Radiation Sensors

• Global (Total) and Diffuse irradiance in W.m-2
• WMO sunshine threshold: 120 W.m-2 direct beam
• No moving parts, shade rings or motorised tracking

The new Sunshine Pyranometer is a patented, meteorological class instrument for measuring global and diffuse radiation and sunshine duration.

• Measures global and diffuse radiation, and sunshine duration
• PAR reference sensor for SunScan System
• Outputs can be PAR (mmol.m-2.s-1), Energy (W.m-2) or Lux

An affordable sensor for measuring global and diffuse radiation and sunshine duration, with wider accuracy tolerances than the SPN1 Sunshine Pyranometer.
