Recommended for financeable resource assessment campaigns, the Hukseflux LP02 is a solar radiation sensor that is compliant with second class criteria from the ISO 9060 standard.
#6889
This thermopile-based sensor measures global horizontal irradiance and has a spectrally flat response across the full solar spectrum. The LP02 generates a small voltage signal that is proportional to the solar radiation flux, expressed in W/m2.
The LP02 is compatible with the SymphoniePLUS®3 Data Logger and SymphoniePRO® Data Logger when equipped with a Symphonie® SCM Card (SCM #6646, used with SymphoniePLUS3 or older) or Pro Signal Conditioning Module (P-SCM #9128, used with SymphoniePRO).
This kit includes a calibration certificate and 5 m (16.4') cable.
