Pyranometer sensor provides accurate total solar radiation measurement with fast response and stable optical performance. Its durable, corrosion-resistant housing ensures long outdoor service life, while precise light tracking supports reliable monitoring in changing environments. Compatible with AC/DC power and offering 0-2V, 4-20mA, and RS485 outputs, the radiation sensor delivers 1 W/m² resolution and 7-14 μV/W·m⁻² sensitivity for easy integration into solar, meteorological, and environmental monitoring systems.
A pyranometer is a specialized instrument designed to measure global solar irradiance, capturing both direct sunlight and diffuse sky radiation over a broad spectrum.
It uses a thermopile sensing element that absorbs solar radiation and converts the resulting temperature difference into a small electrical signal proportional to irradiance.
A light sensor detects mainly visible light, while a pyranometer measures total shortwave solar energy, including UV and near-infrared components, making it far more comprehensive.
