Visibility Sensors Suitable For Marine Use
This section covers monitoring the visibility at coastal marine navigation safety installations such as lighthouses, harbours, marking points and platforms etc
The HSS sensors have been used for over 20 years in marine applications throughout the world to:
- automatically switch warning light systems and foghorns on and off ONLY when necessary during low visibility, we recommend the HSS VF-500 visibility sensors.
- intelligently adjust warning light intensity levels during low visibility, we recommend the HSS VPF-710 visibility sensor.
Application examples:

Offshore application information (PDF)
Why are the HSS visibility sensors suitable for marine use?
due to the the robust construction and salt dip brazing which means:
- there is no corrosion and weakness of welds
(which is experienced by other sensors).
- they are reliable - which is required in such critical applications.
- low level of maintenance is required.
