1ST CLASS PYRANOMETER
5600-0601
For routine global solar radiation measurement research on a plane/level surface

APPLICATIONS

  • Crop management
  • Irrigation control
  • Global radiation
  • Sky radiation
  • Reflected solar radiation
Fully compliant with all ISO-9060 specification criteria & supplied standard with a WRR (World Radiometric Reference) traceable calibration certificate, the 5600-0601 is a First Class Pyranometer as defined by the World Meteorological Organization. It is suitable for the measurement of solar irradiance on a plane surface (W/m2). The pyranometer incorporates a 64-thermo-couple sensor housed under two concentric fitting Schott K5 glass domes. A white screen prevents the body of the pyranometer from heating up. It is supplied with an integrated built in bubble level and feet for accurate leveling. A drying cartridge keeps the interior free from humidity.

For 8200 Set J14 to -DIFFIN and J15 to +DIFFIN; wire sensor to Analog 6 and 7. Configure "Pressor Sensor for slope of 1/sensitivity".

Helpful Hints

Pyranometers have viewing angles horizon to horizon. The site selected for exposing a pyranometer should be free from any obstruction above the plane of the pyranometer. The pyranometer should not be near light colored walls or other objects likely to refl ect sunlight on to it. If the pyranometer is to be mounted on an arm off of a tower, then in the northern hemisphere the pyranometer should be on the south side of the tower. In the southern hemisphere it should be mounted on the north side.
