Mounting
The sensor is designed for attachement to a mast. A mounting sleeve is in-
stalled at the top of the mast on th BGC-FTIR-Container where you can fix
the pyranometer with 2 screws and a screwdriver according to Fig. 1.15.

First remove the white sun shield by clipping it off to access the bores and
the spirit level at the base of the pyranometer. Tighten the sensor with two
screws to the mounting sleeve on the top of the mast and use the adjustment
screws for leveling the sensor. Afterwards snap-on the white sun shield again
and reconnect the cable.
Make sure that the place of installation is not shadowed by great obstacles.
If there are any obstacles, make sure that the distance between the obstacles
and the sensor is at least ten times the height of the obstacles.
This way you can assure that the installation corresponds to the definition of
an undisturbed terrain.
NOTE: Do not forget to level the sensor after fixing it on the mounting
sleeve.
