OCR-504 Multispectral Radiometer
SECTION
A - OVERVIEW
The standard OCR-504 irradiance and radiance configurations are shown in
Figure 1 (dimensions are in inches). In-air and in-water weights are
approximate. The housing is constructed from Acetron® GP and has a depth
rating of 200 m.
This configuration uses a Subconn MCBH8M connector. Figure 2 illustrates
the connector pin configuration.
