Overview

The CS106, manufactured by Vaisala, measures barometric pressure for the range of 500 to 1100 hPa (mBar). This range equates to from below sea level (as in a mine) to over 15,000 feet above sea level. Designed for use in environmental applications, the CS106 is compatible with most Campbell Scientific data loggers. The CS106 has an attached 76.2 cm (30 in.) cable.

Key Advantages

Wider Pressure Range
Resides inside weatherproof enclosure

Technical Description

The CS106 uses Vaisala’s BAROCAP silicon capacitive sensor to measure barometric pressure. It is encased in a plastic shell (ABS/PC blend) fitted with an intake valve for pressure equilibration.

The CS106 outputs a linear signal of 0 to 2.5 Vdc, which allows the barometer to be directly connected to a Campbell Scientific data logger. An internal switching circuit allows the data logger to power the CS106 only during measurement, which reduces power consumption.

Benefits

Optimized to mount in Campbell Scientific enclosures
Integral switching circuit limits power consumption to measurement cycle
Three-year warranty

Barometer Calibration with Data
Campbell Scientific offers a seven-point NIST-traceable calibration service for the CS106. The barometer is calibrated to meet original specification. Factory calibration requires an RMA (Returned Material Authorization). Because the calibration is done in-house rather than at a manufacturer's facility, the standard turn-around time is only one week.

Data Logger Considerations

A 2.5-ft cable is supplied with the sensor for connection to the data logger. The cable connects to a control port, single-ended analog input terminal, 12 V power terminal, and ground terminal on the data logger.

Mounting

The CS106 is typically mounted next to the data logger inside an ENC12/14 or larger enclosure. The very small ENC100 is available for housing the CS106 separately, in its own enclosure.
