Overview

The UT10 is an aluminum, corrosion-resistant tower that provides a 10 ft (3 m) crossarm height. This general-purpose tower supports the attachment of sensors, mounts, solar panels, antennas, and environmental enclosures. The UT10 includes a lightning and grounding rod, grounding cables, grounding-cable clamps, hinged base, and UV-resistant cable ties. A J-bolt kit is used to secure the base to the concrete pad. This kit is ordered as an option, so it can be ordered separately and shipped before the rest of the tower.

The UT10 is used as a sturdy, long-term instrument mount for a variety of applications. It can be augmented with mounts (for example, CM204, CM220, CM225) that allow attachment of meteorological sensors such as wind sets, pyranometers, and temperature/relative humidity probes. Other meteorological sensors such as barometers, soil temperature and moisture probes, and rain gages can also be used with a UT10-based station.

Key Advantages

Sturdy, Long-Term Instrument Mount

Technical Description

The tower consists of 2.5 cm (1 in.) OD corrosion-resistant aluminum tubing. In cross-section, it is 25.7 cm (10.1 in.) on a side (center of tubing to center of tubing). It includes an adjustable mast, a hinged base, lightning rod, grounding rod, and cable tie kit.

The J-bolt kit is required to assemble the tower to its concrete pad.

The J-bolt kit can be ordered as the -J option, and the kit is delivered with the rest of the tower.
If the -NJ option is ordered, without the J-bolt kit, and the kit is ordered separately, the user can have delivery on the J-bolt kit prior to the rest of the tower, making the parts available when the concrete pad is poured.

Maximum Wind Load Recommendation

-NOTE-: Wind load endurance is affected by quality of anchoring and installation; soil type; and number, type, and location of instruments fastened to the tower.

Wind load recommendation assumes proper installation, proper anchoring, adequate soil, and total instrument projected area of less than 0.19 m² (2 ft²) at the height of the tower.
Wind Load Recommendation: 177 km/h
(110 mph) for gusts

Enclosure Brackets

The “-TM” mount option for our environmental enclosures is used to attach our enclosures to a UT10 tower. An enclosure ordered with the “-TM” option will be shipped with a three-piece bracket mounted to the top of the enclosure and an identical three-piece bracket mounted to the bottom of the enclosure. This mounting bracket option uses the same three-piece brackets as the "-MM" option, except the pieces are rearranged so that the flanges are on the side of the bracket instead of in the middle. The distance between the centers of each flange needs to be 10.25 in.
