===== Operation =====

The sensor uses the forward scatter measuring method to determine the meteorological optical range. 

The transmitter on one side emits light which is scattered by particles in the air. The receiver on the other side receives the share of the light which is scattered at an angle 39° to 51°. The intensity of the received light is used to calculate the meteorological optical range.

The unique design ensures that the output is both accurate and reliable in all weather conditions and will not be influenced by local lights sources, even those that flash.

With a measuring range of 10 m to 40 km the sensor is suitable for use in road and aviation applications as well as meteorological observation networks. Whilst the measurement accuracy easily exceeds that specified by ICAO for visibility sensors used in METAR and RVR applications.

Heating of the optical windows and sensor hoods is provided as standard allowing use in the harshest of conditions. Both optical windows are monitored for contamination and the visibility output is automatically compensated to reduce maintenance requirements.


===== Advantanges =====

  * Compact forward scatter design
  * Not affected by local lights
  * Easily installed by one person
  * Hood heating for use in extreme environments
  * Flexible integration into control system
  * openWIS compatible

===== Application =====

~~SNIPPET_O1737059942~~en:snippets:datasheet:application~~
Tunnels are important infrastructure elements in road networks and facilitate the connection of regions. 

Environmental conditions in tunnels are influenced by fog, particles and emissions and need to be monitored to protect people on their passage through the tunnel from danger and impacts on their health. Accidents in tunnels, and particularly fires, can have dramatic consequences and can prove extremely costly in terms of human life, increased congestion, pollution and repair costs. At every time people in the tunnel need to be supplied with breathable air and sufficient visibility.

Since 1990 JES Elektrotechnik GmbH develops, installs and maintains systems to monitor air characteristics and lighting conditions in tunnels. Our systems are robust, durable and resistant against the corrosive atmosphere in a tunnel. They operate reliably and have a high accuracy in measurement. 

All systems fulfil the requirements of the EC guideline 2004/54/EC (Minimum safety requirements for tunnels in the trans-European road network) and the more detailed national guidelines and provisions:

  * Austria: RVS 09.02 Tunnelausrüstung
  * Germany: RABT Richtlinien für die Ausstattung und den Betrieb von Straßentunneln
  * Switzerland: ASTRA Richtlinien und Fachhandbuch Betriebs- und Sicherheitsausrüstungen (BSA)

Our range of products for tunnel covers systems for monitoring of

  * Visibility (extractive or in-situ) 
  * Toxic gases like CO, NO, NO<sub>2</sub> (extractive or in-situ)
  * Air velocity, direction and temperature
  * Luminance (access, threshold and interior zone)
  * Illuminance
