The CMP6 pyranometer is intended for routine global solar radiation measurement research on a plane/ level surface.

Fully compliant with ISO-9060 specication for a First Class pyranometer, the CMP6 features a sixty-four thermocouple junction (series connected) sensing element.

The sensing element is coated with a highly stable carbon based non organic coating, which delivers excellent spectral absorption and long-term stability characteristics.

CMP6 has improved performance due to the increased thermal mass and the double glass dome construction. It is ideal for good quality measurements in meteorological networks.

Technical data

General

Spectral range 285 to 2800 nm Sensitivity 5 to 20 µV/W/m² Response time 18 s Zero offset A ± 15 W/m² Zero offset B ± 4 W/m² Directional error (up to 80 ° with 1000 W/m² beam) < 20 W/m² Temperature dependence of sensitivity (-10 ºC to +40 ºC) ± 4 % Operating temperature range -40 °C to +80 °C Maximum solar irradiance 2000 W/m² Field of view 180 °

The integral bubble level is raised to the top of the housing and can be viewed without removing the redesigned snap-on sun shield, which also covers the connector. The connector with gold-plated contacts allows for easy exchange and recalibration.

The screw-in drying cartridge is easy to remove and the replacement desiccant is supplied in convenient rell packets.
