Direct solar radiation sensor T055 TPIR

diffuseModbusanalog output

TPIR measures the global solar radiation, calculated as sum of the direct sun radiation, and the radiation diffused by the sky and scattered clouds. Thanks to its standards of accuracy the sensor is a very suitable device for various applications in the field of meteorology. TPIR is equipped with a thermopile element, specifically designed and developed for SIAP + MICROS. The sensing element generates a tension proportional to the captured radiation, which is acquired by a signal conditioning electronics that normalizes the output in a standard tension, current, Modbus or SDI-12 signal. Performance features are significantly improved thanks to a double dome made of special optical glass (Schott K5), which allows a wide range of solar radiation frequency measurement (0.3 ÷ 3 μm). The production process is fulfilled by a calibration in a climatic chamber with an artificial light source, in order to obtain high accuracy even when the temperature varies. The sensor is supplied with power and signal cable (4m).
