Laser Snow Depth Sensor – Optical Non-Contact Measurement, ±1mm Accuracy
High-precision laser snow depth sensor for real-time monitoring of snow accumulation. Ideal for road weather systems, infrastructure safety, and environmental monitoring.
This optical laser snow depth sensor is designed for accurate, non-contact measurement of snow accumulation in outdoor environments. Using a red laser diode, the sensor measures the distance to the snow surface and calculates depth with high precision, making it ideal for critical monitoring applications.
With a measurement range of 0.05 to 1.5 metres and resolution down to 1mm, the sensor provides reliable and repeatable data for road safety systems, meteorological stations, and infrastructure monitoring.
The unit supports multiple output options including RS485, RS232, 4–20mA, and 0–5V, enabling seamless integration with PLCs, RTUs, SCADA platforms, and cloud-based monitoring systems.
Designed for harsh environments, the IP65-rated housing ensures durability in snow, rain, and extreme temperatures. Its low power consumption and robust construction make it suitable for remote and long-term deployments.
