Silicon-cell Photodiode Pyranometers


Pyranometer sensors measure

the shortwave radiation reaching

the Earth's surface, measured in Joules m-2 s-1 or Watts m-2.

MOUNTING THE PYRANOMETER

Each pyranometer is equipped with a mounting bolt. Mount the pyranometer as level as possible. Small changes in level can cause measurement errors.

We recommend using our leveling plate (Model AL-100) for the most accurate measurements.

The pyranometer should be mounted with the cable pointing toward the nearest magnetic pole to minimize azimuth error.
