ISO 9060:2018 Classification Explained

Understand Class A, B and C criteria and what each classification means for your measurement uncertainty budget.

From Spec Sheet to Field Installation

Learn mounting geometry, leveling requirements, cable routing and data logger integration for repeatable, accurate readings.

Diagnose Before You Lose Data

Identify thermal offset, cosine error and dome contamination before they distort your irradiance record.

About the course

This course covers the technical fundamentals of the MS-80SH pyranometer design and operation: from thermopile construction and spectral response to ISO 9060:2018 classification criteria and real-world integration challenges. Written for EPCs, project developers and system integrators who work with irradiance measurement on operational or planned PV sites. By the end, you will be able to evaluate pyranometer specifications, select the right instrument for your application and confirm correct installation and integration into your data acquisition system.
