RS485 Ambient Light Sensor for Accurate Lux Monitoring in Outdoor Environments: Industrial-grade illumination sensor with wide range and waterproof housing.
The Waterproof Digital Ambient Light Sensor is a durable and adaptable gadget that measures light intensity in a variety of situations, from 0 to 200,000 Lux. It uses the Modbus-RTU 485 communication protocol and is supplied by a DC 5-32V broad voltage supply, allowing for simple integration with systems like as the Arduino through suitable expansion boards.
With an IP68 waterproof classification, the sensor can endure total submersion, making it suitable for use in both indoor and outdoor applications such as weather stations, greenhouses, outdoor lighting, and automobile smart lights. The high precision (±5%), wide measuring range, and durable construction make it a dependable choice for demanding environments.
IP68 Waterproof Design
The sensor is completely waterproof, fulfilling the IP68 standard, and may be submerged in water without causing damage. This makes it appropriate for use in tough outdoor locations such as weather stations, greenhouses, and automotive applications, assuring consistent performance even in damp or humid circumstances.
Wide Range and High Accuracy
With a measuring range of 0-200,000 Lux and a resolution of 0.01 Lux, the sensor gives accurate light intensity readings in a variety of conditions, from dark indoor settings to brilliant outdoor environments. The ±5% precision ensures dependable data for crucial applications such as monitoring plant development and controlling lights.
Easy Integration and Compatibility
The sensor supports the Modbus-RTU 485 protocol and may be readily connected to Arduino and other microcontroller platforms using extension boards such as the TTL to RS485 module and the Gravity: Active Isolated RS485 to UART Signal Adapter. Its simple wiring and wide voltage power supply (DC 5-32V) make it easy to use and adapt to a variety of configurations.
