CAUTION: SolSensor contains a sensitive irradiance measurement device that can be damaged
by impact or abrasion. The irradiance sensor’s accuracy can also be compromised
by soiling. Cover the irradiance sensor with the protective cap whenever it is not
actually mounted and in use.
CAUTION: To clean the irradiance sensor, use only distilled water and a soft cloth. A soft
microfiber cloth and a spray bottle of distilled water are supplied as standard
accessories to SolSensor. Spray the white sensor element and gently wipe it with the
microfiber cloth. Do not use cleaning fluids or solvents to clean the sensor, as these
can cause micro-cracks in the material, reducing the accuracy of the irradiance
measurement.
