CM206

The CM206 is a crossarm that attaches to an instrumentation tower or tripod. It provides a rugged, weather-resistant sensor mount for up to two sensors. The CM206 is compatible with our tripods and towers. It can be attached to a tripod mast or a user-supplied pole.

Note: In the image, the dark gray components are those included with the CM206. The lighter components are sold separately and demonstrate how the CM206 is used.

The CM206 provides a rugged, weather-resistant sensor mount for one or two sensors. It consists of a 6-ft aluminum pipe and the CM210 mounting bracket kit. U-bolts included with the mounting bracket are used to attach the crossarm to a tripod mast, tower leg, or user-supplied vertical pipe (1.0” to 2.1” OD). All of our tripods and towers are compatible with the CM206. If the CM206 will be mounted on a tower, an additional CM210 bracket can be added so that the crossarm is secured to two of the three vertical risers within the tower.

A U-bolt mounting scheme allows the crossarm to be secured to the tripod or tower at the optimal measurement height for the sensor. The sensor is then mounted to the other end of the crossarm using a variety of mounts—depending on the sensor being deployed. The options available for mounting the sensor to the crossarm are listed as Common Accessories under the Ordering Info tab.
