Irradiance
Once switched on, the instrument measures and displays twice a second the instantaneous value of solar power (or irradiance) in W/m2. This value gives information to users about sunshine local conditions.
Radiation exposure or global irradiation
The instrument measures twice a second the irradiance and displays it, while
memorizing minimum and maximum values. From these data, it calculates and
displays the measurement duration: average value, Radiation exposure or global
irradiation.
From the start screen, the operator has access to energy measurement over a period controlled by a timer and clock, he proceeds as follows:
- Access to exposure measurement and in sunshine control Irr. Measurement is not launched yet.
- Launch of the energy accumulation in Wh/m² is visualized by the “On” pictogram which flashes. The chronometer starts, it indicates seconds-minutes- hours-day (max: 03D00H00M00S). First average values and accumulated energy values appear.
- Switching to the second screen to recall max and min.
- Stop of measurement, ‘’Reset’’ is displayed.
Power source
When the instrument is equipped with alkaline batteries, it can operate for 72 hours minimum. A symbol informs the user about the electric power remaining. If the battery is low, less than 1 bar on the pictogram, the instrument stops measuring, saves the current measurement, and switches off.
Maintenance
The SL 200 instrument conception allows reduced maintenance which consists in changing batteries and cleaning the sensor with a cloth slightly dampened.
Regular checking
Like most measuring instruments, it is strongly recommended to regularly control and calibrate SL 200. Return to the manufacturer each year will provide necessary metrological traceability.
