USING APOGEE UV SENSORS WITH ZENTRA SYSTEM
3. DATA INTERPRETATION
Apogee UV sensors used with the ZENTRA system report UV-A irradiance in energetic flux
density units of watts per square meter (W/m
2
). Additionally, the sensor orientation information
is provided in the metadata tab of ZENTRA Cloud and ZENTRA Utility file downloads
(Microsoft
®
Excel
®
spreadsheet). Sensor orientation is reported as the zenith angle in units of
degrees, with a zenith angle of 0° indicating a sensor oriented straight upwards.

Table 2 Troubleshooting
Problem Possible Solution
Sensor not responding
Check power to the sensor and logger.
Check sensor cable and stereo plug connector integrity.
Check that the SDI-12 address of the sensor is 0 (factory default).
Check this with ZENTRA Utility by going to Actions, select Digital
sensor terminal, choose the port that the sensor is on, and send
the
?I!
command to the sensor from the dropdown menu.
Sensor values are not reasonable Verify the sensor is not shaded.
Verify the orientation angle of sensors.
Cable or stereo plug
connector failure
If the stereo plug connector is damaged or needs to be replaced,
contact Customer Support for a replacement connector or
splice kit.
If a cable is damaged refer to the METER wire-splicing guide for
cable repair.
It is recommended that Apogee UV sensors are returned for factory recalibration every
2 years. Visit
