Description

Net radiation is a key variable in the surface energy balance and influences turbulent fluxes, including evapotranspiration. Applications include measurements on flux towers and weather stations.

The new Apogee Instruments SN-500 four-component net radiometer features SDI-12 output.

- Four-component Net Radiometer
- An upward-looking and downward-looking pyranometer, and an upward-looking and downward-looking pyrgeometer provide separate measurements of the four components of net radiation.
- Onboard A/D Conversion and SDI-12 Output
- Apogee net radiometers feature onboard A/D conversion and SDI-12 output to eliminate the requirement of multiple analogue datalogger channels.
- Individually Heated Radiometers
- Each radiometer includes an individual heater to increase accuracy by minimising the influence of dew, frost and snow on the filter.
- Compact and Light Weight
- Designed to be light weight and small in size to facilitate easy mounting.
- Cost-effective
- Apogee's net radiometer is low cost compared to other four-component net radiometers on the market.

The S-Node features:

- LoRaWAN low-power long-range connectivity
- Supporting SDI-12, 2 x 32-bit dry-contact counting digital inputs.
- Optional CAT-M1
- Solar rechargeable Lithium-ion, Single use LiSOCl2, or external 12V power options
- Optional Multi-constellation GNSS
- AS923 and AU915 available, with other region plans available upon request
- Optional Bluetooth interface
- Threshold based alarms
- Standard IP65 enclosure, optional IP67
