Light Sensor Module
Overview
The Light Sensor Module provides multi-spectrum light analysis for industrial safety and process control, combining visible light, UV, IR, color and spectral sensing. It enables compliance monitoring, quality inspection, and environmental assessment across a broad range of wavelengths from ultraviolet through near-infrared.
Features
- Visible light (lux, wide dynamic range)
- UV-A/UV-B monitoring
- IR temperature via non-contact sensor (optional)
- RGB color with IR blocking filter
- 10-channel spectral sensing (violet to NIR)
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Lux range | 0.01 - 120,000 lux |
| UV-A range | 280 - 400 nm |
| Spectral channels | 10 (415 - 940 nm) |
| Color output | RGB + clear + IR |
| IR temperature range | -40 to +380 C (optional) |
| Dynamic range | 1:1,000,000 |
| Interface | RS-485 (Modbus RTU) |
| Supply voltage | 5 V (from Edge backplane) |
Applications
- Workplace lighting compliance and emergency lighting validation
- UV exposure safety monitoring
- Process control for light-sensitive manufacturing
- Color quality and batch uniformity checks
- Spectral analysis for material characterization
Edge Integration
Connects to the Edge via RS-485. Auto-discovery registers capabilities; thresholds and sampling are configurable in the web UI.
