The HSS range of visibility sensors are used to automatically switch / adjust warning systems such as lights and foghorns on and off ONLY when necessary, whenever fog, rain, smoke or dust lowers the visibility to a user definable level.

The sensor can be located at the base or on the top of the turbine or even a short distance from it. Being a forward scatter sensor it is far easier to site and not prone to the interference that back-scatter sensors experience.

On smaller wind farms you can use a single sensor but on larger farms it may be necessary to have one on each corner of the wind farm.

 

l    to automatical switch warning systems we recommend the VF-500.

l    to adjusting warning systems we recommend the VPF-710.
