The integrated solar radiation sensor/pyranometer is a highly accurate instrument which uses a thermal sensor mounted at its base and is protected by a single glass dome to record the amount of light in watts per metre2. It is widely used in agro-meteorological applications and for monitoring the performance of solar panels.
Features
Overview
A combined temperature, humidity, pressure instrument and solar radiation instrument mounted inside three double louvered, naturally aspirated radiation shields with no moving parts. The results are high performance across each measurement over long periods of time.
