Figure 57 Net Solar Radiation Sensor QMN101
Net Solar Radiation Sensor QMN101 is designed for routine
measurements of net radiation. Net radiation is the balance between
incoming and outgoing radiation in outdoor conditions. The sensor
measures solar and far infra-red radiation balance.
The sensor is based on a thermopile and it consists of two Teflon-
coated, weather-resistant black conical absorbers. The voltage output is
proportional to the net radiation. Contrary to common instruments,
QMN101 is virtually maintenance-free as it does not require fragile
plastic domes.
