Seeed Studio A10 | Passive Solar Radiation Shield for Outdoor Sensor Protection

$38.69

The Seeed Studio A10 Solar Radiation Shield is a critical accessory for any outdoor environmental monitoring station. Direct exposure to sunlight can cause temperature sensors to report readings significantly higher than the actual ambient air temperature. The A10 utilizes a multi-plate, louvered design that effectively blocks direct solar radiation and reflected heat while allowing air to flow freely across the sensor probe. This ensures that your LoRaWAN or cellular weather nodes deliver the most accurate data possible in all weather conditions.

Optimized Sensor Environment

Passive Cooling The white, high-reflectivity surface minimizes heat absorption, keeping the internal chamber at ambient temperature.

Rain & Snow Protection Protects internal electronics from vertical and wind-driven rain, extending the operational life of your sensors.

Multi-Sensor Support Designed to house various probe diameters, including Seeed SenseCap, Dragino, and Milesight environmental sensors.

UV-Stabilized Plastic Manufactured using high-quality materials that resist yellowing, cracking, and degradation in intense sunlight.

Professional Use Cases

• Smart Agriculture: Obtain precise micro-climate data for crop management without interference from heat-reflective soil.

• Urban Heat Island Mapping: Securely mount sensors to city infrastructure while ensuring accurate ambient temperature readings.

• Remote Weather Stations: Protect high-sensitivity meteorological probes in harsh, unshaded field environments.

Installation & Integration

The A10 features a modular plate design that can be adjusted to fit different sensor lengths. It includes a robust mounting bracket compatible with pole or wall installation. For optimal performance, the shield should be mounted at least 1.5 to 2 meters above the ground in a location with good natural ventilation.
