(Global Irradiance) is the sum of direct solar irradiance and dif- fuse irradiance. LPPYRA-Lite is a Spectrally Flat Class C (Second Class) pyranometer in accordance with ISO 9060:2018 and with the criteria of the WMO “Guide to Meteorological In- struments and Methods of Observation’”.
In order to grant the thermopile a proper thermal insulation from the wind and reduce the sensitivity to thermal irradiance, LPPYRA-Lite is equipped with a glass dome. The dome protects the thermopile from the dust, which might change spectral sensitivity if...

4.1 LPPYRA-Lite CONNECTIONS The pyranometer LPPYRA-Lite 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 pyranometer output signal does not exceed 20 mV. In order to better exploit the py- ranometer features, the readout instrument should have 1 µV resolution.

5 MEASUREMENT Below are the ways to calculate the global irradiance. 5.1 LPPYRA-Lite Each pyranometer is distinguished by its own sensitivity (or calibration factor) S ex- pressed in µV/(Wm ) and shown in the label on the pyranometer (and in the optional calibration report).
You can wash it using water and standard papers for lens. If necessary, use pure ETHYL alcohol. After using alcohol, clean again the dome with water only. To exploit all the pyranometer features, it is highly recommended that the calibration be checked annually. LPPYRA-Lite V1.2...
