Measure the actual solar energy reaching your canopy or growing surface — not just a weather forecast estimate. This WMO-standard pyranometer sensor connects to the Growlink platform to deliver precise, real-time solar radiation data across a 300–3200 nm spectral range. Use it to fine-tune lighting supplementation, validate DLI targets, characterize solar performance across field zones, and power your sensor network with the same energy it's measuring.

What This Sensor Monitors

Solar Radiation

Measures incident solar radiation from 0–2000 W/m² across a 300–3200 nm spectral range — the full solar spectrum from UV through near-infrared.

Hemispherical Coverage

2π solid angle measuring geometry captures radiation from the full upper hemisphere, not just a narrow cone — the correct approach for true irradiance measurement.

Temperature-Compensated Output

Built-in temperature compensation circuit maintains ±2% accuracy across –10°C to +40°C, eliminating drift caused by ambient temperature swings.

Key Features

WMO Standard

Conforms to World Meteorological Organization standards for solar radiation measurement — the same benchmark used in professional meteorological and agrometeorological networks.

Long-Range Wireless

LoRaWAN® 863–930 MHz transmits from open fields without Wi-Fi infrastructure. Optional NB-IoT for remote sites with cellular coverage only.

Harsh Environment Ready

Rated for –40°C to +80°C operating range with ±2%/year long-term stability. Built to stay accurate through full growing seasons and years of outdoor exposure.

Expandable System

Combine with additional Sensor Probes on the same hub to build a complete microclimate monitoring station — solar radiation, temperature, humidity, and more from one device.

Flexible Power

Powered via included DC supply (12 VDC). Optional solar panel add-on creates a fully self-sustaining, off-grid monitoring node — powered by the very energy it's measuring.

Growlink OS Integration

Solar radiation data feeds directly into Growlink dashboards to track DLI accumulation, validate supplemental lighting decisions, and correlate radiation with crop response.

What's in the Box

1× Sensor Hub

1× Sensor Probe IO

1× Pyranometer Solar Radiation Sensor

1× Mounting Kit for Pyranometer

1× Power Supply for Sensor Hub

1× SensorHub Wall Mount

1× Pole Mount for SensorHub (φ65–89 mm)

1× Screw Kit

Power Requirement: The Sensor Hub with Sensor Probe IO and connected pyranometer cannot be powered by batteries. The included DC power supply must be used, or an optional solar panel add-on for fully off-grid deployment. LoRaWAN and NB-IoT variants are available — NB-IoT supports CAT M1 (higher data rates) and CAT NB2 (ultra-low power, extended coverage).
