There are a number of devices that can be used to measure solar radiation including pyranometers, radiometers and quantum sensors. You can read more about solar radiation instruments here.

Solar Radiation has a VERY wide spectrum, and there's no one single instrument that will measure it all.

If you will tell us what exactly you want to measure and why, It will help us to tell you what type of equipment should be used.

Clear questions, will result in clear answers.

Wangito.
