GLOBAL RADIOMETERS AND ALBEDOMETERS 

Global radiometers are sensors for measuring global sunshine radiation, i.e. that received directly by the sunshine disc as well as that reflected by the atmosphere and cloud layers.
LASTEM supplies global radiometers with thermopiles (first class and secondary ISO9060 standards) and with photovoltaic elements. Models are available with normalized electrical outputs and with direct ones. Direct output models are furnished with a calibration certificate, which is only issued upon request for the other models. The albedometers are composed of a double global radiometer, with one face towards the sky and the other towards the ground; depending upon the model, albedometers have the same technical specifications as the global radiometers from which they are derived. The range of radiometric sensors presented in this bulletin includes both direct and normalized output instruments, with ranges of 0..20 mA, 4..20 mA, 0..5V and 0..300mV and with alternating or direct current power supplies.
