Features

Suitable for various harsh environments

High cost performance

high sensitivity

Passive precision measurement

Simple structure, easy to use

 Product Principle

The solar radiation sensor is used to measure the short-wave radiation of the sun.   It uses a silicon photodetector to generate a voltage output signal proportional to the incident light.   In order to reduce the cosine error, a cosine corrector is installed in the instrument.   The radiometer can be directly connected to the Digital voltmeter or digital logger is connected to measure radiation intensity.

Multiple output methods

4-20mA/RS485 output can be choosed

GPRS/ 4G/ WIFI /LORA/ LORAWAN wireless module

Matched cloud server &software can be used

The product can be equipped with cloud server and software,and real-time data can be viewed on the computer in real time

Product Application

This product can be widely used in agricultural and forestry ecological radiation monitoring, solar thermal utilization research, tourism environmental protection ecology, agricultural meteorology research, crop growth monitoring, greenhouse control.
