The present invention relates to a measuring device measuring physical characteristics of a fluid. The measuring device comprises a measuring unit measuring physical characteristics of an introduced fluid and displaying the measured physical characteristics of the fluid; an illuminance sensor coupled to the measuring unit and sensing the brightness of external light; a power supply unit coupled to the measuring unit and having a photovoltaic cell for converting the external light into electrical energy; and a control unit accommodated in the measuring unit and controlling on/off of the measuring unit based on a sensing value of the illuminance sensor. According to the measuring device of the present invention, the operation state is automatically controlled by the illuminance sensor and the control unit and power for operation is supplied by the photovoltaic cell, so that the power of a battery can be saved. 본 발명은, 유체의 물리적 특성을 측정하는 것으로서, 유입된 유체의 물리적 특성을 측정하며, 측정된 유체의 물리적 특성을 표시하는 계측부; 상기 계측부에 결합하며, 외부의 빛의 밝기를 감지하는 조도센서; 상기 계측부에 결합하며, 외부의 빛을 전기에너지로 전환시키는 태양광셀을 구비하는 전원공급부; 및 상기 계측부의 내부에 수용되며, 상기 조도센서의 감지치에 기초하여 상기 계측부의 온/오프를 제어하는 제어부를 포함하는 계측장치를 제공한다. 본 발명에 따른 계측장치에 의하면, 작동 여부가 조도센서와 제어부에 의해 자동적으로 제어되도록 하며, 작동을 위한 전력이 태양광셀에 의해 공급되도록 함으로써, 배터리의 전력을 절약할 수 있다.
