Installation and maintenance 

 
When installed permanently, the PAR 

LITE

 can be attached to 

its mounting platform using the holes that are drilled through 
the body. The holes are standardised to Kipp & Zonen design. 
Leveling can be done with a level instrument over the 
rim/diffuser. 
Preferred orientation is with the cable pointing away from the 
equator (this prevents excessive heating of the leads). When 
installed on a mast, preferred orientation is such that no 
shadow is cast on the PAR 

LITE

 during any time of the day. 

On the northern hemisphere this implies that the PAR 

LITE

 

should be south of the mast. 
 
The PAR 

LITE

 can be used to measure reflected radiation, for 

instance when pointed towards the earth in the inverted 
position. When measuring reflected radiation it is advised to 
measure at a height H of at least 1.5 meters above the surface 
in order to avoid shading effects and to promote spatial 
averaging. (99% of the signal is from a field with radius 10.H) 
The PAR 

LITE

 is an all weather instrument. 

Once installed the PAR 

LITE

 needs little maintenance. It is 

suggested to clean the detector as part of a regular routine, 
using water or alcohol.
