HSS Application Examples MARINE - HSS visibility sensors are extensively used in marine environments, particularly for the automatic activation of fog horns, warning lights and alarms when fog, rain, haze, sea-spray or smoke lowers the visibility. over 20 years use world-wide unaffected by harsh salt water environments. reliable and accurate cost-effective automated system suitable for solar power applications SUITABLE MODELS: VF-500 - analogue output - optional fog warning system for switching external equipment: - with user selectable settings for warning distance and time delays - fully automated,...

. . . why choose an HSS visibility sensor? Biral HSS sensors are used to automate visibility and present weather measurements in a wide range of critical applications, providing improved safety and reduced costs. They are well known for their durability, reliability and accuracy. An HSS sensor will provide many years of problem-free operation requiring minimal attention. The sensors use Forward Scatter Meter (FSM) technology to calculate the Meteorological Optical Range (MOR). Unmatched accuracy The combination of design, light-source, wavelength and undisturbed sample volume give Biral HSS sensors...
