About Solar Radiation Sensors
Campbell Scientific offers pyranometers, net radiometers, and quantum sensors, all designed to measure various aspects of the energy imparted by the sun on the Earth's surface.
A leveling fixture fitted with a bubble level may be required to accurately install solar radiation sensors. For solar radiation sensor mounts and leveling fixtures, see Tripods, Towers, and Mounts.
