Verified cosine response (documented in writing)
Verified temperature dependence
Low dome IR offset error
Excellent linearity
Fast response time
The CMP 21 is a high performance research grade pyranometer, and is fully compliant with all ISO 9060 Secondary Standard Instrument performance criteria (highest possible ISO pyranometer performance category).
CMP 21 has the same detector as the previous CM 22 and individually optimised temperature compensation. A standard thermistor sensor is fitted to monitor the housing temperature. Each instrument is supplied with its own temperature and directional (cosine response) test data.
It is the choice for scientific use and in top level solar radiation monitoring networks such as the BSRN (Baseline Surface Radiation Network) of WMO.
