---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
MFR-7 | Global Horizontal | W/m2 | 01/30/2012 | - | 625 | N/A |
Global Horizontal Irradiance measured by a thermopile pyranometer, with a spectral response from 300 to 2800 nm. Also includes independent interference filter-photodiodes to measure the spectral irradiance at 6 wavelengths (10 nm FWHM). | ||||||
MFR-7 | Diffuse Horizontal | W/m2 | 01/30/2012 | - | 625 | N/A |
Diffuse Horizontal Irradiance measured by the above pyranometer and 6 photodiodes, when band rotates and blocks the sun. | ||||||
(calc) | Direct Normal | W/m2 | 01/30/2012 | - | - | N/A |
Calculated using Global and Diffuse measurements. | ||||||
