MS-80SH Albedometer

SKU: N/A Categories: ,

Class A albedometer for precise incident and reflected solar irradiance measurement, combining two heated fast-response pyranometers with digital diagnostics for bifacial PV, solar-resource and meteorological monitoring.

Typical Applications

  • Bifacial photovoltaic performance monitoring
  • Solar albedo measurement
  • Ground-reflected irradiance monitoring
  • Utility-scale solar plants
  • Solar resource assessment
  • Meteorological radiation stations
  • Outdoor material reflectance testing
  • Climate and environmental research

The MS-80SH Albedometer is a high-accuracy Class A solar albedo and reflected irradiance measurement system designed for bifacial photovoltaic plants, meteorological monitoring and outdoor material testing. Built from two fast-response MS-80SH pyranometers mounted in an MS-Albedo Kit, the instrument simultaneously measures incoming and ground-reflected solar radiation, while integrated dome heating, digital communications and onboard diagnostics support reliable long-term operation in demanding PV performance and solar-resource monitoring applications.

Key Features

  • ISO 9060:2018 Class A sensor performance
  • IEC 61724-1 Class A PV monitoring capability
  • Two MS-80SH pyranometers for incident and reflected irradiance
  • Measures solar albedo and total reflectance
  • Less than 0.5 second 95% response time
  • Spectrally flat 285–3000 nm response
  • Integrated solid-state dome heating
  • Modbus RS-485 RTU communication
  • SDI-12 communication
  • Internal temperature diagnostics
  • Internal humidity monitoring
  • Tilt and roll diagnostics
  • Level A EMI/EMC surge protection
  • IP67 sensor construction
  • ISO 17025 calibration
  • 5-year warranty and recalibration interval

Using matched upward- and downward-facing Class A pyranometers allows the system to directly compare incident and reflected solar radiation, making it particularly valuable for evaluating ground reflectance and the rear-side energy contribution of bifacial PV modules.
