The LiCor pyranometer is designed for field measurement of global solar radiation in agricultural, meteorological, and solar energy studies. In clear unobstructed daylight conditions the LiCor pyranometer compares favorably with first class thermopile type pyranometers but is priced at a fraction of the cost.
The LI–200SZ features a silicon photovoltaic detector mounted in a fully cosine–corrected miniature head. Current output, which is directly proportional to solar radiation, is calibrated against an Eppley Precision Spectral Pyranometer (PSP) under natural daylight conditions in units of watts per square meter (w/m2) Under most conditions of natural daylight, the error is <5%.
The spectral response of the LI–200SZ does not include the entire solar spectrum, so it must be used in the same lighting conditions as those under which it was calibrated. Therefore, the LI–200SZ should only be used to measure unobstructed daylight. It should NOT be used under vegetation, artificial lights, in a greenhouse, or for reflected solar radiation.
