I guess we do not understand. Sensor along with the original paneling looks like this:

And I want to impose orginalna housing cover made by me.
Is it a bad idea? Do I need to remove orginalna chassis and the same sensor that is
the orginalna housing set up their own housing.

I want to do something that is imposed on orginalna not cover the same sensor.
When you use PVC pipe + pots and I will not have a windmill that will not air flow.
Unless you take off the cover and do orginalna pots + pvc pipe - only more drills holes in the pipe so that air can move horizontally.
Wants to do it without a fan:)

You need to remove the original screen from the sensor; it just lifts off and replace it with the better new screen you will make.

You can make the cover without a fan; it will still work and be better than the original cover but not quite as good as a cover with a fan.
The tube is open both ends so the air flows past the sensor. The idea of the new cover is to stop the sun warming up the sensor unit and giving higher readings than the air temperature.

You need to buy some pot saucers, around 6 or 7 and make it as my design in the thread.
Make it the same but without the fan; just leave a hole where the fan would be.

I do not understand everything you say exactly what, as translator does not work
so well. Today I was in the shops of the pots and hard to find exactly
of what is to be done. I will try to even look for it. Pillows are too low
and pots too high.

You say that you must remove the cover orginalna and impose its from 6 - 7 low pots.
From the outside, painted in white on black in the middle. Combine all bolts
at distances 20 - 30 mm. In the middle of the pots make a hole with a diameter of 50 mm
and insert the PVC pipe there. The upper pot is to be without holes. PVC pipe can catch the wire to the bolts so they do not fell down.
Can I also drilled a hole in PVC? That the exchange of air was better?
Do you only leave space on the upper PVC pots.

What material is to be the PVC pipe?

How can I find a good pots, PVC, screw it I will get up for work
and even if you write to priv.

No leave the tube without holes.

Yes all pots the same spacing.
Top of tube joins to second pot, not top pot.


What material is to be the PVC pipe?

Any plastic; do they use 2" pipe for sink drains, etc. in Poland?

How can I find a good pots, PVC, screw it I will get up for work

There are some on ebay, but expensive...

Try your local hardware shop.
Best to post your questions on here as others may be able to help you as well.

You have not yet bought your weather station !

If your sun is weak, and your sensors are in a place of permanent shade - there will not be a problem.

Get your station first - it will will take you some time to decide, for what ever reason, where you can locate your sensors.

You may be limited by your surroundings or your wife :lol:

Take one step at a time ...

Hopefully a translator will cope with above.

Thanks Repairman77

beteljuice,
very funny ...
But really, it takes the store and I do not have stations in the hands of:)
I think that far leave the pots alone and think over the purchase and the appropriate mounting.
I have no wife, and all the happiness:)
