Infrared rainfall sensor

1. Product introduction of infrared rain sensor

Infrared rain sensor is also called optical rain sensor and infrared rain sensor. Infrared rain sensor uses pure sinusoidal infrared light source, built-in narrow-band filter, and has a rain-sensing surface of 78 square centimeters. It can measure rainfall with high precision and is not affected by high-intensity sunlight, etc. light effects. FT-G1 infrared rain sensor adopts three-channel narrow-band infrared detector and pure sinusoidal AC signal source, which has the advantages of high precision, strong anti-environmental light ability, maintenance-free, compatible with other optical sensors (light, ultraviolet radiation, total radiation), etc. Can be widely used in meteorology, agriculture, municipal, transportation and other industries. The sensor is designed with low power consumption and can be applied to unattended observation stations in the field.
