  • Page 4: Introduction

    The output voltage of the sensor is related to the received radiation. SL 100 instrument is mainly an efficient and easy-to-use instrument: with small size, it has a large display with a resolution of 64*128 pixels involving a very high electronic technology.
  • Page 5: Operating Principle

    Keyboard presentation When being switched on, “measurement screen” is displayed. From this screen, the operator has access to three others screens by pressing on keyboard; return to measurement screen is obtained by activating Function keys Directly associated to text displayed shown above on display, they allow measurement setting.
  • Page 6: Brightness

    Accessible from principal measurement screen by successive pushes on key, those different screens allow instrument setting. They also inform users. Brightness To optimize display reading, the operator can : 1. Adjust brightness by pressing function keys. 2. Backlight LCD display for a better reading in a dark place. “No”...
  • Page 7: Radiation Exposure Or Global Irradiation

    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 start screen, the operator have access to energy measurement over a period controlled by timer and clock, he proceeds as follows: Access to exposure measurement and in sunshine control Irr.

    New measurement After recording of results in his file, the operator can launch a new measurement. Here are the actions : 1. 1 x A message alerts the operator of a reset of memory backup. 2. 1 x Memory is erasing , visualized by the progress Memory is erased, the operator can launch a new measurement.

    Servicing The SL 100 instrument conception allows a reduce 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 SL100. Return to the manufacturer each year will provide necessary metrological traceability.
