Sensors For All Environments
Test These First!
HRXL‑MaxSonar‑WRS
AN | PW | Serial
Specially designed and calibrated for snow depth measurement. The high gain allows users to detect snow depth changes as small as 3mm or better in real-world tests. (Stability of 1mm is common but can be disrupted by rapid temperature swings and high winds. 3mm thresholds reflect real-world results and far exceed industry standards of 7-12mm thresholds.)

SCXL‑MaxSonar‑WRS
AN | PW | Serial
Shares the same features as the HRXL-WRS sensors but adds a self-cleaning transducer to remove ice build-up that may occur in some environments. Multi-sensor installations require alternating readings between sensors.
