Overview
The SRA200 is an industrial-grade Class A albedometer designed for high-accuracy measurement of global solar radiation, reflected solar radiation, and solar albedo. Built using two SR200-D1 Class A pyranometers and a dedicated mounting assembly, this all-digital, sensor system delivers exceptional measurement reliability and accuracy for photovoltaic (PV) performance monitoring, bifacial PV applications, and meteorological observations in environments where dew and frost mitigation is not required.

Key features
• Class A performance: fully compliant with ISO 9060:2018 Class A classification for high-accuracy solar radiation and albedo measurements.
• Measures global solar radiation, reflected solar radiation, and solar albedo (solar reflectance).
• Consists of two SR200-D1 Class A pyranometers, one facing upward and one facing downward.
• Modular design facilitates maintenance, calibration, and sensor replacement.
• Industrial surge protection: integrated industrial-grade surge protection with optional SPD01 upgrade for enhanced immunity up to 4 kV.
• Lowest total cost of ownership: supported by a worldwide calibration and service network to minimize downtime and maintenance costs.

Applications
• Solar albedo monitoring for bifacial photovoltaic (PV) performance monitoring systems.
• Utility-scale solar power plants requiring high-accuracy albedo measurements.
• Solar resource assessment and meteorological monitoring networks.
• For environments where dew and frost mitigation is not critical
