1Introduction
TBAR-IVS is a sensor for the measurement of atmospheric pressure which can be used for the most common
meteorological applications, thanks to its good perfomance in terms of accuracy and sensitivity. TBAR-IVS is
equipped with a piezoresistive electronic transducer with linear output. An internal electronic system
compensates automatically the variation in temperature, ensuring a high precision over the whole
measurement range. The transducer is based on a micro-processor chip that executes many functions. Mainly
it performs assuring for instance the correct control functioning, or data pre-processing and electrical signal
A/D conversion. TBAR-IVS is housed into an IP-65 box that guarantees a proper functioning of the sensor in
outdoor installations, even in harsh environmental conditions. The sensor is supplied with power and signal
cable (4m).

3Installallation and maintenance
3.1 Installation
For correct installation, the monitoring station should be placed at a distance from the closest obstacle (pylons,
trees, buildings) equal to 10 times the height of the obstacle itself.
Normally, according to WMO standards, the installation height of the sensor must be between 1.25 and 2
meters.
The sensor is provided with a fixing bracket with 2 holes with a 52mm center distance. As highlighted in the
image below, the sensor can be fixed without distinction in any position of the Siap+Micros standard support
bracket using 2 bolts.
3.2 Maintenance
This type of transducer does not require particular maintenance operations, it is advisable to periodically
check the factory calibration with sample instruments

4.3 Data readinding in serial (RS485 Modbus)
Sensors with RS485 Modbus or SDI-12 output send data only upon specific request from the PC, data logger
or PLC.
Below are the correct communication parameters of the device performing the interrogation.
