Product Advantages of the Lufft WS100 Radar Precipitation Sensor

Absolutely maintenance-free and low-energy 24-hour operation

• Maintenance-free operation through ingenious technology without any moving parts
• Energy-saving sensor thanks to the improved ECO mode (0.4 VA)
• Extended heating capacity allows operation in summer as well as in winter
• Improved heating power with lower power consumption: Sensor heating integrated directly on the dome wall, power consumption with 9 VA heating.
• Very long service life and high operational reliability due to high quality components.

Every second counts: Precise precipitation measurement from the first drop

• Extremely fast measurement from the first raindrop
• Detection of precipitation and rainfall (rain, freezing rain, hail, snow and sleet)
• Detection of drop size (0.3 to 5 mm)
• Differentiation between 11 classifications of drop sizes
• Sensor provides rain intensity with higher resolution starting from 0.01 mm
• Improved measurement accuracy thanks to patented self-developed radar module

Precision sensor with radar technology designed for all industrial needs

• Precipitation sensor with radar technology: 24GHz Doppler radar
• Use of a lens for focusing the measuring beam Industry-wide application: hydrology, agriculture, building automation, metrology, winter service, airport and traffic control
• Particularly suitable for places or areas which are difficult to access due to being maintenance-free
• No maintenance or calibration, no additional hidden costs.

Designed for all common data loggers and data acquisition systems

• Multiple and simultaneous interfaces for data output and communication
• SDI-12 and RS-485 Modbus for reliable data transmission.
