Product Manual
Back
The YOUNG Sentry™ Visibility Sensor measures atmospheric visibility (meteorological optical range) by determining the amount of light scattered by particles in the air (smoke, dust, haze, fog, rain, & snow). Based on the proven field experience of the NWS and FAA, the sensor uses a “look down” geometry to reduce window contamination and clogging from blowing snow. Optional thermostatically controlled external hood heaters are available for additional protection in extreme environments.
