CS300-L Silicon Pyranometer

The CS300 is a silicon pyranometer manufactured by Apogee Instruments. The range of the sensor is 300 to 1000 nanometers, which encompasses most of the shortwave radiation that reaches the Earth's surface. This sensor provides solar radiation measurements for solar, agricultural, meteorological, and hydrological applications.
