PVMT01 is a high-accuracy back-of-module temperature sensor designed to assess PV system performance. PVMT01 allows you to estimate and correct the performance index for the temperature dependence of module efficiency. The sensor meets the requirements of the highest-class systems for PV monitoring: IEC 61724-1 Class A. IEC suggests 3 sensors per monitoring station and requires 6 or more sensors on a PV system, depending on the system size. PVMT01 includes a Pt1000 platinum resistance thermometer in a small anodized aluminum disk and a thin, flexible 1 m cable with a connector. You can easily extend the cable using a cable with a matching connector.
