Fluke IRR1-SOL
Irradiance Meter
Introduction
The Fluke IRR1-SOL Irradiance Meter (the Meter) provides digital read-outs
related to photovoltaic (PV) panels. Measures and reads:
2
•
Solar irradiation (W/m
) on the surface of a photovoltaic (PV) panel
•
Temperature (°F or °C) on the surface of a photovoltaic (PV) panel
•
Inclination (degrees) of a photovoltaic (PV) panel
•
Cardinal degrees with the compass function
The read-outs provided by the Meter help determine optimum positioning of the
photovoltaic (PV) panel for best performance.

The internal, embedded conductive sensor in the back of the Meter will automatically take the temperature reading. 1.800.561.8187 information@itm.com www.
- Page 6 Temperature can also be taken through the external temperature probe. Connecting the External Temperature Probe Attach the temperature probe to the top of the Meter. The screen automatically shows the icon once connected. The icon indicates that the temperature is now being read by the external probe. Place the Meter on or beside the PV panel and connect the suction cup to the underside of the PV panel.
- Page 7 Measuring Inclination and Cardinal Direction Place the Meter directly onto the PV panel to get accurate tilt. For surfaces of rooftops with inclinations different than 0°, push the ZERO button for 2 seconds to reset the angle and measure the true inclination of a solar panel.
