Model CS205 10-hour Fuel Temperature
Stick
1. General Description
The CS205 Temperature Stick is a Ponderosa pine dowel 4.5 inches long and
0.5 inches in diameter. The dowel is fabricated to USFS specifications, to be
used as a fuel moisture sensor. Campbell Scientific, Inc. has bored a hole and
cut a split into one end of the dowel. A model 107 Temperature Probe is
inserted into the CS205 to measure fuel temperature.
The CS205 Fuel Temperature Stick mounts on the 10974 Fuel
Moisture/Temperature Mounting Stake. The CS205 is most commonly
installed along with a CS505 Fuel Moisture Sensor but can be used alone.

Temperature Mounting Stake. Loosen the compression fitting so that the
CS205 can be inserted. The CS205 inserts into the compression fitting so that
compression is applied to the split end of the stick gripping the 107 probe.
