Pyranometers

Apogee now offers two types of pyranometers, our original silicon-cell models and our new line of thermopile pyranometers. Our silicon-cell models are excellent for applications that do not require the higher accuracy and cost of a thermopile pyranometer. They are less expensive and have a faster response time, but have higher errors under cloudy conditions. Our new line of cost-effective thermopile pyranometers are not officially ISO classified, but feature a blackbody thermopile detector that provides a much broader and more uniform spectral response for better performance in all atmospheric conditions and that compares favorably to other thermopile pyranometers for a fraction of the cost. Applications include shortwave radiation measurement in agricultural, ecological, and hydrological weather networks.
