PGS 100
• Direct solar measurements using an integrated solar tracker with active sun sensor correction• Temperature stabilised spectrophotometer with no moving parts
PGS 100 is a spectrophotometer for the routine automated measurement of the spectrum of direct solar radiation.
PGS 100 is easy to install, set up and use. The adjustable base platform has a built-in bubble level. The integrated sun sensor provides active solar tracking.
PGS 100 comes with Windows control and data logging software. The instrument must be connected via the RS 232 port to a computer (not included) running the supplied software in order to operate. The measured spectra are displayed directly on-screen and can be analysed using wavelength selection tools.
PGS 100 provides spectral data that can be post-processed by the user (software not included) to derive a variety of parameters, including:
- optical depth
- energy distribution
- absorption by atmospheric gasses
- aerosol properties
