Light intensity sensors are used to measure ambient illuminance in a given environment. This can have many important applications. Light directly impacts the growth of plants, so in agriculture, it can run manage farms and greenhouses more efficiently with real-time light data and analysis. Operators of electric grids and solar farms can use the data to predict the available electricity and run their operations more efficiently.
This Light Intensity Sensor (S-Light-01) is ideal for this kind of environment. It is IP66 rated, waterproof, and dustproof, and has no problem working under harsh conditions like solar farms, outdoor agricultural farms, as well as greenhouses. Each sensor is calibrated and offers high accuracy and consistency.
This sensor support two output options MODBUS-RTU RS485 protocol or analog voltage (0-2v) and can be used with a data logger conveniently.
