1. Introduction
The ClimaVUE™50 is an affordable all-in-one meteorological sensor that fulfills your common
weather monitoring needs with simplicity when paired with the flexible and scalable Campbell
Scientific data-acquisition platforms. This sensor uses the SDI-12 serial protocol to report air
temperature, relative humidity, vapor pressure, barometric pressure, wind (speed, gust, and
direction), solar radiation, precipitation, and lightning strike (count and distance). It does this
with no moving parts, while consuming little power. A built-in tilt sensor indicates when the
mounting mast has tilted. This diverse product is great for quick deployment, for remote
locations, to fill gaps in large networks, as part of a more complex system, or if you just need
something simple.

2. Precautions
l READ AND UNDERSTAND the Safety section at the back of this manual.
l Care should be taken when opening the shipping package to not damage or cut the cable
jacket. If damage to the cable is suspected, consult with a Campbell Scientific support and
implementation engineer.
l The ClimaVUE 50 is a precision instrument. Please handle it with care.
l To avoid shock or damage to the instrument, never apply power while wiring.
l Ensure that the ClimaVUE 50 is properly wired to the data logger before applying power.
Applying power when incorrectly wired could damage the ClimaVUE 50 beyond repair.
l When mounting the ClimaVUE 50 to the mast, do not over-tighten the V bolt as it will
cause the plastic to break.
