050420 Insolation and temperature measuring device

Insolation and temperature measuring device for photovoltaic systems and solar thermal systems (solar thermal energy)

- Solar insolation measurement (W/m2) for photovoltaic systems in accordance with VDE 0126-23 and solar thermal systems - Two-channel temperature sensor for photovoltaic module temperature and ambient temperature - Integrated compass for roof alignment and inclination angle measurement - Data logger for 5000 display indications - Real-time clock with date/time stamp - USB interface with download software

Ideal for planning, commissioning and repeat testing of grid-connected photovoltaic systems in accordance with VDE 0126-23 and testing solar thermal systems. Suitable for solar technicians (initial commissioning, repeat testing, troubleshooting, efficiency monitoring), photovoltaics experts as well as servicing and maintenance teams.

Measuring functions: - Solar insolation measurement in W/m2 or BTU/h/ft2 - Two-channel temperature sensor for measuring the module and ambient temperature - Digital compass for determining the cardinal direction - Inclination angle measurement for determining the roof/module inclination

Features: - Universal four-in-one measuring device for all inspection and maintenance work as well as for efficiency monitoring of photovoltaic systems and solar thermal systems - Calibrated photovoltaic reference cell for the precise measurement of solar insolation (irradiance) - Accurate and reproducible temperature measurement via precision sensors - Data logger function with adjustable sampling rate (1 minute to 60 minutes) to store 5000 data records, consisting of information such as the level of irradiance, the module/ambient temperature and date/time stamp - Integrated real-time clock - USB interface and software download for creating test reports in MS Excel® - HOLD function to save a display - Automatic shut-off after two minutes - Power-saving standby mode in data logger mode - Handy and robust housing design
