RS485 UV Sensor for Meteorological Observation, Environmental Monitoring, and IoT Weather Station Integration
Product Introduction (pdf)
Product Introduction
The KH.GZW UV Radiation Sensor is a high-precision ultraviolet radiation monitoring device designed for continuous solar UV measurement in meteorological stations, smart agriculture systems, environmental observation networks, and scientific research applications.
Using a high-sensitivity photoelectric detector, the sensor converts ultraviolet radiation intensity into electrical signals through advanced optical detection technology and internal signal processing algorithms.
The calibrated measurement output provides reliable UV radiation data for weather monitoring, crop research, environmental studies, and solar radiation analysis.
With RS485 Modbus communication, the KH.GZW can be easily integrated into automatic weather stations, telemetry systems, SCADA platforms, and IoT-based environmental monitoring networks.
Its solid-state structure, compact design, and weather-resistant housing ensure stable long-term operation in outdoor environments with minimal maintenance.
