LP PHOT 02 is provided with a 50 mm diameter transparent glass dome, in order to protect thesensor against atmospheric damage.The cosine corrected response has been obtained through both the PTFE diffuser and caseparticular shapes. Deviation between the theoretical response and the real one, is shown infi g.2.The LP PHOT 02 excellent cosine response allows for use even when the sun elevation is low.Installing and mounting the LP PHOT 02 probe for global radiation measurements:Before installation, the silica-gel cartridge must be refi lled. Silica-gel crystals absorbhumidity in the dome chamber and in case of particular climatic conditions, prevent internalcondensation forming on the dome inner wall, with a consequent alteration in measurements.Do not wet or touch the instrument with your hands while refi lling the silica-gel cartridge.Carry out the following instructions in a (possibly) dry environment:1- Loosen the three screws that fi x the white shade disk2- Unscrew the silica-gel cartridge using a coin3- Remove the cartridge perforated cap4- Open the silica-gel sachet (supplied with the luxmeter)5- Fill the cartridge with silica-gel crystals6- Close the cartridge with its own cap, and check that the sealing O-Ring is in the rightposition.7- Screw the cartridge to the luxmeter using a coin8- Make sure the cartridge is tightly screwed (otherwise silica-gel crystal will last for ashorter time)9- Position the shade and tighten it with the screws10- The luxmeter is ready for useFig.3 shows the operations needed to refi ll the cartridge with silica-gel crystals
