Description
The brightness sensor is a light sensor for building automation. It is protected against voltage surges and transients and suitable for continuous use. The measurement of the intensity of illumination is done with the precise and long-term stable photo diode with industrial performance data. The processing of the measurement signal is made by state-of-the-art sensor technology with an ASIC. The high sensitivity over a wide range of illumination strengths as well as the wiring make the brightness sensor can be used even under very bright conditions. The three-point calibration results over a wide range of brightness high accuracy for typical control tasks. Other advantages of the brightness sensor, the setting option between DC or AC supply voltage as well as the output of the measured value as a 0-10 V standard signal. A variety of application possibilities arise from the determination of the brightness for dynamic control of devices in the home and building automation, such as the use as sun sensor, building automation, dark/light switching operations, Brightness sensor for rain-proof weather stations, Brightness sensor for switching consumers in applications with solar modules, Brightness sensor for use in direct sunlight.
