Page 3: Introduction
INTRODUCTION LPPYRA02 pyranometer measures the irradiance on a flat surface (W/m ). The measured irradiance (Global Irradiance) is the sum of direct solar irradiance and diffuse irradiance. LPPYRA02 is a Spectrally Flat Class B (First Class pyranometer in accordance with ISO 9060:2018 and with the criteria of the WMO “Guide to Meteorological Instruments... -
Page 4: Working Principle
2 WORKING PRINCIPLE LPPYRA02 pyranometer is based on a thermopile sensor. The thermopile sensitive sur- face is coated with a black matt paint, which allows the pyranometer not to be selec- tive at different wavelengths. The pyranometer spectral range is determined by the transmission of the two glass domes type K5. -

Page 9: Electrical Connections
4.1 LPPYRA02 CONNECTIONS The pyranometer LPPYRA02 is passive and does not require power supply. It is to be connected either to a millivoltmeter or to a data acquisition system. Typically, the py- ranometer output signal does not exceed 20 mV. In order to better exploit the pyra- nometer features, the readout instrument should have 1 µV resolution. -
