Tips: Working Principle of Solar Radiation Sensor
Economical solar radiation sensor is based on the principle of silicon cell design. If the sensor is facing down. It can measure reflected radiation and solar radiation incident on an inclined plane. Silicon battery is a new type of environmental protection battery, using a new mechanism of compound silicon salt as electrolyte. Silicon crystals are laminated into n-type and p-type layers, stacked on top of each other. Light striking the crystals induces the "photovoltaic effect" which generates electricity. The electricity produced is called direct current (DC) and can be used immediately or stored in a battery. Its energy characteristics, high current discharge characteristics, low temperature characteristics, service life, environmental performance are better than all kinds of lead acid battery, is the replacement of traditional lead acid battery products.
