Product Description

1. Description

JW-XH-GF(LC15) laser snow depth multi point monitor is designed for real time snow accumulation measurement in harsh winter environments. With laser phase measurement, automatic patrol scanning, Bluetooth communication, 4G or RS485 data upload, and cloud platform integration, it provides accurate snow depth data for roads, bridges, photovoltaic sites, airports, agriculture, and scenic areas.

2. Product Overview

JW-XH-GF(LC15) laser snow depth multi point monitor measures the depth of unmelted snow on observation surfaces by using laser phase measurement technology. Compared with fixed point snow depth sensors, this model supports automatic multi point patrol monitoring, allowing users to collect snow depth data across different angles and positions.

The device is suitable for outdoor snow monitoring systems that require wider coverage, dynamic measurement, and remote data management. It can rotate horizontally from 0 to 360° and vertically from minus 85° to 20°, supporting up to 180 automatic patrol points. With IP65 protection, automatic low temperature heating, and stable Modbus communication, it is built for long term deployment in cold and snowy conditions.
