Dual Sensor for Brightness and Temperature
AP 254/02
Description
The Dual Sensor AP 254/02 sends ambient light level
and outdoor temperature values to the bus.
The sensor is designed for use in the following
applications:
Multi-staged lighting controls
Temperature controls. For example, control of
electric heat for frost protection
Awning/blind/shutter controls The solar protection channel is used for automatic
Systems with visualization of light level and control of solar protection equipment. The automatic
outdoor temperature control can be started and stopped by an object, such
as sun control, or by a dusk/dawn ambient light level
The device offers four universal channels (A, B, D, E), threshold. Up to three light level thresholds control the
and one solar protection channel (C), which evaluate height of the blinds and the angle of the slats. The light
