LI200X Pyranometer
1. Introduction
The LI200X pyranometer monitors sun plus sky radiation. It connects directly
to our dataloggers, and is used extensively in solar, agricultural, and
meteorological applications.
This manual provides information only for CRBasic dataloggers.
It is also compatible with most of our retired Edlog dataloggers.
For Edlog datalogger support, see an older manual at

2. Cautionary Statements
•
READ AND UNDERSTAND the
Precautions
section at the front of this
manual.
•
Care should be taken when opening the shipping package to not damage or
cut the cable jacket. If damage to the cable is suspected, consult with a
Campbell Scientific application engineer.
•
Although the LI200X is rugged, it should be handled as a precision
scientific instrument.
•
The black outer jacket of the cable is Santoprene
®
rubber. This compound
was chosen for its resistance to temperature extremes, moisture, and UV
degradation. However, this jacket will support combustion in air. It is
rated as slow burning when tested according to U.L. 94 H.B. and will pass
FMVSS302. Local fire codes may preclude its use inside buildings.
3. Initial Inspection
•
Upon receipt of the LI200X, inspect the packaging and contents for
damage. File damage claims with the shipping company.
