Soluzione Solare Sunmeter 2 Pro SM2-485PRO RS485 Modbus SunSpec Irradiance Sensor

The Sunmeter 2 Pro (SM2-485PRO) by Soluzione Solare is a reference cell irradiance sensor that measures solar irradiance on the plane of the modules. It uses a high quality monocrystalline PV cell laminated with anti-reflective solar glass, so as to have the same spectral and angular response as the plant's modules: this is the figure required to calculate the Performance Ratio and verify actual yield according to IEC 61724-1.

It is installed coplanar with the modules, on the mounting structure, using the fixing bracket supplied. The output is digital RS485 with Modbus RTU protocol compliant with the SunSpec standard, so it connects directly to the data loggers and smart loggers of the main inverter manufacturers. The connection is made with an 8-pin IP67 M12 connector on a 50 cm UV-resistant cable; the power supply is 9–30 V DC with protection against polarity reversal and short circuit. The body is made of aluminium with UV-resistant E.V.A. encapsulation. The sensor also includes temperature measurement and can be combined with the Temmeter module temperature probe and the anemometer of the same family.

Key features

Monocrystalline reference cellSensor made with a monocrystalline PV cell and anti-reflective solar glass: spectral and angular response identical to that of the plant's modules.
0 – 1500 W/m² measurement with ±2 % accuracyMeasuring range compliant with IEC 61724-1 with accuracy ≤ ±2 % and spectral response from 0.3 to 1.1 µm.
SunSpec digital outputModbus RTU protocol over RS485 compliant with the SunSpec standard, for direct connection to third-party data loggers and smart loggers.
Integrated temperature measurementIt also measures temperature with an accuracy of ≤ ±0.5 °C, with an operating range from −30 °C to +90 °C.
Outdoor constructionAluminium body with UV-resistant E.V.A. encapsulation, 8-pin IP67 M12 connector and 50 cm UV-resistant cable.
Compliant with industry standardsDesigned according to IEC 60904-2, 60904-4, 60904-10 and IEC 61724-1:2021 for monitoring the performance of PV plants.
