To measure solar radiation and solar energy. Diffuser element and housing are carefully designed for accurate cosine response. Silicon photo diode provides good match to solar spectrum. Two-piece housing minimizes radiation heating, allows convection cooling of the sensor, and prevents the trapping of water or dust. To mount next to a rain collector, add our Sensor Mounting Shelf (not included).Includes 4' (1.2 m) cable. (When sold pre-installed on a Vantage Pro2 Plus, includes 3' (0.9 m) cable.) Use Standard 4-Conductor Extension Cable. Maximum cable length is 125' (38 m) from sensor to integrated sensor suite.
