Gill Pressure Port

The Model 61002-33 Gill Pressure Port provides an effective
static pressure inlet for a barometric pressure sensor.
Measurement performance of remote barometers can be
seriously impaired by the effects of wind at the barometer
inlet. Ambient wind of 20 meters/second blowing over a typical
barometer inlet tube can cause dynamic pressure errors as high
as 3 millibars. 1 These errors can make atmospheric pressure data
useless for research and forecast purposes. The Gill Pressure
Port reduces dynamic pressure errors to a minimum level.
The unique parallel plate design of the Pressure Port effectively
slows air velocity at the pressure inlet. A simple internal baffle
system creates a barrier to water and snow intrusion into the
barometer.
The Gill Pressure Port features durable, corrosion resistant
plastic construction for long service and minimum cost.
