Overview

The CM216 provides both a 3/4-inch IPS (1.05-inch OD) and a 1-inch IPS (1.32-inch OD) mounting pipe that extends 4 inches above the mast. They are pipes with an adapter that bolts to the inside of the top of a CM106B tripod; a stainless-steel CM110, CM115, or CM120 tripod; or a CM300, CM305, or CM310 mounting pole. A sensor with a 1.05- or 1.32-inch ID fitting (typically a wind sensor or the R. M. Young rain/snow gage) can then be mounted on this pipe.

Additional Compatibility Information

Wind Sensor Considerations

A lightning rod cannot be used when this mount attaches a Wind Monitor or a 03002 Wind Sentry atop the tripod’s mast. Therefore the CM216 is only recommended for mounting a Wind Monitor or 03002 if the deployment is short-term.

Sensors

The CM216 is compatible with sensors that have a 0.75 or 1 in. size (1 or 1.32 in. OD) pipe mount.
