Pyranometer

The Tesup Irradiance Sensor is part of TESUP’s professional sensor range, designed to collect accurate environmental data in small-scale renewable energy systems. This photovoltaic pyranometer, based on a reference cell, is ideal for residential rooftops and compact solar setups—especially when used in conjunction with wind turbines.

It measures solar irradiance in watts per square metre (W/m²), enabling precise calculation of the performance ratio (PR) of PV systems. The design prioritises simplicity and cost-efficiency, ensuring reliable performance without unnecessary complexity.

With a measuring range of 0 to 1600 W/m², each sensor is tested under real sunlight using a reference cell certified by the Fraunhofer ISE Institute in Germany. It transmits data via a digital RS485 interface using the MODBUS RTU protocol, and requires a 5V DC power supply. The sensor is fully compatible with the Tesup Atlas Wind Turbine and the Tesup Wizard, making it a great choice for rooftop PV systems, hybrid solar-wind configurations, and off-grid applications.

The device measures 118 x 84 x 55 mm and weighs only 0.2 kg. Installation is quick and straightforward, with seamless integration into Tesup systems.

Monitor your energy production smartly and accurately with the Tesup Irradiance Sensor—designed for the needs of small-scale solar users across New Zealand.
