Radiation measuring station

Continuous measurement of global, diffuse, direct and albedo radiation, as well as ambient temperature, air pressure, humidity, wind direction and wind speed.

The radiation sensors are ventilated CM22, CMP11, CHP1 and SPlite from K&Z as well as SR05 from Hukseflux and SPN1 from Delta-T.

Continuous measurement of photovoltaic modules via IV scan for six different orientations:

  • South vertical (tilt 90 °, azimuth -13.2 °)
  • South horizontal (inclination 0 °)
  • South tilted (tilt 35 °, azimuth -13.2 °)
  • East inclined (inclination 35 °, azimuth -103.2 °)
  • West inclined (inclination 35 °, azimuth -76.8 °)
  • North tilted (tilt 35 °, azimuth -166.8 °)

Measurement data from the beginning of 2014 with a resolution of 12 seconds. Since 2016 with a resolution of 4 seconds.
