Technical characteristics
The SPS30 snow depth sensor is the ideal solution for determining snow depths of up to 10 meters. It takes measurements in just a few seconds and with millimeter precision.
This instrument is based on an optoelectronic distance sensor that emits visible laser light, allowing probing distances of up to 30 meters.
Unlike ultrasonic snow depth sensors, the laser distance measurement technique is independent of temperature changes.
The data collected by the sensor is accurate and reliable, and thanks to its compatibility with the Smartyplanet web platform, it can be analyzed instantly.
The snow depth sensor has a robust design that ensures proper operation in all weather conditions.
