Mounts and Stevenson screen to Netatmo (weather)

After some months on the table outside it was finally time for me time to fix some mounts for my Netatmo products. I have made this mount for pipes with 25mm diameter. It's a fairly standard size that's not too big or too small. It's my 100% own design. I have tried to make it as easy as possible. 

Some information that can be good to know:

• Use ABS filament beacuse the items shall be outdoors. 
• Use only white ABS filament for the Stevenson Screen, other colours may affect the measuring results.

• I have been used Bambu Lab X1 Carbon with textured PEI plate for my prints. I had some problems

  in the beginning with warping. I notice it was better with 100°C then standard 90°C bed temperature.

• Clean the plate with dishwashing liquid and warm water before printing. 

• Tighten the screws evenly and don't tighten to hard. 

  

• Preasssemble and test all parts before installation if necessary.
• Change to new battery before installation?

If something is unclear, please comment. This the most complex models I have made with a lot of parts.

Type A consist of:

1Pcs mount with holes for two screws.

1Pcs Clamp with holes for two nuts.

Type B consist of:

1Pcs mount with holes for two nuts.

There are two ways to install the mounts. 

1. You can use them “stand alone”, Type A. 

    

   

   

    

   or

    

2. You can mount them “side by side”. One must be Type A and the other one must be Type B.

   (No need to print the clamp that is in Type A models, you can use the cut tool in Bambu Studio to delete it)

    

   

   

    

Either if you use mount Type A as a ‘stand alone’ 

or 

Type A and Type B in a “side by side” installation you need:

2Pcs Stainless steel Slotted Cheese Head Screws M5 x 30mm. 

2Pcs Stainless steel nuts M5, preferably lock nuts.

And when you shall install the Netatmo products to the mount you need following parts:

Rain Gauge

1Pcs screw 1/4", length 1/2 inch (approx 12,7mm, not longer!)  (Standard camera mount thread)

(I have used screws from this kit: https://www.amazon.se/dp/B09J3NF3FR?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title)

Wind Gauge 

1Pcs screw 1/4", length 1/2 inch (approx 12,7mm, not longer!)  (Standard camera mount thread)

(I have used screws from this kit: https://www.amazon.se/dp/B09J3NF3FR?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title)

Outdoor Module

2Pcs Stainless steel Slotted Cheese Head Screws M5 x 20mm.

2Pcs Stainless steel nuts M5, preferably lock nuts.

For people who is living in Sweden, Norway, Finland or Poland I have bought 

the screws and nuts from the company Jula (Jula.se, Jula.no, Jula.fi, jula.at):

10Pcs M5 x 20mm, art.no 315523 

10Pcs M5 x 30mm, art.no 315531

10Pcs M5 lock nuts, art.no 316257

If you only want to use the Stevenson screen for your Outdoor Module you need:

2Pcs Stainless steel Slotted Cheese Head Screws M5 x 15mm. 

2Pcs Stainless steel nuts M5, preferably lock nuts.

For the assembly of the Stevenson screen you need to take it slow and careful.

1. Start with the lid and install the nuts.

   

    

2. Turn it upside down and place the Outdoor Module into the lid. 

   Please notice how the Outdoor Module is placed! Very important!

   And after installing the screens, you will see how they should be fixed.

   

   

    

3. Carefully place the bottom on the top and see so everything fits good before you screw in the screws. 

   Notice, if you push too hard you push out the nuts from the holes. If it happens, you can fix it by take a

   finger between the screens and get the nut back in the hole. The same if you shall unscrew, don't push.

   If you shall use a mount you shall screw the screws thru the mount first of course. :)

   

    

4. Then you are finish with assembly of the Stevenson screen. 

   

   

Update 2025-09-11

Added a protective cover for the wind gauge. Not the "prettiest", but it works. 

Have used it for maybe 3 months without problem with water inside.

The user Werigandus have made a customizable adapter from different diameters to 20mm that my models are designed for.

You find the model here: Adapter for Netatmo Mounts (parametrizable)

Many thanks for this Werigandus!  

Update 2025-07-21.

Added wall mounts for:

Outdoor Module

Rain Gauge

Wind Gauge

Update 2025-07-16.

I have reinforced the wind gauge a little, I get a slight feeling on my own wind gauge that it might be needed.

All print profiles are also for A1 Mini from today.

Update 2025-01-27.

I have reinforced the model for the Wind Gauge to better handle the weight of the Wind Guage, not sure the previous version was to weak, but I do this to be on the safe side.
