【 Model recommendation: TH-DW1, a manufacturer of meteorological and environmental monitoring instruments and equipment. Yunjing Tianhe supports customized services for merchants. You can rest assured that the equipment is selected from Shandong Yunjing Tianhe. 】 Tunnel brightness detector - real-time monitoring of changes in brightness outside the tunnel, automatic adjustment of lighting intensity inside the tunnelThe brightness detector outside the tunnel is the core equipment of the tunnel lighting system. By monitoring the natural light brightness outside the tunnel entrance or exit in real time, it provides accurate data for adjusting the lighting inside the tunnel, ensuring smooth light transition, improving driving safety, and achieving energy conservation and consumption reduction. Mainly based on the photoelectric effect for work. When external light shines on the sensor of the detector, the photoelectric components inside the sensor (such as silicon photodiodes or phototransistors) will produce changes in current or voltage, which are proportional to the intensity of the light. By measuring the changes in these currents or voltages, the detector can calculate the brightness value outside the tunnel. Detectors typically use special optical filters to separate the visible light band, avoiding interference from infrared or ultraviolet radiation and ensuring the accuracy of measurement data. Real time monitoring continuously captures the continuous changes in natural light intensity in the tunnel entrance area, fully records the brightness fluctuations outside the tunnel caused by day night alternation and weather changes, and establishes a reliable data foundation for lighting regulation.

Product Overview:

Highway tunnels are special sections of highways, with narrow spatial environments, large variations in lighting, and unclear visibility as a special tubular structure. Unlike the bright and spacious roads outside the tunnel, the process of vehicles entering and passing through the tunnel is a process of entering from the bright into the black hole, and then moving from the black hole to the bright. The process of transitioning from light to dark or from dark to light requires an adaptation process. During this adaptation process, drivers find it difficult to identify road targets or objects inside the tunnel, resulting in visual psychological barriers or obstacles that make driving appear unsafe. The purpose of tunnel lighting is to create a good working visual environment quality inside the tunnel, ensuring that vehicles traveling during the day and night can safely approach, pass through, and pass through the tunnel at the designed speed.

Tunnel light intensity detector is an efficient lighting control system designed to address visual adaptation issues caused by differences in brightness and darkness inside and outside tunnels. In response to the requirements for lighting control in domestic highway tunnels, our company has developed an in tunnel illumination detector and an out of tunnel brightness detector to meet market demands. Its overall design can meet the requirements of harsh outdoor working environments, with high reliability and low maintenance, microprocessor technology, digital operation, and easy installation and debugging. This product aims to improve the scientific and energy efficiency of tunnel lighting by accurately measuring the brightness of the tunnel entrance and automatically adjusting the internal lighting, ensuring driving safety requirements and energy-saving effects, while complying with the requirements of the "Design Specification for Highway Tunnel Ventilation and Lighting".

Application Scenario:

1. Monitoring and adjustment: The brightness detector outside the tunnel is used in conjunction with the illuminance detector inside the tunnel. The detector outside the tunnel monitors the real-time changes in the intensity of the light outside the tunnel and adjusts the lighting intensity inside the tunnel to ensure a smooth transition of light inside and outside the tunnel, reducing visual impact for drivers entering and exiting the tunnel and improving driving safety.

2. Energy saving optimization: dynamically adjust the lighting power inside the tunnel based on the natural light intensity outside the tunnel, avoiding excessive lighting during the day or insufficient lighting at night, achieving precise allocation of lighting resources, reducing tunnel operating costs, and achieving energy-saving goals.

3. Safety warning: When weather conditions cause a sudden drop in brightness or other abnormal situations outside the tunnel, emergency lighting plans can be activated in advance, and variable information boards and other devices can be used to remind drivers to slow down and ensure driving safety.

Product Features:

1. There is a good linear relationship between brightness and photocurrent, and they can respond promptly to changes in light.
