.e., those with a large number of wet/dry cycles).

The CS506 Fuel Moisture Sensor consists of an epoxy-encapsulated electronics package. It uses Time Domain Reflectometry to measure the moisture content of the USFS-specified, 10-hour, ponderosa pine dowel. No artificial materials (e.g., epoxy sealant) are added to the dowel that would adversely influence the natural behavior characteristics of it. Because the complete dowel surface is accessible for moisture exchange, the response of the CS506 is similar to that of the traditional weighing racks.

To optimize probe-to-probe repeatability and to allow probe interchangeability without individual calibration, two additional sorts are performed on the dowels before they are selected to be used as a sensor. First, the dowels are sorted dry by density to improve accuracy in the dry range of 0 to 15%. Second, the dowels are sorted after a 50-minute soak by weight to reduce probe-to-probe time response variation and minimize variability in the wet range of 20 to 50%.

互換性

The cables on the CS506 and 107 probes have a user-specified length and terminate in a military style connector instead of pigtails. The connector attaches to the RAWS-P enclosure, which mounts to a Campbell Scientific tripod or tower.

The CS516-LQ is not compatible with data loggers in the CR300 series and the CR200(X) series.

    • The CS506-L Fuel Moisture Sensor uses a 26601 10-Hour Fuel Moisture Stick.
    • The 107 Temperature Probe uses a CS205 10-Hour Fuel Temperature Stick.

    Both of these dowels can be easily replaced in the field with a Phillips screwdriver and an adjustable wrench.

  1. For descriptions and illustrations (with part numbers) of the various instruments used in measuring fuel temperature and moisture, see the "Remote Measurements" brochure.

  2. すべてのセンサに異なるケーブル終端オプションがあるわけではありません。特定のセンサで利用可能なオプションは、センサ製品ページの注文情報エリアの 2 つの場所で確認できます。

    モデル番号
    ケーブル終端オプション リスト
    センサが –ET、–ETM、–LC、–LQ、または –QD バージョンで提供されている場合、そのオプションが利用可能かどうかはセンサモデル番号に反映されます。たとえば、034B は 034B-ET、034B-ETM、034B-LC、034B-LQ、および 034B-QD として提供されています。

    その他のすべてのケーブル終端オプション (利用可能な場合) は、センサ製品ページの注文情報エリアの「ケーブル終端オプション」の下にリストされています。たとえば、034B-L 風力発電セットは、034B-L 製品ページの注文情報エリアに示されているように、–CWS、–PT、および –PW オプションで提供されています。

    注意: 新しい製品が在庫に追加されると、通常は複数のモデル番号を作成するのではなく、1 つのセンサモデルの下に複数のケーブル終端オプションをリストします。たとえば、HC2S3-L には、HC2S3-LC モデルではなく、CS110 に接続するための –C ケーブル終端オプションがあります。

  3. Most Campbell Scientific sensors are available as an –L, which indicates a user-specified cable length. If a sensor is listed as an –LX model (where “X” is some other character), that sensor’s cable has a user-specified length, but it terminates with a specific connector for a unique system:

    • An –LC model has a user-specified cable length for connection to an ET107, CS110, or retired Metdata1.
    • An –LQ model has a user-specified cable length for connection to a RAWS-P weather station.

    If a sensor does not have an –L or other –LX designation after the main model number, the sensor has a set cable length. The cable length is listed at the end of the Description field in the product’s Ordering information. For example, the 034B-ET model has a description of “Met One Wind Set for ET Station, 67 inch Cable.” Products with a set cable length terminate, as a default, with pigtails.

    If a cable terminates with a special connector for a unique system, the end of the model number designates which system. For example, the 034B-ET model designates the sensor as a 034B for an ET107 system.

    • –ET models terminate with the connector for an ET107 weather station.
    • –ETM models terminate with the connector for an ET107 weather station, but they also include a special system mounting, which is often convenient when purchasing a replacement part.
    • –QD models terminate with the connector for a RAWS-F Quick Deployment Station.
    • –PW models terminate with the connector for a PWENC or pre-wired system.
  4. Many Campbell Scientific sensors are available with different cable termination options. These options include the following:

    • The –PT (–PT w/Tinned Wires) option is the default option and does not display on the product line as the other options do. The cable terminates in pigtails that connect directly to a data logger.
    • In the –C (–C w/ET/CS110 Connector) option, the cable terminates in a connector that attaches to a CS110 Electric Field Meter or an ET-series weather station.
    • In the –CWS (–CWS w/CWS900 Connector) option, the cable terminates in a connector that attaches to a CWS900-series interface. Connection to a CWS900-series interface allows the sensor to be used in a wireless sensor network.
    • In the –PW (–PW w/Pre-Wire Connector) option, the cable terminates in a connector that attaches to a prewired enclosure.
    • In the –RQ (–RQ w/RAWS Connector) option, the cable terminates in a connector that attaches to a RAWS-P Permanent Remote Automated Weather Station.

    Note: The availability of cable termination options varies by sensor. For example, sensors may have none, two, or several options to choose from. If a desired option is not listed for a specific sensor, contact Campbell Scientific for assistance.

  5. Both the 26601 10-Hour Fuel Moisture Stick (used with the CS506-L) and the CS205 10-Hour Fuel Temperature Stick (used with the 107-L) can be easily replaced in the field with a Phillips screwdriver and an adjustable wrench.

    The dowels should be replaced each spring; more frequent replacements may be required in some environments. The more wet/dry cycles the dowels experience, the more frequently they will need to be replaced.
