LONG-TERM TEST RESULTS

The Utah State University Crop Physiology Lab has conducted a long-term outdoor pyranometer study for the past 10 years.

Their results are available below and show that the Apogee pyranometers compare well to other silicon-cell photodiode and thermopile pyranometers. Each model is compared to a heated and ventilated Kipp and Zonen CM21 thermopile pyranometer.
