Überblick

Der 26601 ist ein Stab aus dem Holz von Gelbkiefern, der eine Abschätzung der Feuchte in ähnlich großen Ästen auf dem Waldboden ermöglicht. Der CS506 Brennstoffeuchtesensor wird damit verbunden und misst seinen Feuchtegehalt. Die Kombination CS506/26601 wird häufig zur Warnung vor Waldbränden eingesetzt.

Funktionen und Vorteile

  • Constructed from the same carefully selected USFS-standard ponderosa dowel as the traditional weighing fuel-moisture rack
  • Verwendet mit dem CS605 um Brennstofffeuchte in Waldbrandgebieten zu bestimmen

Technische Beschreibung

The 10-hour Fuel Moisture Stick is constructed from the same carefully selected USFS-standard ponderosa dowel as the traditional weighing fuel-moisture rack. No artificial materials (e.g., epoxy sealant) are added to the dowel that would adversely influence the natural behaviour characteristics of it. Because the complete dowel surface is accessible for moisture exchange, the response of the CS506 is similar to that of the traditional weighing racks.

To optimize probe-to-probe repeatability and to allow probe interchangeability without individual calibration, two additional sorts are performed on the dowels before they are selected to be used as a sensor. First, the dowels are sorted dry by density to improve accuracy in the dry range of 0 to 15%. Second, the dowels are sorted after a 50-minute soak by weight to reduce probe-to-probe time response variation and minimize variability in the wet range of 20 to 50%.

Replacement Dowels

The fuel stick is easily replaced in the field using a Phillips screwdriver and an adjustable wrench. Customers should replace the stick each spring; more frequent replacements may be required in some environments. The more wet/dry cycles the fuel stick experiences the more frequently it will need to be replaced.

Fuel Moisture Sensors

The 26601 10-hour Fuel Moisture Stick is used with the CS506 Fuel Moisture Sensor. The CS506 fastens onto the 26601 using two stainless-steel strips pressed into groves in the dowel.

The 26601 is not compatible with the retired CS505 Fuel Moisture Sensor.

Fuel Temperature

The CS506/26601 combination is typically measured alongside the CS205/107 combination, which measures the fuel temperature.

Mounting

The 26817 Mounting Stake is often used to mount the CS506/26601 with the CS205/107. This stake places the probes twelve inches above the forest floor. Because the probes are mounted parallel to each other, shadowing is minimized. Cable ties are included for securing the cables to the side of the stake.
