Class A pyranometer CMP10x

4-20 mAISO 9060spectrally flat

Product overview
The CMP10x is an analog pyranometer meeting ISO 9060:2018 and IEC 61724-1:2021 standards. Designed for high-accuracy solar irradiance measurement in harsh and long-term monitoring environments, it combines a thermopile sensor with a built-in thermistor for body temperature monitoring and compensation. The CMP10x offers low instrument drift, a maintenance-free desiccant with >10 year lifetime, a robust 4-pin connector and a recommended 5-year calibration interval. The instrument is supplied with a 5-year warranty and proven field lifetimes exceeding 10 years.
