The Pyranometer Sensor is
calibrated to measure the
shortwave radiation reaching
the Earth's
surface, measured in Joules m-2 s-1 or Watts m-2.

RECALIBRATION
The pyranometer is calibrated to provide
an output of
exactly 0.2 mV per W m-2.
The output of all radiation
sensors tends to decrease over time as the detector ages.
The need for recalibration varies. For
continuous outdoor
use, we recommend
that you send your sensors in every 2
years for recalibration. Apogee also offers
recalibration of LI-COR Pyranometer Sensors.
Do not attempt recalibration without a radiation standard.
