Scope

1.1 This test method covers the measurement of solar transmittance (terrestrial) of materials in sheet form by using a pyranometer, an enclosure, and the sun as the energy source.

1.2 This test method also allows measurement of solar transmittance at angles other than normal incidence.

1.3 This test method is applicable to sheet materials that are transparent, translucent, textured, or patterned.

1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
