somfy Rain sensor 9016345 Ondeis

The capacitive sensor measures types of precipitation such as rain and snow and is compatible with all control units that have an input for potential-free sensors. This allows for easy integration into existing systems. A supplied mounting bracket enables simple wall or pole installation. Additionally, the sensor cable and the power supply connection cable are easy to install. The sensor is resistant to contamination, achieved through a film that protects the circuit paths from oxidation. It responds quickly and accurately to precipitation and features a self-regulating heater that prevents the accumulation of snow or ice, ensuring functionality at low temperatures. The sensor's housing is not only visually appealing, compact, and UV-stable, but also protected against splashes according to protection class IP 44. The technical specifications state that the sensor operates with a supply voltage of 100-230 AC at a frequency of 50-60 Hz and is designed for a temperature range of -20 to 60 degrees Celsius. It falls under protection class II and has a potential-free switching contact that can operate at a minimum of 30 mA DC or 230 AC and a maximum of 30 A DC or 230 AC. With a maximum heating power of under watts and dimensions of 115 x 85 x 100 mm (width x height x depth), the sensor is ideally suited for weather monitoring across a wide range of applications.
