Description

The brightness sensor is a light sensor for the building automation. It is
protected against overvoltage and transients and is suitable for conti
nuous operation.
Further aspects are the possible choice between AC or DC supply and
the output of the measurement as a 0…10 V standard signal.
A variety of possible applications result from the determination of the
brightness for the dynamic control of devices - like a sun sensor - in the
home and building automation.

For the measurement of the illumination level a precise and long-term
stable photodiode with industrial performance data is used. The pro
cessing of the measured signal is done through advanced sensor tech­nology. The high sensitivity in a wide range of luminance intensity as
well as the wiring make it possible to use the sensor under very bright
lighting conditions.

The three-point calibration results in a high precision over a wide range
of brightness for a good accuracy of typical control tasks.

Supply

The supply is guaranteed with a +12...24 V AC/DC voltage either direct­ly through our control systems or with an external power supply unit.

Brightness sensor with (measuring) transducer 0…10 V
0…100000 Lux

Installation of the brightness sensor

The installed sensor could be directly attached to the surface of the
combined transducer. Please have a look at the drawing where you

can see the boreholes for the xation screws. Look out for a rain-pro

tected installation.

Connection

For the connection shielded connection cables should preferentially
be used. Especially in EMI-disturbed areas this has to be taken into

-

account. The shielding has to be grounded.

Attention

Please avoid extreme mechanical and inappropriate exposure.

The device/product is not suitable for potential explosive areas and
medical-technical applications.
