LP02

The LP02 pyranometer measures solar radiation in the full solar spectrum range. It is an ISO second-class pyranometer whose millivolt signal is measured directly by a Campbell Scientific data logger. The LP02 has a 16-ft cable, and the LP02-L cable length is user-specified. Otherwise they are the same sensor.

Solar radiation is measured with a high quality blackened thermopile protected by a dome. The blackened thermopile provides a flat spectral response for the full solar spectrum range, which allows the LP02 to be used under plant canopies or lamps, when the sky is cloudy, and for reflected radiation measurements.
