Description

The Kipp & Zonen CMP11 pyranometer 128762 has been used for measuring DHI since June 2018.

The pyranometer has the following calibrations:
- 8.59 - November 2012 (factory original)
- 8.76 - June 2018 (unknown source)
- 8.58 - January 2021 (factory calibration)

Give how close the two factory calibrations are, this makes me question the legitimacy of the June 2018 calibration, which was probably done at DTU.

- [ ] Investigate the source of the June 2018 calibration (start by checking DTU's records).

Research direction

Start by checking DTU's calibration records for pyranometer 128762 and the June 2018 calibration value. Done means identifying the source of that calibration and documenting whether it is legitimate compared with the November 2012 and January 2021 factory calibrations.
