Supercooled, FZRA, FZDZ, FZFG, and black ice. Our "Precipitation Analyzer" detects and accurately quantifies precipitation.
Our cutting edge technology detects and
measures different precipitation types, especially supercooled precipitation. Thanks to the unique design with a pyramid-shaped measuring surface made of special ceramic material and resistant glass coating, we detect precise surface temperatures. The sensor uses as measurement principles the analysis of temperature peaks to detect the heat of crystallization and the different dielectric properties of water and ice. This enables very accurate discrimination and quantification of precipitation incidents, including phase changes. The analyzer is ideal for early warning systems in traffic applications, on roads, bridges, airports, marine and industrial applications where icing poses a safety risk. With its advanced method for early detection of supercooled precipitation, the device contributes to efficient winter maintenance and timely initiation of
safety measures. The device was developed and tested with the German Weather Service
(Deutscher Wetter Dienst DWD) for use at airports.
Various telegrams can be selected via RS 485 in ASCII format. We recommend the
Thies Clima data logger "DLU-E", commercially available serial data loggers are also possible.
