RAWS-F Remote Automated Weather
Station for Fire Weather

1. Introduction

The RAWS-F Fire Weather Quick Deployment Station is a lightweight, pre-
configured station that can be set up in less than 10 minutes—without tools
(see Section 2, Getting Started). The aluminum environmental enclosure
houses a 12 V rechargeable battery and a CR1000 datalogger mounted to a 6 ft
tripod. The outside of the enclosure has color-coded, keyed connectors
(FIGURE 1-1) for attaching the sensors. Besides the connectors, a wiring
panel is included allowing the measurement of additional sensors. The
RAWS-F typically communicates via our GOES satellite transmitter. It is also
compatible with other communication equipment such as telephones, digital
cellular transceivers, and radios. This station is ideal for prescribed burns or
other temporary installations. The RAWS-F Quick Deployment Weather
Station is shown in FIGURE 1-2.
