Description

CDG-15B SUNSHINE HOUR SENSOR

Overview

CDG-15B Sunshine hour sensors are important tools for weather and environmental monitoring. These sensors track how long direct sunlight shines on a certain area. They use different technologies, such as optical sensing, to find changes in light intensity and wavelength.

This helps them see when the sun shines bright enough to count as sunshine hours. Some sensors use smart algorithms to tell apart direct sunlight and diffused light. This helps ensure accurate readings.
