POA BRACKET | PYRANOMETER + REFERENCE CELL, SQUARE TT + ROUND TT, ISOLATED
DETAILS
NRG's latest brackets simplify the installation of your chosen pyranometer and reference cell sensor in a plane-of-array position on square and round torque tubes for tracked arrays. This alignment facilitates accurate monitoring of solar energy availability, system performance, soiling effects, and enables effective analysis and optimization of solar energy systems.
Compatible sensor models include the NRG R1 Pyranometer, the old and new generation body designs from Hukseflux, as well as Kipp & Zonen’s CMP / SMP / SUV line.
