Overview
The CNR1 net radiometer by Kipp & Zonen is for applications requiring research-grade performance. The radiometer measures the energy balance between incoming short-wave and long-wave IR radiation versus surface-reflected short-wave and outgoing long-wave IR radiation. The CNR1 consists of a pyranometer and pyrgeometer pair that faces upward and a complementary pair that faces downward. The pyranometers and pyrgeometers measure short-wave and far infrared radiation, respectively. The CNR1 also includes an RTD to measure the radiometer’s internal temperature and a heater that can be used to prevent condensation. Lead length is 82 ft. For custom cable length, order CNR1-L.

Detailed Description
The CNR1 comes with an 82-ft cable length. This net radiometer is for applications requiring research-grade performance. It measures the energy balance between incoming short-wave and long-wave infrared radiation versus surface-reflected short-wave and outgoing long-wave infrared radiation.
The CNR1 consists of a pyranometer and pyrgeometer pair that faces upward and a complementary pair that faces downward. The pyranometers and pyrgeometers measure short-wave and far infrared radiation, respectively. All four sensors are calibrated to an identical sensitivity coefficient.
The CNR1 also includes an RTD to measure the radiometer’s internal temperature, a 4WPB100 module to interface the RTD with the data logger, and a heater that can be used to prevent condensation.
The CNR1 uses six differential or four single-ended and two differential analog channels on the data logger. Data loggers that provide sufficient channels include our CR1000, CR3000, and CR5000.

CNR1 is a four-output net radiometer. It gives values for incoming short-wave, incoming long-wave, outgoing short-wave, and outgoing long-wave radiation. It also calculates the net radiation and albedo.
-
If the BR (Bowen Ratio) system is being run on 21X or CR23X dataloggers, a CNR1 net radiometer cannot be used with the system because those data loggers do not have enough input channels. For this reason, Campbell Scientific recommends running a CNR1 out of a separate data logger.
