CMP 22 has all the features of CMP 21 but uses very high quality quartz domes for a wider spectral range, improved directional response, and reduced thermal offsets. Because of the high optical quality of these domes the directional error is reduced below 5 W/m². Kipp & Zonen is confident that CMP 22 is the best pyranometer currently available.
A waterproof socket is fitted for the signature yellow signal cable, which is available in a range of lengths pre-wired to the waterproof plug.
The integral bubble level is raised to the top of the housing and can be viewed without removing the redesigned snap-on sun shield, which also covers the connector. The drying cartridge is now a screw-in type that can be simply removed using a coin, for changing the desiccant that is supplied in convenient refill packets.
