- Remote access and a graph of measurement data history allow you to check whether it was raining and when the last rainfall occurred
- The ability to set a notification on a mobile device about rain
- The connection with other automation controllers allows e.g. to close the roof windows by sending information to the BleBox shutterBox or to turn off the need to water the garden with the BleBox switchBoxDC controller.
- An additional logic output allows the sensor to be connected to other automation systems
- Compact size and functional housing with IP55 tightness class allow for installation in a convenient place, both with screws and mounting tape
A dedicated application for mobile devices - wBox allows you to read an interactive graph and the annual history of measurements. This allows you to check when the last rain occurred, and with remote access you can check if it is currently raining. Data can also be exported to a file. In the application, it is also possible to send a notification about the beginning of rain, you will always have time to hide the laundry or secure sensitive belongings.
The rainSensor sensor after detecting rainfall can wirelessly send an order to 30 other BleBox devices. In conjunction with the BleBox shutterBox driver, it allows you to automatically close the windows or use switchBoxDC to turn off the solenoid valves so as not to water the garden during rain. In addition, the sensor is equipped with a wired logic output that allows you to connect rainSensor with other building automation elements that do not have WiFi wireless connectivity.
Before starting the installation of the device, remember to disconnect the power supply in the circuit by turning off the appropriate fuse or by removing the power cord from the socket. The controller should be installed in a place protected against accidental damage. The sensor is equipped with three wires.
