01 Sensor

PYRANOMETER

IP200-03 Pyranometer is produced based on the thermopile principle; sensing elements are made by wound plated thermopiles with multiple contacts. Its surface is coated by black coating with high absorption rate.

IP200-03 Pyranometer is produced based on the thermopile principle; sensing elements are made by wound plated thermopiles with multiple contacts. Its surface is coated by black coating with high absorption rate. Hot contacts on the sensors surface, while the cold junction is located within the body, temperature difference between the hot and cold junction generates an electromotive force, the thermoelectric effect is proportional to the solar radiation. In order to reduce the ambient temperature effect, temperature compensation circuit designed here to minimize its impact on the product's performance. The RK200-03 series pyranometer has been certified by the National Meteorological Administration and the National Institute of Metrology (NIM).
