EnvMeter Temperature Sensor for Solar Panels

EnvMeter Temperature Sensor

Products, Temperature sensors

Last update 20 SEP 2021

EnvMeter is a high precision temperature Sensor based on a PT100 temperature sensor, designed for meteorological use. A special screen protects the temperature sensor from precipitation and uses natural ventilation for a short response time. Direct exposure to the sun should be avoided. It works from -40°C to 110°C. The PT100 thermal sensor is ready for use. It therefore does not require any particular assembly. Install in a shady place, one meter above the ground.

Key features

Fast speed of response to temperature variation (<5 seconds, high thermal transmittance).
Measurement precision above the required standards (PT100 class 1/3 DIN sensor).
3/4 wires output.
Shielded cable.
Equipped with temperature sensor certificate.
Easy installation.
