Overview

The compact, industrial-grade ML-01 silicon pyranometer is made for high-quality irradiance measurements. ISO 9060:2018 Class C, fast response, light but tough, the ML-01 features a mono-silicon detector with a UV-resistant cone-shaped diffuser that helps to minimise soiling and water deposition, delivering an excellent cosine response, even at low solar elevation angles.

The sensor can be mounted in the horizontal position for global horizontal measurement applications with a standard removable mounting plate with a spirit level and levelling feet.

Made in Japan and manufactured to EKO's strict quality standards, the ML-01 comes with an optional mounting plate, a 2-year warranty, 2-year recommended recalibration interval, and unique calibration, compliant with international standards, for a cost-effective alternative to larger thermopile-based sensors, easy to integrate into any project or application; solar, agricultural, automotive and more.
