Product Description
The Raindrops Detection Sensor Module is an essential tool for high-precision weather monitoring and automated moisture detection. This versatile system features a two-part design: a large, durable collection board coated with anti-oxidation nickel for long-term outdoor exposure, and a separate control module based on the LM393 voltage comparator. It operates on a resistive principle where the resistance of the sensing pad decreases as more raindrops bridge the conductive paths. Whether you are building an automated car wiper system, a smart greenhouse, or a rain-triggered window closure for a smart home, this module provides reliable, real-time data for both digital triggers and analogue intensity measurement.
Detailed Key Features
Dual Output Capability: Provides a continuous Analogue Output (AO) for measuring rainfall intensity and a Digital Switch Output (DO) for simple high/low rain detection.
Corrosion-Resistant Sensing Pad: The collection board is treated with high-quality nickel plating to fight oxidation and ensure excellent electrical conductivity over a long service life.
Onboard Sensitivity Calibration: Features an integrated potentiometer that allows you to fine-tune the digital trigger threshold to suit different environmental conditions.
Visual Status Indicators: Equipped with a power indicator LED and a digital output signal LED, allowing for quick visual debugging during installation.
Modular Versatility: The separate sensing pad and control board design allows for the electronics to be safely housed in a dry enclosure while the pad is exposed to the elements.
