Handy Size Visibility Sensor

With our Handy Size Visibility Sensor, visibility*1 measurement under various atmospheric conditions, -such as fogs, rains, snows, is possible.

When a visibility disturbance are caused by a blizzard or a heavy rain, poor visual field can lead to hazards in some situations, for instance in driving, or in working out-door.
With our light, cost-friendly Handy Size Visibility Sensor, visibility status can be measured and monitored easily.

Specifications

Handy Size Visibility Sensor <3 models>

  • MiniBSV(Standard)・・・Calculating visibility by optical measurement method
  • MiniBSV 10K・・・MiniBSV with extended visibility calculation range, 10m…10km
  • MiniBSV FAST(for blizzard)・・・For indoor installation. Measurement area and measurement time are improved from outdoor models

 

Visibility is easily measured with Handy Size Visibility Sensor just by connecting to a PC. The product is ideal both for stationary use and for mobile use, as it is compact and light-weight, and its measurement data can be stored in your computer
The product is compact, cost-friendly, and easily incorporated. This allows it to excellently play a part as a sensor in constructing systems for fog detection, blizzard detection, heavy rain detection and so on.

 

The product irradiates light to a front space and detects with its sensor the backscattering light from backscattering particles(f.e. fogs) nearby, then calculate visibility. Thus, no obstacles around the product is prerequisite.
