Photovoltaic photometer with built-in sensor, determines the energy efficiency of solar systems /
Investigation of the optimal position for photovoltaic panel installation
The PCE-SPM 1 is a photovoltaic (PV) system photometer used to measure solar radiation, solar energy, or solar power. Its easy-to-read 4-digit LCD display shows the Ptot in W/m² or BTU/(ft² x h), while the device's built-in data memory stores up to 43,000 measurements, data which can be further processed and analyzed on a computer via the supplied software.
- Range: 0 ... 2000 W/m² or 0 ... 634 BTU/(ft² x h)
- MAX, MIN, HOLD functions
- Allows long-term measurement via internal memory (32,000)
- Powered by 4 Li-ion batteries (approximate life of 16 days with continuous use)
- RS-232 for data transfer to computer
- Includes Windows-compatible software CD-ROM
- Ideal for installation, inspection, and monitoring of solar panels as well as for research and development of solar energy products
