ISO 9060:2018 Class A, fast response & spectrally flat, pyrheliometer
1913 Balloon Borne Pyrheliometer
Typical pyrheliometer, for measurement of direct solar radiation
Pyrheliometer: (3) body, (4) protection cap, (5) window with heater, (2) sight, (1) humidity indicator, (7) cable

A pyrheliometer is an instrument that can measure direct beam solar irradiance.[1] Sunlight enters the instrument through a window and is directed onto a thermopile which converts heat to an electrical signal that can be recorded. The signal voltage is converted via a formula to measure watts per square metre.
