Radiation Sensors
Pyranometers is used to measure the total amount of solar radiation (both direct and diffuse) sensor received from the sun on a horizontal surface. Engineers design the pyranometer sensor to measure the radiant energy across a broad wavelength range (typically 285 to 3000 nm) and provide an output in watts per square meter (W/m²).
We widely use pyranometers in solar energy applications, including solar panel installations, solar radiation monitoring for agricultural use, and evaluating the potential for solar energy generation at specific sites.
Researchers use pyranometer sensors in weather stations and climate research to study solar radiation patterns and their impact on weather patterns and climate change. CODA manufactures solar radiation sensors according to customer requirements.
High Accuracy:
It can accurately measure the total solar radiation, with a test accuracy of generally less than 5%.
Wide Measurement Range:
It can measure solar radiation in the range of 0 – 2000W/m², which can meet the measurement requirements in different environments.
Good Stability:
With a stability of ±2%, it can maintain relatively stable measurement performance within a certain period.
Fast Response:
The response time is ≤30 seconds (99%), which can quickly respond to changes in solar radiation.
