Net Irradiance Meter – LPNET07 (Senseca)

Accurate Net Radiation Measurement for Meteorology, Agriculture & Energy Balance Studies

The LPNET07 Net Irradiance Meter by Senseca is a precision instrument designed to measure net radiation across a surface, from near ultraviolet to far infrared wavelengths. Net radiation is the difference between the radiation received by the upper surface and the radiation reflected or emitted from the lower surface, making it a critical parameter for energy balance studies, evapotranspiration analysis, and climate monitoring. It is widely used in meteorology, agriculture, and environmental research applications. Built with a high-sensitivity thermopile sensor and dual spherical PTFE-coated receivers, the LPNET07 provides reliable and stable performance in outdoor environments. Its passive operation requires no external power supply, making it ideal for continuous long-term field deployment in all weather conditions.

Key Features:

  • ☀️ Complete Net Radiation Measurement

    Measures total net irradiance by calculating the difference between incoming and outgoing radiation, including solar and terrestrial longwave radiation.

  • 🔬 Thermopile Sensor with PTFE-Coated Receivers

    Uses a precision thermopile sensor with dual spherical PTFE-coated receivers that provide excellent cosine response and stable spectral performance from UV to far infrared.

Key Features:

  • ⚡ Passive Operation – No Power Supply Required

    The instrument operates without external power, ensuring reliable performance and simple installation even in remote monitoring locations.

  • 🛡️ Weatherproof Outdoor Design

    Designed for continuous outdoor use in all weather conditions with durable materials and minimal maintenance requirements.

Applications:
