The FW1 Fine Wire Thermocouple is typically used to measure atmospheric temperature gradients or fluctuations. The small mass of the thermocouple is less susceptible to solar loading; therefore, a radiation shield is not required. One differential analog input per sensor is required.
The FW01 is a type E thermocouple with a 0.001-inch diameter. This thermocouple has research-grade accuracy and its small mass makes it less susceptible to solar loading, eliminating the need for a radiation shield.
Typically used to measure atmospheric temperature gradients or fluctuations, the FW1 is compatible with most Campbell Scientific dataloggers.
