Product Description
The ceiling-mounted Wireless Daylight Sensor is wireless,
powered by natural light, and uses the solar cell to measure
outside illumination to control open loop dimming systems.
Every minute the wireless daylight sensor measures the current
light level via the solar cell.
If the change since last transmission is >50 lux it will
immediately transmit an RF signal including the current
measurement value. Otherwise there will be a heartbeat
transmission after 20-30min.
In addition the device provides a light test mode which can be
used to find a suitable position for installation.
Features Include:
Communicates wirelessly with other devices using the
EnOcean wireless standard
Harvests ambient solar energy to power the sensor and
wireless communication
Measures light level via the solar cell
Mounts easily on any ceiling material
Enables daylight harvesting in individual fixtures or zones
controlled by TWR-D10 or other open loop dimming systems

* Natural bright light (2000 lux) can be temporarily used to significantly
shorten startup charge times. Specified lux values are for typical fluorescent
lighting. Lux level requirements for LED and other types may vary. For lux
reference, OSHA standards require a minimum of 323 lux for office areas.
