INTRODUCTION

All objects with a temperature above absolute zero emit electromagnetic radiation. The wavelengths and intensity of radiation emitted are related to the temperature of the object. The atmosphere and terrestrial surfaces (e.g., soil, plant canopies, water, snow) emit radiation in the mid-infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum (approximately 4-50 µm).
Pyrometers are sensors that measure the net longwave radiation difference between the detector surface and surface the detector is directed towards (typically, atmosphere or ground surface). Longwave radiation emitted by the surface of interest can be calculated with the additional measurement of detector temperature, typically accomplished via an internal thermistor or PRT.
Typical applications of pyrometers include measurement of incoming longwave radiation from the sky and outgoing longwave radiation from terrestrial surfaces in atmospheric and energy balance studies. Incoming longwave radiation measurements from pyrometers are an important input to frost prediction models. Pyrometers are also integrated into net radiometers for the measurement of net radiation at the land surface.
Apogee Instruments SL-510 and SL-610 pyrometers consist of a thermopile detector, silicon filter with a diamond-like carbon coating (for weatherproofing), precision thermistor (for detector temperature measurement), heater, and signal processing circuitry mounted in an anodized aluminum housing, and a cable to connect the sensor to a measurement device. Sensors are potted solid with no internal air space and are designed for continuous measurement of longwave radiation from the sky and terrestrial surfaces in outdoor environments. SL510 and SL-610 pyrometers output an analog voltage that is directly proportional to the longwave radiation balance of the target (surface the detector is directed towards) and detector; the detector is sensitive to the radiation incident on a planar surface (does not have to be horizontal), where the radiation emanates from all angles of a hemisphere. Longwave radiation incident on the detector is calculated from the radiation balance measurement and detector temperature measurement.

SENSOR MODELS

Apogee SL-510 and SL-610 pyrometers covered in this manual are analog versions that provide a voltage output. Apogee offers the SL-510 for atmospheric measurements (upward-looking sensor, measures incoming longwave radiation) and SL-610 for terrestrial surface measurements (downward-looking sensor, measures outgoing longwave radiation).

A sensor’s model number and serial number are located on a label near the pigtail leads on the sensor cable. If you need the manufacturing date of your sensor, please contact Apogee Instruments with the serial number of your sensor.

Calibration Traceability

Apogee SL-510 and SL-610 pyrometers are calibrated against the mean of two Apogee model SL-510 or SL-610 transfer standard pyrometers inside a custom blackbody cone held at multiple fixed temperatures over a range of radiometer (detector and sensor body) temperatures. The temperature of the blackbody cone is measured with replicate precision thermistors thermally bonded to the cone surface. The transfer standard pyrometers are calibrated against the mean of at least two reference upward-looking pyrometers under all-sky conditions in Logan, Utah. Each of the two reference pyrometers is recalibrated on an alternating year schedule (one instrument per year) at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) in Golden, Colorado. NREL reference standards are calibrated to the World Infrared Standard Group (WISG) in Davos, Switzerland.

DEPLOYMENT AND INSTALLATION

Mount the sensor to a solid surface with the nylon mounting screw provided included a thermally-insulated base that needs to be mounted between the sensor and the surface it is being mounted to. To accurately measure atmospheric longwave radiation incident on a horizontal surface, the sensor should be approximately level (longwave radiation from the atmosphere is diffuse, so a perfect level of the sensor is not required). An Apogee Instruments model AL-100 leveling plate is recommended for this purpose. To facilitate mounting on a cross arm, an Apogee Instruments model AM-110 mounting brackets is recommended.

Sensors must be carefully mounted in order to view the desired target surface (sky or ground) and avoid including unwanted surfaces/objects in the field of view, thereby averaging unwanted radiation with the target radiation.
The sensor should be mounted such that obstructions (e.g., weather station tripod/tower or other instrumentation) do not obstruct the sensor field of view. Once mounted, the green cap should be removed from the sensor. The green cap can be used as a protective covering for the sensor when it is not in use.

CABLE CONNECTORS

Apogee started offering in-line cable connectors on some bare-lead sensors in March 2018 to simplify the process of removing sensors from weather stations for calibration (the entire cable does not have to be removed from the station and shipped with the sensor).

The ruggedized M8 connectors are rated IP68, made of corrosion-resistant marine-grade stainless steel, and designed for extended use in harsh environmental conditions.

Instructions

Pins and Wiring Colors: All Apogee connectors have six pins, but not all pins are used for every sensor. There may also be unused wire colors inside the cable. To simplify the datalogger connection, we remove the unused pigtail lead colors at the datalogger end of the cable.

If a replacement cable is ever needed, please contact Apogee directly to ensure ordering the proper pigtail configuration.
Alignment: When reconnecting the sensor, arrows on the connector jacket and an aligning notch ensure proper orientation.

Disconnection for extended periods: When disconnecting the sensor for an extended period of time from a station, protect the remaining half of the connector still on the station from water and dirt with electrical tape or another method.

Tightening: Connectors are designed to be firmly finger-tightened only. There is an O-ring inside the connector that can be overly compressed if a wrench is used. Pay attention to thread alignment to avoid cross-threading. When fully tightened, 1-2 threads may still be visible.

 OPERATION AND MEASUREMENT

Apogee SL-510 and SL-610 pyrometers output two signals: a voltage from the thermopile radiation detector (proportional to the radiation balance between target and detector) and a voltage from the thermistor (proportional to the magnitude of the excitation voltage and resistance of thermistor). The voltage output from the thermopile is an electrically-isolated bipolar (polarity is dependent on the temperature difference between sensor and target) signal, typically between -20 and 20 millivolts, and requires a high-resolution differential measurement.
The voltage output from the thermistor can be measured with a single-ended measurement. In order to maximize measurement resolution and signal-to-noise ratio, the input range of the measurement device should closely match the output range of the pyrometer. DO NOT connect the thermopile (white and black wires) to a power source. The detector is self-powered and applying voltage will damage it. Input voltage is required to measure the resistance of the thermistor and to power the heater. Only the red and yellow wires should be connected to a power source.
VERY IMPORTANT: Apogee changed all wiring colors of our bare-lead sensors in March 2018 in conjunction with the release of inline cable connectors on some sensors. To ensure proper connection to your data device, please note your serial number or if your sensor has a stainless-steel connector 30 cm from the sensor head then use the appropriate wiring configuration below.
Wiring for SL-510 Serial Number 1074 and above (or with cable connector) and SL-610 Serial Number 1034 and above (or with cable connector)

Apogee SL-510 and SL-610 pyrometers are calibrated in a temperature-controlled chamber that houses a custom-built blackbody cone (target) for the radiation source. During calibration, pyrometers (detectors) are held in a fixture at the opening of the blackbody cone but are thermally insulated from the cone. Detector and target temperature are controlled independently. At each calibration set point, detectors are held at a constant temperature while the blackbody cone is controlled at temperatures below (approximately 20 C for the first set point and approximately 6 C for the second set point, but dependent on detector temperature) and above (approximately 6 C, but dependent on detector temperature) detector temperature. The range of detector temperatures is -25 C to 50 C (set points at 15 C increments). Data are collected at each detector temperature setpoint after detectors and targets reach constant temperatures.
All SL-510 and SL-610 pyrometers have sensor-specific calibration coefficients determined during the custom calibration process. Unique coefficients for each sensor are provided on a coefficient certificate (example shown below).

Calibration overview data and specific calibration coefficients are listed in the upper section of the calibration sheet, followed by the calibration procedure. Calibration traceability information and calibration dates are in the lower section of the sheet.

Temperature Measurement with Internal Thermistor
Measurement devices (e.g., datalogger, controller) do not measure resistance directly but determine resistance from a half-bridge measurement, where an excitation voltage is an input across the bridge resistor and an output voltage is measured across the thermistor.

Thermistor wiring for SL-510 with Serial Numbers range 0-1073 and SL-610 with Serial number range 0-1033

An excitation voltage of 2.5 V DC is recommended to minimize self-heating and current drain, while still maintaining adequate measurement sensitivity (mV output from thermistor per C). However, other excitation voltages can be used. Decreasing the excitation voltage will decrease self-heating and current drain but will also decrease thermistor measurement sensitivity. Increasing the excitation voltage will increase thermistor measurement sensitivity but will also increase self-heating and current drain.

The internal thermistor provides a temperature reference for the calculation of the target temperature. Resistance of the thermistor changes with temperature. The thermistor resistance (RT, in Ω) is measured with a half- bridge measurement, requiring an excitation voltage input (VEX) and a measurement of output voltage (VOUT):

where 24900 is the resistance of the bridge resistor in Ω. In the generic equation 1b, VR is the direct output from the half-bridge measurement, where VR is equal to the ratio of VOUT to VEX (i.e. VOUT = VR * VEX). From thermistor resistance (RT), temperature (TK, in Kelvin) is calculated with the Steinhart-Hart equation and thermistor specific coefficients (30 kOhm @ 25 C):

For temperatures less than zero Celsius: A = 9.32960 x 10 -4 , B = 2.21424 x 10 -4 , and C = 1.26329 x 10 -7
For temperatures greater than zero Celsius: A = 9.32794 x 10 -4 , B = 2.21451 x 10 -4 , and   = 1.26233 x 10-7

Longwave Radiation Measurement

The detector output from SL-510 and SL-610 pyrometers follows the fundamental physics of the Stefan-Boltzmann Law, where radiation transfer is proportional to the fourth power of absolute temperature. The mV signal from the detector is linearly proportional to the longwave radiation balance between the target and detector, analogous to longwave radiation emission being linearly proportional to the fourth power of temperature in the Stefan-Boltzmann Law. A modified form of the Stefan-Boltzmann equation is used to calibrate sensors, and subsequently, calculate longwave irradiance from target:

LW Incoming Longwave, in W m-2
ki Calibration coefficient 1 (see cal. sheet)
K2 Calibration coefficient 2 (see cal. sheet)
SD The signal from a detector, mV (Apprx. -23.5 to 23.5 mV)
a Stefan-Boltzmann constant, 5.6704 x 10-8W m-2 K-4
TD

Detector temperature, in K

where LW; is longwave radiation emitted from target [W m-2], SD is the millivolt signal from the detector, To is the temperature measured with a thermistor thermally bonded to the detector [K], a is Stefan-Boltzmann constant = 5.6704 x 10 W m-2 K-4, and ki and k2 are custom calibration coefficients. During the calibration process, ki and k2 are determined by minimizing the difference between measurements of LW from each sensor and reference LW measured with transfer standard pyrometers. The derived ki and k2 coefficients are the custom calibration coefficients listed on the calibration certificate (shown above) that come with each SL-510 and SL-610 pyrometer.
Operation of Heater
Apogee SL-510 and SL-610 pyrometers have an internal heater to allow for sensor heating during precipitation events or under conditions of dew and frost deposition. The heater is designed to keep the water (liquid and frozen) of the silicon filter and does not need to be powered in order to make measurements of longwave radiation. However, if the filter has water on the surface, errors can result. Continuously powering the heater under conditions that do not require heating will not damage the sensor or influence measurements.

MAINTENANCE AND RECALIBRATION

Blocking of the optical path between the target and detector, often due to moisture or debris on the silicon filter, is a common cause of inaccurate measurements. SL-510 pyrometers have a domed  housing for improved self- cleaning from rainfall, but the flat filter surface of SL-510 and SL-610 pyrometers can become partially blocked in three ways:

  1. Dew or frost formation on the silicon filter (can be minimized by powering heater).
  2. Salt deposit accumulation on the filter, due to evaporating irrigation water or sea spray. This leaves a thin white film on the filter surface. Salt deposits can be removed with a dilute acid (e.g., vinegar). Salt deposits cannot be removed with solvents such as alcohol or acetone.
  3. Dust and dirt deposition on the window (usually a larger problem in windy environments). Dust and dirt are best removed with deionized water, rubbing alcohol, or in extreme cases, acetone.

Clean filter with a cotton swab dipped in the appropriate solvent. Never use abrasive material on the silicon filter. Use only gentle pressure when cleaning the filter with a cotton swab, to avoid scratching the outer surface.
The solvent should be allowed to do the cleaning, not mechanical force.
It is recommended that pyrometers be recalibrated every two years. See the Apogee webpage for details regarding the return of sensors for recalibration
(http://www.apogeeinstruments.com/tech-support-recalibrationrepairs/).

TROUBLESHOOTING AND CUSTOMER SUPPORT

Independent Verification of Functionality
The radiation detector in Apogee SL-510 and SL-610 pyrometers is a self- powered device that outputs a voltage signal proportional to the radiation balance between the detector and target surface. A quick and easy check of detector functionality can be accomplished using a voltmeter with microvolt (µV) resolution. Connect the positive lead of the voltmeter to the white wire from the sensor and the negative lead (or common) to the black wire from the sensor. Direct the sensor toward a surface with a temperature significantly different than the detector. The voltage signal will be negative if the surface is colder than the detector and positive if the surface is warmer than the detector. Placing a piece of tinfoil in front of the sensor should force the sensor voltage signal to zero. The thermistor inside SL-510 and SL-610 pyrometers yield a resistance proportional to temperature. A quick and easy check of thermistor functionality can be accomplished with an ohmmeter. Connect the lead wires of the ohmmeter to the blue and green wires from the sensor. The resistance should read 30 kΩ at 25 C. If the sensor temperature is less than 25 C, the resistance will be higher. If the sensor temperature is greater than 25 C, the resistance will be lower. Connect the lead wires of the ohmmeter to the red and green wires from the sensor. The resistance should read 24.9 kΩ and should not vary. Connect the lead wires of the ohmmeter to the red and blue wires from the sensor. The resistance should be the sum of the resistances measured across the blue and green wires, and red and green wires (e.g., 30 kΩ plus 24.9 kΩ at 25 C).
Compatible Measurement Devices (Dataloggers/Controllers/Meters)
Apogee SL-510 and SL-610 pyrometers have sensitivities in the microvolt range, approximately 0.11 mV per W m -2 difference between target and detector. Thus, a compatible measurement device  e.g., datalogger or controller) should have a resolution of at least 0.11 mV to produce a longwave radiation resolution of 1 W m -2 .
Measurement of detector temperature from the internal thermistor requires an input excitation voltage, where 2500 mV is recommended. A compatible measurement device should have the capability to supply the necessary voltage.
An example datalogger program for Campbell Scientific dataloggers can be found on the Apogee webpage at
http://www.apogeeinstruments.com/content/Thermopile-Pyrgeometer- Unamplified.CR1.
Modifying Cable Length
When the sensor is connected to a measurement device with high input impedance, sensor output signals are not changed by shortening the cable or splicing on an additional cable in the field. Tests have shown that if the input impedance of the measurement device is 10 MΩ or higher, there is negligible effect on the radiometer calibration, even after adding up to 50 m of cable. Apogee SL-510 and SL-610 pyrometers use shielded, twisted pair cable, which minimizes electromagnetic interference. This is particularly important for long lead lengths in electromagnetically noisy environments. See Apogee webpage for details on how to extend sensor cable length (http://www.apogeeinstruments.com/how-to-make-a-weatherproof-cable-splice/).
Signal Interference
Due to the small voltage signals from the detector, care should be taken to provide appropriate grounding for the sensor and cable shield wire, in order to minimize the influence of electromagnetic interference (EMI). In instances where SL-510 and SL-610 series pyrometers are being used in close proximity to communications (near an antenna or antenna wiring), it may be necessary to alternate the data recording and data transmitting functions (i.e., measurements should not be made when data are being transmitted wirelessly). If EMI is suspected, place a tinfoil cap over the front of the sensor and monitor the signal voltage from the detector. The signal voltage should remain stable at (or very near) zero.
