The PVMet series is simple to use, tough enough for harsh environmental conditions, and powerful enough to transform a solar installation into a sustainable solution that saves resources and energy.<\/p>\n<p>The PVmet-500-M1 is a unique weather station based on the modular PVmet-500 platform, compatible with IEC 61724 requirements for PV monitoring. Multiple high-end pyranometers and weather sensors can be combined to form a turnkey solution for PV monitoring applications. This low-cost station is compact, easy to manage, install and connect to an inverter or SCADA system.<\/p>\n<p>The PVmet-500-M1 weather station comprises a powerful electronic interface for connecting all sensors and converting the output to a Modbus data string (RS-485 Modbus interface &#8211; Sunspec\u00ae certified).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Key Features:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul class=\"f-list product-features-list\">\n<li>Ambient Temperature, Relative Humidity &amp; Barometric Pressure sensors<\/li>\n<li>Adjustable Global or Plane-of-Array Irradiance Sensor<\/li>\n<li>PV Back-of-Panel Temperature Sensors<\/li>\n<li>Powerful sensor interface &amp; Modbus RTU 485<\/li>\n<li>Includes Mini-Aervane for wind speed &amp; direction<\/li>\n<li>Ships fully assembled and factory calibrated<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The PVMet-500-M1 with Mini-Aervane for wind speed &amp; direction monitoring is a modular, multi-point weather station platform for PV monitoring.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":7672,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"content-type":""},"product_cat":[1526],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-9187","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-weather-stations","7":"product_parameters-wind-speed-direction","8":"product_parameters-ambient-temperature","9":"product_type_cat-instruments","10":"product_application_cat-meteorology","12":"first","13":"instock","14":"shipping-taxable","15":"purchasable","16":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>PVMet-500-M1 Weather Station \u2013 Smart Solar Monitoring Solution<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Monitor solar irradiance, module and ambient temperature with PVMet-500-M1.
