2. II 41 LP SD18 GB Sunshine duration sensor GB Description The Sunshine Duration sensor LP SD18 measures sunshine status and duration The WMO World Meteorological Organization defines the sunshine duration as the time during which the direct solar radiation exceeds the level of 120 W m The LP SD18 performs the measure of radiation with an array of photodiodes arranged in a particular geometry which allows to obtain an accurate measurement in any weather conditions This solution avoids the use of mechanical moving parts and ensures high reliability over time The instrument besides indicating the presence of sun as required by the WMO measures also direct radiation SRD therefore it can be used as a low cost alterna tive to a pyrheliometer which use is bound to a solar tracker The instrument is available in three versions which differ in the type of output LP SD18 1 RS485 MODBUS RTU output and volt free contact output contact closed SRD gt 120 W m contact open SRD lt 120 W m LP SD18 2 RS485 MODBUS RTU output analog voltage output 0 1 Vdc which cor responds to 0 2000 W m of direct radiation and digital output voltage digital voltage output 1V SRD gt 120 W m OV SRD lt 120 W m LP SD18 3 SDI 12 output and volt free contact output contact closed SRD gt 120 W m contact open SRD lt 120 W m The LP SD18 is equipped with a separately heating e
