Product Description:
The Total Solar Radiation Sensor is a primary radiation meter that measures the irradiance received on the earth plane. It is mainly used to measure the total solar radiation in the wavelength range of 0.3 to 3 microns. If placed horizontally downwards it can measure reflected radiation, and with the addition of a scattering shading ring it can measure scattered radiation. Its working principle is based on the thermoelectric effect, the induction device consists of an induction surface and a thermopile, the induction element is a fast-responding wire-wound plated thermopile, and the induction surface is coated with 3M non-glossy black paint. When the induction surface coated with black to receive radiation to increase the heat, called the hot junction, not coated with black side called the cold junction, when there is sunlight irradiation, resulting in a temperature difference potential, the output potential is proportional to the irradiance received.
Applications:
The total solar radiation sensor can be widely used in meteorological detection, atmospheric environment monitoring, climate observation, solar energy utilization, agriculture, building physics research and other solar radiation energy measurement.

4. Agriculture and forestry ecological research.
5.Environmental science radiation energy balance research.
6.Solar energy building field.
7.Polar, ocean, glacier climate research.
Features:
1.Conforms to WMO World Meteorological Organization specifications (CIMO Guide).
2.Applicable to a variety of harsh environments.
3.Precise measurement without passive.
4.High sensitivity.
5.easy to use.
Installation method:
1. Horizontal installation: for measuring the total radiation of the sun
2. Inclined installation: for measuring the oblique radiation amount
3. Downward-facing installation: used to measure the amount of counter-radiation
4. Scattered radiation: with the sun scattering shading device, can be used to measure the amount of scattered radiation
Remarks:
The shield is not needed in heavy rain. However, if it rains heavily for a long time or if there is hail, it is recommended to install a protective cover.
