UT6

UT6 1.8m (6ft) Tower w/Base, Adjustable Mast, & Grounding Kit (Ships as 35696 & 33043)

The UT6 is an aluminum, corrosion-resistant tower that provides a 6 ft (1.83 m) crossarm height. This general-purpose tower supports the attachment of sensors, mounts, solar panels, antennas, and environmental enclosures. The UT6 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 UT6 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 UT6-based station.

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.
