  SOLAR & ATMOSPHERIC INSTRUMENTS
(from Kipp & Zonen the Netherlands)
 


 
Solar Instruments : In the product groups below you will find instruments for the measurement of Global and Direct Solar Radiation from the Ultra-Violet (UV) to the Far Infrafred (FIR) at a variety of performance levels. There are Specific Radiometers for measurements such as PAR and LUX and a range of accessories to enhance performance, plus optional cable lengths. The Data Loggers are optimised for Kipp & Zonen radiometers and the Calibration Facilities are similar to those used for factory calibration. For Sun Trackers please go to the Atmospheric Science Instruments section.
