SR11 Pyranometer 

Connections to Campbell Scientific dataloggers are given in TABLE 

6-1

. The 

pyranometer can be measured using either differential or single-ended 

analog

ue

 channels. A differential voltage measurement is recommended 

because it has better noise rejection than a single-ended measurement. If a 

differential channel is not available, a single-ended measurement can be used.

Programming basics are provided in the following section. A complete 

program example can be found in Appendix 

A

Example Program

 

(p. A-1)

Solar radiation can be reported as an average flux density (W m

–2

) or daily total 

flux density (MJ m

–2

). The appropriate multipliers are listed in TABLE 

6-2

Programming examples are given for both average and daily total solar 

radiation. 

The SR11 outputs a low-level voltage ranging from 0 to a maximum of up to  

35 mV, in natural light, depending on the calibration factor and radiation level. 

The SR11 is measured using either the differential voltage instruction 

(

VoltDiff

) or a single-ended voltage instruction (

VoltSE

). A differential 

voltage measurement is recommended because it has better noise rejection than 

a single-ended measurement. If a differential channel is not available, a single-

ended measurement can be used. The acceptability of a single-ended 

measurement can be determined by simply comparing the results of single-

ended and differential measurements made under the same conditions.  

6.4.1  Input Range 

The output voltage of the SR11 is usually –0.1 to 50 mV per 1000 W m

–2

When estimating the maximum likely value of sensor output, a maximum value 

of solar radiation of 1100 W m

–2

 can be used for field measurements on a 

horizontal surface.
