Low-Cost Irradiance Sensor (3S-IS-LR)-1

Low-Cost Irradiance Sensor Low-Cost Irradiance Sensor The Low-Cost Irradiance Sensor is part of the SEVEN meteorological sensor range, which includes professional and intelligent measuring sensors with a digital interface for environmental and industrial applications such as residential and rooftop or small-scale PV plants. The Low-Cost Irradiance Sensor, called PV Pyranometer with photovoltaic reference cell, provides irradiance data in W/m2 to the user to calculate the performance ratio of the PV plants. The Low-Cost Irradiance Sensor is specially designed for residential and rooftop applications or small-scale PV applications. Advanced features and high accuracy for meteorological sensors are not required for these applications. The cost of the sensor should be proportional to the scale of the PV system. SEVEN achieved that by Low-Cost Irradiance Sensor. The measured values are transmitted to dataloggers and receiving units via the serial RS485 interface with MODBUS RTU protocol. • Economical Solution • Similar Structure with PV modules • Fast & Simple to Install • Free Software Update • SunSpec Compliant • SEVEN Remote Setup Service • SEVEN Customer Support ‘Since this product contains plastic parts, color changes may occur when exposed to direct sunlight.
