Upgrade your HOBO station with Smart Sensor Technology

A silicon pyranometer sensor that effectively measures light levels. Rapid deployment, with no complicated programming or setup required. This sensor offers a measurement range of 0 to 1280 W/m2 over a spectral range of 300 to 1100 nm. A measurement averaging mode is available.

Also available in a wireless model for use with the HOBOnet Field Monitoring System.

The silicon pyranometer smart sensor is designed to work with HOBO® stations. The smart sensor has a plug-in modular connector that allows it to be added easily to a station. All calibration parameters are stored inside the smart sensor, which automatically communicates configuration information to the logger without any programming, calibration, or extensive user setup.


Features

  • Measurement range of 0 to 1280 W/m2 over a spectral range of 300 to 1100 nm
  • Plug-n-play smart sensor
  • Compatible with H21, H22, and U30 family loggers
