I wonder if it continues the practicality of collocating a Davis sensor or other sensor of known accuracy in the MMTS shield? Any insight on who manufactures that shield? I’ve searched in vain.
Same here, I couldn't find anything on the shield maker, wonder if it wasn't just a one time outside contract due to the fact parts are scarce. I was told this on installation they have to reuse connectors because they are no longer made.
Provided the Nimbus sensor is correct. It's running cooler than the SHT-31 FARS by as much as 2° once we reached into the low 90s one day. Guess the best way to know for sure would be to open the shield and insert a SHT-31 inside and see how it compares with the nimbus probe. I did read somewhere when they started replacing the CRS with the MMTS they noticed about a degree cooler on the MMTS.
I can say the airport ASOS is right with the FARS SHT-31 most days for highs. While the MMTS will lag back a bit on some days.
