PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The TBS-4 is a high-precision field instrument designed for measuring solar and sky radiation. It integrates robotic control technology with advanced radiation measurement techniques.
The system combines sun tracking, rotational angle measurement, spectral radiation measurement, and GPS positioning to deliver accurate and reliable data.
It is widely used in environmental monitoring, meteorology, solar energy, and oceanographic research. The instrument supports networked observation worldwide and features portable installation, automatic sun targeting, solar-powered operation, and automatic data transmission.
Key Features
- Synchronous Measurement Technology
Simultaneously measures direct radiation across 10 spectral bands, along with global radiation, diffuse radiation, sunshine duration, solar elevation angle, and sky radiation (9 bands)—eliminating time-lag errors and improving spectral accuracy. - Fully Automatic Sun Tracking
Dual tracking system combining optical scanning + time-based tracking ensures high precision with no manual intervention. - Aerosol Analysis Capability
Calculates aerosol optical depth (AOD), atmospheric transmittance, scattering intensity, and retrieves parameters such as particle size distribution, phase function, water vapor, and ozone. - GPS Positioning
Real-time GPS tracking for accurate latitude, longitude, and altitude. - Industrial-Grade Motor
Equipped with military-grade motor for long-term stable operation. - Easy Installation & Maintenance-Free
Simple setup with no routine maintenance required. - Wireless Data Transmission
Data automatically uploaded to the Sun Smart Cloud Platform, accessible via mobile, PC, and tablet. - Cloud Data Sharing (VIP Access)
VIP users can access multi-region shared datasets, supporting advanced research. - Multiple Observation Modes
Supports auto sun tracking, full-sky scanning (1296 data points), and custom azimuth/elevation measurements.
