The Solar Radiation Sensor uses photoelectric principle to convert sunlight into electrical signals, measuring 400-1100nm spectral radiation. It has high-precision elements, a 95% transmittance dust cover, Modbus-RTU 485 protocol, 5-30V wide voltage, IP67 aluminum shell. Works with Arduino via adapters, ideal for crop monitoring, photovoltaics, meteorology.
