INC 68359 Forward Scatter Sensor Set

An item that consists of a white light source and reciever. The sensor measures scattered light to determine the Meteorological Optical Range (MOR) in a determined direction. Used primarily for aeronautical purposes, but may also be used for synoptic meteorology, road and harbor.

Additional Information for Forward Scatter Sensor Set Additional Information for Forward Scatter Sensor Set

A Forward Scatter Sensor Set is a type of meteorological instrument used for measuring visibility and detecting the presence of particles in the air. It is commonly used in weather monitoring stations, airports, and other locations where accurate visibility measurements are required.

The Forward Scatter Sensor Set works by emitting a beam of light and measuring the amount of light scattered back to the sensor. By analyzing the intensity of the scattered light, the instrument can determine the visibility range and detect the presence of particles such as fog, smoke, or dust in the air.

This type of sensor set typically includes a transmitter unit that emits the light beam, a receiver unit that detects the scattered light, and a control unit that processes the data and provides visibility readings. The sensor set may also include additional features such as automatic calibration, data logging capabilities, and integration with other meteorological instruments.

In the supply group Instruments And Laboratory Equipment, the Forward Scatter Sensor Set is classified under the supply class Meteorological Instruments And Apparatus. This classification indicates that the instrument is specifically designed for meteorological applications and is used to gather data related to weather conditions.

Overall, the Forward Scatter Sensor Set is an important tool for meteorologists and weather monitoring professionals, providing accurate visibility measurements and helping to improve safety and efficiency in various industries.
