Phason Rain Sensor

Model: PRS
Rugged and durable, but also reliable and accurate

The Phason Rain Sensor’s advanced optical sensor uses infrared light to detect water hitting its surface. This method of detection is more sensitive and reliable than other methods, is nearly immune to false detection, and is not affected by movement and most environmental conditions.

The durable and rugged enclosure is completely sealed; there are no electronics to corrode and no openings for debris to collect.

Compatible controls

Natural Ventilation Control: NVC-2 | NVC-2-12 | NVC-2-24
Power Block: PBx-10 | PBx-11
AutoFlex Connect: AFX-CONNECT | AFXMINI-CONNECT
AutoFlex Connect II: AFX-CONNECT2 | AFXMINICONNECT2

Use case — Natural Ventilation Controls

When the Phason Rain Sensor detects rainfall, it sends a signal to the control. When the control receives the signal, it closes the configured curtains and/or actuators. After 15 minutes with no detected rainfall, the sensor signals the control to resume normal operation.
