Visibility Ambient Light Sensor Model 6300

Features

With serial outputs, the Model 6300 can also be used as a stand-alone ambient light sensor.

The physical package for the sensor is the same proven design already installed in over 1,000 ASOS Visibility Sensor suites worldwide. Both window/hood and electronic heaters are employed for low temperature and blowing precipitation conditions.

Extensive self-diagnostics include processor, memory and heater diagnostics as well as window fouling conditions.

These sensors are assembled around a compact and sturdy corrosion resistant housing which can be easily installed on the Visibility Sensor support mast. The standard unit incorporates optics/hood heaters to prevent condensation on the optic elements and to prevent freezing precipitation on the hood. A thermostatically operated enclosure heater may also be separately powered for extremely low temperature operation.

Belfort Visibility Sensors have earned a leading reputation with the world’s foremost meteorological and transportation organizations. The Model 6300 Ambient Light Sensor brings the same high reliability technology to Runway Visual Range applications.
