Amprobe SOLAR-100 Solar Power Meter

Downloads: datasheet manual

The solar power meter measures solar output, which calculates the overall energy, efficiency, and placement of solar systems.

Features

Measures the solar power and transmission up to 2000 W/m², 634 BTU / (ft²xh)
Power Mode – measurement of the power per unit area of incident solar radiation
Transmission Mode - calculates the solar power transmission percentage of the material for example how much solar power in % will be transmitted through the window
Convenient to read display with remote sensor technology
Selectable measurement units either W/m² or BTU / ( ft² x h)
Data Hold
MAX/MIN functions to identify locations with maximum or minimum power

Applications

Windows performance – calculation and verification of the heating or heat reduction caused by direct sunlight
Solar radiation measurements
Solar power research for location of the solar panels or solar water heater
Physics and optical laboratories
Meteorology
Agriculture

Display	3½ digits, 2000 readings
Range	1999 W/m², 634 BTU / (ft²xh)
Accuracy	Typically within ± 10W/m² [±3 BTU/ (ft²xh)] or ± 5% whichever is greater in sunlight Additional temperature included error ± 0.38 W/m² / ° C [±0.12 BTU/ (ft²xh)] / ° C] from 25 ° C
Angular Accuracy	Cosine corrected < 5% for angles < 60°
Drift	< ± 2% per year
Over-Input	Display "OL"
Sampling Time	Approximately 0.25 second
Operating Temperature and Humidity	41 to 104°F (5 to 40°C) below 80% RH
Battery	1 X 9 V Alkaline Battery (NE DA 1604 A, IE C 6LR61) included
Dimensions	5.2 x 2.4 x 1.5" (132 x 60 x 38 mm)
Weight	Approximately 0.3 lbs (150 g)
