DESCRIPTION
The Megger PVM210 provides the solar / photovoltaic
engineer a compact, pocket size instrument that is easy to
use.
Single handed operation is possible because the solar
detector and meter being housed in one neat unit. This
feature is ideal when using the instrument on a sloping roof
or at the top of a ladder.
With the easy to read display and measurement hold feature
the meter gives fast, accurate readings of solar power for
initially choosing optimum position for the photovoltaic
panel. In addition the meter can provide the vital measurement
for the calculation of short circuit current in conjunction with
a suitable ammeter to verify the stated short circuit current
provided by the manufacturer of the panel.
In addition to W/m² measurements, a selectable BTU (British
Thermal Unit) measurement range is also featured.
To prolong battery life the PVM210 has an auto power off.
On the rear of the meter is a universal camera thread that
allows mounting for precise readings if required. A protective
pouch is included with each instrument.
