An excitation voltage of 2.5 V DC is recommended to minimize self-heating and current drain, while still
maintaining adequate measurement sensitivity (mV output from thermistor per C). However, other excitation
voltages can be used. Decreasing the excitation voltage will decrease self-heating and current drain, but will also
decrease thermistor measurement sensitivity. Increasing the excitation voltage will increase thermistor
measurement sensitivity, but will also increase self-heating and current drain.
The internal thermistor provides a temperature reference for calculation of target temperature. Resistance of the
thermistor changes with temperature. The thermistor resistance (R

Longwave Radiation Measurement
The detector output from SL-510 and SL-610 pyrgeometers follows the fundamental physics of the Stefan-
Boltzmann Law, where radiation transfer is proportional to the fourth power of absolute temperature. The mV
signal from the detector is linearly proportional to the longwave radiation balance between the target and
detector, analogous to longwave radiation emission being linearly proportional to the fourth power of
temperature in the Stefan-Boltzmann Law. A modified form of the Stefan-Boltzmann equation is used to calibrate
sensors, and subsequently, calculate longwave irradiance from target:
