The MS - 402 pyranometer is a unique ISO first class pyranometer and best in its category. As the only first class sensor available on the market it has a built in electronic passive temperature compensating to linearize the detector temperature coefficient and make it accurate under all temperature conditions.

This pyranometer is a development of the well-known Eppley 10- and 50-junction 180° pyrheliometer originally introduced by Kimball and Hobbs in 1923.

The MS - 802 secondary standard pyranometer is the ultimate reference sensor to measure global solar irradiance with the highest precision. It`s robust brass mechanical construction makes it a durable sensor suitable to be used in harsh environments. The MS - 802 is used as standard for PV research and climatology studies around the world.

Within the MS-Series the MS - 602 pyranometer is the smallest true thermopile pyranometer. It is the most economic measurment solution for global solar radiation measurments capturing the full solar spectrum. MS - 602 meets the ISO second class performance criteria. However, its outstanding temperature dependency characteristics can only be found on higher class pyranometers. This sensor can be found in many meteorological networks and professional small scale PV sites where solar radiation is takes seriously.

The MK-III computer interface can use 6 Ni-Cad batteries to keep running during a power outage. While running from the backup batteries the computer interface will continue to receive and log information. When power returns the batteries will be recharged automatically by the computer interface. These batteries will keep the computer interface running for approximately 8 hours.

The PVMet 75 is a compact and lightweight solar monitoring station featuring a Global or Plane-of-Array Irradiance Sensor, one or two Back-of-Panel Temperature Sensor(s), and an Ambient Air Temperature Sensor. Simple to install on any solar project, the PVMet 75 connects to Modbus RTU Communication with an ethernet TCP option available. Ships fully assembled and factory calibrated.

The PVMet 100 includes all the same sensor options as the PVMet 75 but offers an adjustable EKO ML-01E Irradiance Sensor that can be set to provide Global or Plane-of-Array Irradiance. The adjustable option provides installers the flexibility to match the sensor to the PV panel angle. Compact and simple to install on any solar project, the PVMet 100 connects to Modbus RTU Communication with an ethernet TCP option available. Ships fully assembled and factory calibrated.

The PVMet 200 is our best-selling commercial model featuring the highest caliber PV and wind sensors. The PVMet 200 includes an option for both a Global and Plane-of-Array Irradiance Sensor, one or two Back-of-Panel Temperature Sensor(s), an Ambient Air Temperature Sensor, and a Wind Speed and Direction Sensor. Simple to install on any solar project, the PVMet 200 connects to Modbus RTU Communication with an ethernet TCP option available. Ships fully assembled and factory calibrated.
