MECO launches Solar Power Meter-936 and Solar System Analyzer Model 9018BT

MECO has launched its Solar Power Meter-936 for measuring solar power or solar irradiance. The portable meter uses high sensitivity silicon photodiode to measure solar power. MECO solar power meter can also detect solar tilt angle with orientation.

This instrument is designed to measure solar power in the range from 400 to 1100 nanometers. It measures the solar power and transmission up to 2000 W/m2. Solar Power Meter has Max / Min / Avg and data hold functions to indentify locations with maximum or minimum power. The good spectral range, orientation and angular detection of meter allow users to conduct the most precise quantitative measurements of solar power radiation.

Features: 

• Solar power measurement with Orientation and Tilt angle
• Easy measurement for rate of daylight penetration
• Auto change for measuring range
• Auto power off with disable function
• Instantaneous display Ave/Min/Max values
• 20 points memory
• Socket of tripod mounting
• Magnetic mount
• Backlit LCD and 4 digits triple display

Applications: 

• Solar radiation measurements
• Solar power research for location of the solar panels or solar water heater
• Physics and optical laboratories
• Meteorology
• Agriculture
• Windows performance – calculation and verification of the heating or heat reduction caused by direct sunlight

Another product launched by MECO is Solar System Analyzer- 9018BT, which is a portable analyzer used for testing, monitoring, measuring, analyzing and troubleshooting various parameters of solar system.

Analyzer draws I-V curve with parameters such as Voc, Isc, Vpm, Ipm with efficiency (%) calculation for solar system. This analyzer comes with Remote Solar Detector for measuring and monitoring solar irradiance and temperature. The Analyzer and Remote Solar Detector are connected by Bluetooth Wireless technology (Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR Class 1).

Solar analyzer has Intelligent Test Logic with no personal attendance required. Solar System Analyzer waits and tests the system until appropriate sun light Irradiance is detected. The system continuously monitors DC output of Solar System and AC power output of inverter; calculate Efficiency of DC to AC power conversion and maximum output power. The analyzer can be used for quality control at production line, warehouse or site of installation, maintenance of solar panels, identify requirement of solar power system, verify best angle of installation and for Research and Development.

Analyzer is supplied with user friendly software for Data Storing and Analysis. Users can store data (.CSV/.TXT) that can be read in MS Excel and print Waveform / Graph via printer. Users can generate test report with testing data and curves of information. This report can be viewed by browser and printed out. Report can be varied according to the selected curve items (OPC/STC/OPC, STC).
