The conversion efficiency of photovoltaic modules, the PR value of power station systems, the evaluation of power generation, and the correction of IV curve standards all rely on accurate real-time meteorological and environmental data. Parameters such as irradiance, module temperature, environmental temperature and humidity, wind speed, and air pressure are indispensable basic basis for photovoltaic detection. Traditional fixed meteorological stations have a long installation cycle and cannot be moved, and are only suitable for fixed monitoring of large ground power stations; Ordinary simple portable meteorological equipment uses mechanical rotation sensors, which are prone to jamming in sandstorms, failure due to low-temperature icing, insufficient accuracy of irradiation sensors, and inability to synchronously collect a complete set of meteorological elements for photovoltaic detection. The data transmission is unstable, and it is difficult to use in mountainous, distributed, household small photovoltaic, and on-site IV sampling detection scenarios. Suzhou Laikesi LAILX is deeply involved in the field of photovoltaic detection equipment and has launched the LXH506 portable photovoltaic dedicated weather station. It adopts a non mechanical integrated sensing design, lightweight and rapid deployment, synchronously collects multi-dimensional meteorological parameters for photovoltaic detection, adapts to various mobile detection scenarios, and provides a high-precision movable data base for photovoltaic performance calculation and power generation evaluation. https://www.lailx.com/product

The core advantage of LXH506 is the exclusive integrated sensing integration of photovoltaics. The entire equipment integrates Class A high-precision total radiation sensors, patch type component temperature probes, environmental temperature and humidity, ultrasonic wind speed and direction, atmospheric pressure and other sensing modules. There are no mechanical rotating parts, completely solving the industry's common problems of traditional wind cups, wind and sand blocking, and icing failure. It operates stably in a wide temperature range of -40 ℃ to 85 ℃, and can collect data stably throughout the year in the northwest desert, high humidity salt spray along the southern coast, and high-altitude and low-temperature mountainous areas. The total radiation sensor has a measurement accuracy of Class A standard, with fast response speed and accurate capture of instantaneous light changes. It synchronously collects inclined surface irradiation data, perfectly matching the STC standard correction requirements for outdoor IV field testing. The component temperature probe is attached to the surface of the component, and real-time synchronous collection of the real working temperature of the battery cell is carried out to eliminate measurement errors caused by ambient air temperature and component working temperature difference, ensuring the authenticity and reliability of IV curve conversion and system efficiency evaluation data.

The whole machine is designed to be extremely lightweight and portable. All sensors, data acquisition hosts, storage cables, and telescopic tripods are stored in a small portable protective box. The whole set is lightweight and can be easily carried by a single person for transportation. It can be easily carried by cars and construction vehicles without the need for large transportation tools. The device deployment process is minimalist, with quick lifting and splicing of tripods, one click calibration of sensors, and complete setup and debugging within 5 minutes of unboxing. It can move synchronously with IV detection equipment to collect real-time meteorological data at corresponding points during each component and string detection, solving the shortcoming of fixed meteorological station single point data not representing the temperature difference of the entire field. The advantages of distributed roof, mountain segmented photovoltaic, and floating power station multi-point sampling detection scenarios are significant. The device supports independent offline work and has a built-in large capacity energy storage lithium battery. It can continuously collect weather data for 7 days without an external power source. It is equipped with a small solar panel for long-term field monitoring without frequent charging, completely freeing itself from the constraints of mains wiring.

The intelligence level of data collection and transmission is leading in the industry. The collection host refreshes a complete set of meteorological data every second, and the local storage module can save the annual historical monitoring data. It supports 4G, Bluetooth, USB multi-mode data transmission and can be synchronized in real time to the LAILX photovoltaic detection management cloud platform. Remote viewing of real-time curves, historical data, and daily radiation total can be done on mobile phones and computer terminals. The device can be paired with the LX-PV33 portable IV tester to automatically synchronize and bind corresponding time and point meteorological parameters when detecting IV curves. Performance data corresponds one-to-one with environmental data, automatically completing STC standard conversion without manual input of meteorological parameters, greatly reducing the workload of on-site data recording and minimizing manual input errors. Equipped with professional data analysis software, it can export annual statistical reports on irradiation, temperature, and wind speed for power generation forecasting, annual comparison of component attenuation, and preparation of reports by third-party testing agencies.

The protection and adaptability fully cover the entire photovoltaic scene. The sensor acquisition unit of the whole machine is IP67 dustproof and waterproof, rainproof, dust-proof, and anti UV aging. The tripod is made of high-strength aluminum alloy material, and its wind resistance level meets the requirements of outdoor deployment. It can be fixed on the roof, support frame, and ground for multiple days of continuous monitoring in the short term. The equipment is widely adaptable to scenarios such as completion acceptance of photovoltaic power stations, on-site IV synchronous testing, preliminary survey of light resources, multi-point energy efficiency evaluation of distributed photovoltaics, photovoltaic research experiments in universities, and complementary meteorological monitoring of agriculture and photovoltaics. It forms a complete detection solution with the LAILX complete set of photovoltaic detection instruments.

The product manager of Suzhou LAILX introduced that the LXH506 accurately targets the industry pain point of the lack of supporting mobile meteorological monitoring equipment for on-site photovoltaic detection. With its three core advantages of no mechanical sensing, high precision, and easy deployment, it fills the gap in outdoor photovoltaic detection environment data collection. In the future, the brand will continue to upgrade sensing accuracy, expand rainfall and soil temperature expansion modules, improve multi device linkage digital systems, and build a full chain photovoltaic detection system of "meteorological monitoring performance testing defect detection electrical safety". With a complete set of independently developed high-precision instruments, it will empower the photovoltaic industry to lean and digitize detection and operation, and help promote the high-quality and sustainable development of the domestic new energy industry.
