Seaward Solar Survey 200R (396A916) – Multifunction Irradiance Meter with Data Logging

The Solar Survey 200R (396A916) is a rugged, hand‑held irradiance meter purpose-built for PV and solar thermal installers. Featuring a TrueSi™ photovoltaic reference cell for higher accuracy, along with built-in compass, inclinometer, temperature sensors, and wireless Solarlink™ connectivity, this tool meets IEC 62446 requirements and streamlines site evaluation and performance documentation.

Key Features

• Accurate irradiance measurement: Uses reference cell (not photo‑diode), with display options in W/m² or BTU/hr‑ft²

• Orientation & slope tools: Built-in digital compass and inclinometer for roof bearing and pitch measurements

• Dual temperature readings: Measures both ambient air and module surface temperature via included suction probe

• Solarlink™ wireless sync: Automatically streams irradiance and temperature data to Seaward PV150/PV200 testers (sold separately), for live readings during electrical testing

• Built-in data logger: Stores up to 5,000 records, with USB interface to download time-series data for post‑analysis or formal reporting

• Rugged design: Lightweight (≈ 0.25 kg), handheld, runs on 2 × AA batteries for over 20,000 readings, with auto power-off after 2 minutes
