Technical content

Precision Infrared Radiometer Th e SI-111* is a precision, infrared radiometer that makes continuous measurements in fi eld conditions. Infrared temperature sensors provide a non-contact means of measuring the surface temperature of an ob- ject or surface by sensing the infrared radiation given off by the subject. Th is unique sensor is manufactured by Apogee Instruments Inc. (Logan, UT). Typical applications include: Road surface temperature• Plant canopy temperature for irrigation scheduling • and crop water stress Soil, snow, and water surface temperatures• The SI-111 is comprised of a thermopile, which measures surface temperature, and a thermistor, which measures sensor body temperature. The two temperature probes are housed in a rugged aluminum body that contains a germanium window. When compared with the silicon window of its predecessor, the germanium window facilitates correction of target emissivity, reduces the effect of atmospheric humidity, and allows the sensor to be used at greater distances from the target. Both the thermopile and the thermistor output a millivolt signal. Our dataloggers measure the milli- volt signals and apply the Stefan-Boltzman equation, which corrects for the eff ect of sensor body tempera- ture on the target temperature. Use of the Stefan- Boltzman equation allows the SI-111 to achieve an absolute accuracy of ±0.2°C from -10° to 65°C. Mounting The SI-111 is often mounted to a CM202, CM204, or CM206 crossarm, a tripod or tower mast, or a user-supplied pole via a CM220 Right Angle Mount or CM230 Adjustable Inclination Mount. Th e SI-111 should be mounted perpendicular to the target surface. Therefore, the CM230 mount is recom- mended when the target surface is on an incline. Th e SI-111 may also be mounted directly to a user- supplied camera tripod. The SI-111 is mounted to a CM204 crossarm via the CM230; the CM230 allows the sensor to be pointed at the surface of interest. The SI-111 is mounted to a CM204 crossarm via the CM220 Right Angle Mount. *Prior to November 2008, the SI-111 was named the IRR-P .
