SPECIAL PROJECTS

While the Eppley Laboratory does not recommend the "re-inventing of the wheel", we often work with customers to satisfy any non-standard requirements they may have. This may be as simple as extending the temperature dependence range or as extensive as re-building an instrument in a special case.

Recent projects include:

• design and construction of albedometers and net pyrgeometers.
• replacement of bronze case of the PSP and PIR with aluminum or plastic (Delrin, PVC, PET) for use on aircraft, balloons, ships, and marine bouys.
• special wiring and extended testing of PSPs, PIRs and NIPs for ARM (Atmospheric Radiation Measurement), BSRN (Baseline Surface Radiation Network), and GAW (Global Atmospheric Watch).
