PCE Instruments PCE-FST-100-2003-LS Industrial Light Sensor 4-20 mA, 0-65k Lux, IP65

The Light Sensor is ideal for monitoring light intensities in greenhouses, industrial facilities or smart farming systems, enabling precise control of lighting and energy use. The Light Sensor detects light intensities from 0 to 65,535 lx and delivers the measured values via a digital RS-485 Modbus RTU output. The accuracy is ±7% FS at 25°C / 77°F, the response time is ≤1 s, the supply voltage is 10 to 30V DC, and the robust, moisture-protected housing allows for indoor and outdoor use.

The Light Sensor is primarily used by greenhouse operators, environmental researchers, and companies in the smart farming sector, as well as industrial plants that want to reliably monitor light intensities and implement automated controls.
