XF100A optical rain sensor
Optical rain gauges are instruments that measure precipitation using optical principles. These gauges employ laser or infrared sensing technology to calculate rainfall intensity by detecting disturbances caused when raindrops enter the sensor, such as beam scattering or obstruction. Offering instantaneous response and reliability, they provide precise precipitation measurement data and are suitable for applications including meteorological monitoring, agricultural irrigation, and urban drainage systems.

Introduct
An optical rain gauge is an instrument that uses optical sensing technology to measure precipitation. It typically works by emitting a light beam (such as a laser or infrared light) and monitoring the effect of precipitation particles (such as raindrops or snowflakes) on the light as they pass through the beam. Specifically, when raindrops or snowflakes pass through the light beam, they change the intensity or direction of the light, and the sensor uses these changes to calculate the intensity and amount of precipitation.
Structure of optical rain gauge
- Light Source: Emits light beams, typically using laser or infrared technology.
- Light Receiver: Receives light signals after interference from precipitation particles and converts them into electrical signals.
- Sensor Module: Estimates precipitation levels by analyzing changes in light signals.
- Data Processing Unit: Processes and analyzes signals, converting data into precipitation measurements.
- Display and Control Interface: Presents precipitation data and enables user system operations.
- Housing and Protective Enclosure: Provides waterproof and dustproof protection, ensuring stable operation in harsh environments.
