The IRSS88 precipitation sensor is based on a light barrier principle using infrared technology and has a detection area of approx. 120 x 25 mm, which is sufficient to reliably detect even low precipitation densities with the smallest particle sizes. Its highly sensitive microelectronics are insensitive to any kind of interfering light. The all-metal housing ensures effective shielding against HF radiation.
