SYSTEMS Solar Resource Measurement System with Rotating Shadowband Radiometer RSR100 Rotating Shadowband Radiometer Overview The RSR100, Rotating Shadowband Radiometer, offers a lower-cost option for providing solar measurements GH, DIFF, and DNI. The RSR100 system uses the fast response time of a Li-Cor photocell diode (10 µs) coupled with the burst measurement (up to 2 kHz), control, and processing capability of a Campbell Scientific datalogger to measure GHI and DIFF solar irradiance and compute DNI. The RSR100 is built around Irradiance, Inc.’s RSR2 TM Rotating Shadow- band Radiometer. The RSR2 is a second-generation instrument incor- porating improvements in accuracy and mechanical reliability from collaborative research conducted at NREL, Sandia, and the University of Oregon Solar Monitoring Lab.
