Rain Drop Moisture Detection Sensor Module for Arduino

Raindrop sensor module is used for rain detection. It is also for measuring rainfall intensity. The module includes a rain board and a control board that is separate for more convenience. It has a power indicator LED and an adjustable sensitivity though a potentiometer. The module is based on the LM393 op-amp. It includes a printed circuit board(control board) that collects the raindrops. As raindrops are collected on the circuit board, they create paths of parallel resistance that are measured via the op-amp. The lower the resistance (or the more water), the lower the voltage output. Conversely, the less water, the greater the output voltage on the analog pin. A completely dry board, for example, will cause the module to output five volts.

Features:

• Adopts high quality of RF-04 double sided material.
• Area: 5cm x 4cm nickel plate on side.
• Anti oxidation, anti-conductivity, with long use time.
• Comparator output signal clean waveform is good, driving ability, over 15mA.
• Potentiometer adjusts the sensitivity.
• Working voltage 5V.
• Output format: Digital switching output (0 and 1) and analog voltage output AO.
• With bolt holes for easy installation.
• Small board PCB size: 3.2cm x 1.4cm.
• Uses a wide voltage LM393 comparator.
