Benefits and Features

Detector design and faster response make it a step above the CMP6

Compatible with most Campbell Scientific data loggers

Integrated bubble level is visible without removing sun shield

Desiccantfilled drying cartridge prevents dew from forming on the inner sides of the domes

Compatible with the CVF4 heater/ventilator that keeps the domes free from ice and dew

Measures reflected solar radiation when inverted

Provides measurements in direct sunlight, under plant canopies, when the sky is cloudy, and in artificial light

Technical Description

The CMP11 measures solar radiation with a high-quality blackened thermopile protected by two glass domes. Its flat spectral sensitivity, from 285 to 2800 nm, makes it ideal for applications in natural sunlight, under plant canopies, in green houses or buildings, and inverted to measure reflected solar radiation.

A desiccant-filled drying cartridge prevents dew from forming on the inner sides of the CMP11's domes. Campbell Scientific also offers the CVF4 heater/ventilattohart keeps its domes free fromice and dew.

The CMP11 includes a white snap-on sun shield that reduces the sensor's temperature. A bubble level and adjusting leveling screws enable the sensorto be leveled without using a leveling base.

The CMP11 produces a millivolt signal that is measured directly by a Campbell Scientific datalogger.
