The RS485 Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR) Sensor excels in measuring the spectrum of light essential for plant photosynthesis. By operating within the 400-700nm range, it effectively translates sunlight into a voltage signal that's directly tied to radiance intensity. With sensitivity that aligns with the cosine of the light's incident angle, the sensor assures precise readings, making it crucial for understanding plant growth needs.
Its wide DC voltage range of 5-30V makes it versatile for integration, seamlessly working with systems like Arduino through its RS485 support with Modbus-RTU protocol. This design facilitates straightforward communication and data gathering, ensuring smooth deployment in various technological environments.
Incorporating high-precision photoelectric components, the sensor adeptly captures photosynthetically active radiation within its specified spectrum. Its cosine corrector enhances measurement accuracy regardless of light angle variations, providing indispensable data for environmental monitoring and agricultural applications.
Durability is a key asset of this sensor, featuring a robust metal aluminum shell and an IP67 rating for protection against harsh weather elements. The dust cover, specially treated to resist environmental interference, prolongs the sensor's operational stability, promising reliable performance outdoors.
