Fluke IRR2-BT Solar Site Survey Irradiance Meter
The Fluke IRR2-BT Solar Site Survey Irradiance Meter helps solar professionals complete site surveys, installation checks and maintenance tasks with confidence. It combines irradiance, temperature and inclination measurements in one compact instrument. As a result, users can gather key data quickly while reducing the need for multiple tools.
Built for field use, the Fluke IRR2-BT Irradiance Meter features a rugged design and an easy-to-read LCD display that remains visible in bright sunlight. The integrated temperature sensor delivers instant readings, while the included compass helps verify array direction. This allows technicians to record critical site information efficiently and accurately.
Fast Solar Site Assessments
During solar installation and commissioning work, accurate irradiance data is essential. The Fluke IRR2-BT Solar Site Survey Irradiance Meter measures irradiance up to 1400 W/m² and complies with IEC 62446-1 requirements for solar testing. In addition, the unit measures panel tilt from -90° to +90°, helping users confirm the correct mounting angle.
Wireless Bluetooth connectivity expands functionality even further. When paired with compatible Fluke solar testing equipment, the meter supports streamlined testing workflows and instant data sharing. Therefore, technicians can improve productivity while maintaining reliable measurement records.
Designed for Daily Field Use
Long battery life makes the instrument suitable for extended site visits. Four AA alkaline batteries provide up to 50 hours of operation or more than 9000 readings, while the automatic power-off function helps conserve battery life between measurements. Consequently, the meter remains ready for demanding work schedules.
Two set options are available to suit different testing requirements. The Fluke IRR2-BT Irradiance Meter can be used as a standalone survey instrument or as part of a compatible solar PV testing setup. With accurate measurements, wireless capability and robust construction, it provides a practical solution for photovoltaic installation and maintenance professionals.
