Net Pyrradiometer


CN1-R Net Pyrradiometer

The CN1-R Net Pyrradiometer measures the net total radiation flux (solar, terrestrial, and atmospheric) downward and upward through a horizontal surface. It is suitable for solar energy studies in agriculture and meteorology.

Response Time 15s (1/e); 45s (95%)
Non-stability (per year) + 2%, - 1.0%
Non-linearity ± 1%
Cosine response (at 80° inclination) - 4%
Upwards and downwards sensitivity variation < 3%
Shortwave and longwave sensitivity variation < 5%
Temperature coefficient - 0.05% / °C

 

MATCHED SHORTWAVE AND LONGWAVE SENSITIVITY

  • Weatherproof and durable.
  • Matched upward and downward response.
  • Fully sealed construction for low-maintenance.
  • Protective polythene domes have minimal selective absorbency.
