Selecting the Location

Finding a suitable site for Weather Transmitter WXT520 is important
for getting representative ambient measurements. The site should
represent the general area of interest.

Weather Transmitter WXT520 should be installed in a location that is
free from turbulence caused by nearby objects, such as trees and
buildings. In general, any object of height (h) will not remarkably
disturb wind measurement at a minimum distance of 10 h. There should
be at least 150 m open area in all directions from the mast. Refer to

Figure 10 on page 32
