Made with two MS-40 Pyranometers, as well as a special albedo kit featuring a glare screen, this innovative unite measures albedo in routine applications.
It is ideally used in solar power projects with bi-facial PV modules, as well as in meteorological applications.
Our MS-40 is an excellent example of an ISO 9060:2018 Class C pyranometer, based on the EKO universal sensor platform. It is also the most cost-effective irradiance sensor available, to measure solar irradiance across the full solar spectrum – use it for agro-meteorological networks or small-scale PV sites where solar radiation must be taken seriously.
Manufactured in a consistent way and followed by strict quality inspections and performance evaluations, this sensor has a 5-year warranty and 2-year recommend re-calibration interval period. It is also no longer necessary to change the desiccant.
