SP230SS Heated Pyranometer

The SP230SS uses a silicon photovoltaic detector mounted in a cosine-corrected head to provide solar radiation measurements. It is calibrated against a Kipp & Zonen CM21 thermopile pyranometer to accurately measure sun plus sky radiation for the spectral range of 360 to 1120 nm. The SP230SS outputs a millivolt signal that Campbell Scientific data loggers can measure.

Note: Sensors calibrated to the 360 to 1120 nm spectral range should not be used under vegetation or artificial lights.

Benefits and Features

• • Designed to prevent snow, frost, and dew accumulation
  • Heater uses 1/80^th of the power that other heated pyranometers use, making it ideal for remote battery-powered applications
  • Measurement waveband of 360 to 1120 nm
  • Compatible with most Campbell Scientific data loggers
  • Dome-shaped head prevents water from accumulating on the sensor head
