Page 9: Introduction
Voltage or Current outputs are also included for devices that have high-level analogue inputs or current loop interfaces. The SUV5 is available in two versions. One has an analogue voltage output of 0 to 1 V, the other has an analogue current output of 4 to 20 mA. -
Page 10: Spectral Response Of Suv5 Radiometer
1.1.2 Spectral response of SUV5 radiometer The accuracy of the SUV5 radiometers is mainly determined by the properties of the band pass filter. The figure below shows the spectral response of a SUV5 on a logarithmic scale. A linear plot of the SUV5 relative spectral response attached to the calibration certificate. - Page 11 The SUV5 can be delivered with a waterproof plug pre-wired to a high quality signal cable, typically this is 10 m long but other lengths are available. The instruments can also be ordered without a cable or with a plug only, for the user to fit their own cable.

Radiometer fixing kit; 2 each of stainless steel M5 x 80 mm screw, nut, flat washer, nylon insulation ring 2.2 Tools required The tools required to fi an SUV5 radioometer to a support are a 4 mm (M5 socket head screw) Allen key and a 8 mm (M5 nut) wrench / spanner. -
Page 14: Location
2.4.2 Mounting The SUV5 radiometer is provided with two holes for 5 mm bolts. Two nylon insulation rings and two each of stainless steel bolts, washers and nuts are provided in the fixing kit. The radiometer should first be secured lightly with the bolts to a solid and stable mounting stand or platform as shown below. -

2.5 Electrical connections The SUV5 radiometers uses an 8-wire cable with pre-wired waterproof connector. Cables are available at di erent lenghts. The colour code of the wires and the connector pin numbers are shown below and on the instruction sheet. -
Page 16: Power Connection
2.5.1 Power connection The minimum power supply voltage for SUV5 radiometers is 5 VDC. However, for optimal performance it is advised to use 12 VDC, especially when long cables are used. 5-volt power can only be used in combination with a short cable, maximum 10 m. -
Page 17: Data Connection
The connection depends on the use of a RS-485 to USB converter. The converter must have galvanic isolation between the inputs and outputs to prevent possible damage to the SUV5 digital interface. This is particularly an issue with portable computers (laptops, etc.) in which the power supplies can generate large voltage spikes. -
Page 18: Analogue Voltage Output
The slaves may be a SUV5 radiometer or any other Modbus® devices. If a SUV5 radiometer is the last device on the network a line terminator (LT), consisting of a 120 Ω or 150 Ω resistor, must be connected between terminals A/A'/- and B/B'/+. Never place this line termination on the derivation cable. -

4. SmartExplorer software and Modbus communication ® The SmartExplorer software allows you to configure a smart sensor and to collect real-time data. SmartExplorer runs on a PC with Windows Vista, 7 or 8 and when installing downloads the .NET 4.5 frame work from the Microsoft Server. When using the software on site, make sure the software is already installed on your laptop. -
Page 23: Operation And Measurement
5.2 Key parts of the SUV5 radiometer The detector of the SUV5 is a photo diode with a white di usor on top. This is covered with a glass dome to protect it. The dome is made of a special glass type that transmits su cient UV light in the UV-A/UV-B range. The photo diode is read by the Smart interface as well as its temperature. -
Page 24: Housing
For ease of maintenance the bubble level of the SUV5 is visible from above without removing the snap-on white sun shield. The sun shield acts to protect all the external parts and to reduce solar heating of the housing. -
Page 25: Maintenance And Recalibration
6. Maintenance and recalibration SUV5 radiometers are simple to maintain and do not require any special tools or training. There are no service items requiring scheduled replacement. 6.1 Daily maintenance Depending upon the weather conditions dew, glazed frost or hoar frost can be precipitated on the top of the dome and can stay there for several hours in the morning. -

Page 29: Trouble Shooting
A: With longer cable lengths the impedance increases, however it does not a ect the radiometer sensitivity for the following reason. For the SUV5-V the impedance of the voltage measurement device is at least 1000 times more than the impedance of the radiometer plus cable. -

Page 41: Read Write Discrete Coils
If IO_AUTO_RANGE is set then the sensor is not calibrated and could produce more digits, than there are significant digits. Coil 22 IO_FASTRESPONSE Setting this coil enables the fast response filter. This filter increases the step response of the sensor. The default value for SUV5 radiometers is OFF. -
Page 42: Requesting Serial Number
Coil 23 IO_TRACKING_FILTER Setting to this coil enables the tracking filter. The tracking filter reduces the noise of the signal. However, when the filter is on, the step response on a sudden signal change is decreased. The smart sensor uses variable filter constants to minimize the e ect on the step response. -

The program will read the registers: ‘operational mode, status flags, scale factor, and sensor data’ from Modbus® device with address 2 into registers uOperationMode, uStatusFlags, iScaleFactor and iSensorData. -
Page 45: Radiometer Physical Properties
For the SUV5 radiometers the physical sensitivities are converted to a digital and analogue output that is identical for all sensors. The SUV5-V versions all have an analogue output of 0 to 1 Volt for -100 to 400 W/m². The SUV5-A outputs are 4 to 20 mA for 0 to 400 W/m². -
Page 46: Operating Temperature
The maximum irradiance is defined as the total irradiance level beyond which the output is no longer linear and out of specifications. The analogue output for the SUV5 is set to 400 W/m², which is su cient under normal atmospheric conditions. - Page 48 Our customer support remains at your disposal for any maintenance or repair, calibration, supplies and spares.
