with temperature sensor, for photovoltaic systems, for meteorological data
Description
Highlights:
RC22 is the first PV reference cell specifically optimized for both bifacial and monofacial PV systems.
The ultra-compact design allows easy mounting anywhere, including the rear side of bifacial arrays.
Wide dynamic range, ultra-low zero offset, and dual calibration at 1000 W/m² (STC) and 135 W/m² (BSTC) provide accurate measurements across irradiances typical of bifacial systems.
The RC22’s glass-to-edge surface design reduces soiling compared with conventional reference cells.
Integrated features support multiple mounting configurations for weather and meteorological stations.
Communicates via Modbus RTU over RS485.
Outputs:
Irradiance
Cell short-circuit current
Cell temperature
Applications:
High-accuracy solar irradiance measurement for monofacial and bifacial PV systems
Irradiance monitoring to support operations and maintenance (performance ratio)
Characterization of rear-side irradiance uniformity in bifacial arrays
Solar resource assessment and prospecting at pre-construction sites
