Analog Temperature Sensor for Photovoltaics – Temmeter Pro
Temmeter PRO is a ready-to-install PT100 analog temperature sensor (temperature probe)
It is equipped with a stainless steel mounting system. Also, it is equipped with an aluminum bracket and a spring of adjustable length, so that allowing the probe to stay attached to the solar panel with just the right amount of pressure.
This sensor is quick and easy to install with no need for adhesives. It guarantees accurate measurements and highly resistant.
Note: Solar modules exposed to high temperature produce less power than same module at 25°C. Correct Performance Ratio (P/R) calculation requires the correct formula. In Southern Europe, PV module temperatures can reach 85°C during the Summer; in those cases the losses of output power are lower of about 25%.
Soluzione Solare temperature probes are designed for outdoor use and rapid response to temperature variations (from several milliseconds to a few seconds) in order to guarantee precise Performance Ratio calculations.
Key features
- Fast speed of response to temperature variation (under 5 seconds, high thermal transmittance).
- Temperature probe stays attached to the solar panel at just the right pressure, for more stable and accurate measurements.
- Measurement precision is above the required standards (PT100 class A sensor).
- Protected cable.
Note: Remember that for accurate temperature measurements of your solar panels, be ensure to measure the temperature of a representative module of the installation.
Note: in newer versions, remember to add the cap correctly.
- Insert the cap on the sensor head.
- Rotate the cap until it is coplanar with the sensor head.
