WINDSHIELD MOUNTED RAIN SENSOR

Senses rain on windshield and turns wipers on
Automatically turns wipers on to the appropriate speed
Manual override function

Highly-versatile device for automatic wiping of vehicle windscreen when it is wet due to moisture, raindrops or even mud. It works by reflecting harmonious light beams within a windscreen. When raindrops fall onto windscreen, this harmony is disturbed, creating a drop in the light beam intensity. The system then activates the wipers to operate in fully automatic mode. The amount of raindrops (measured in milliliters) will automatically determine how fast and frequent the wiper will operate (depending on your vehicle's wiper settings). Most vehicle wipers operate in 3 different modes: Intermittent (low speed and low frequency), slow (low speed and medium frequency) and fast (high speed and high frequency). The sensor field (a thin film) mounts on the inside of windshield. Harness connects sensor to control module that mounts under dashboard. Control module wires into wiper motor. The 10 milliseconds response time lessens the risk of an accident by allowing for quicker reaction when sudden splashes of water (due to puddles) totally 'blind' the driver. Sensor also reduces driver's burden of distractions (heavy traffic, bad weather, dangerous road conditions and fatigue). A detection of 0.005 milliliters of water is possible so trailing a wet car is no longer a nuisance. Features include: automatic wiper frequency, intelligent wiper speed control and auto tuning for different windscreen. Kit includes: control module, sensor module, lens module, relay module, tinted film, bracket, fuse, cable, screws and bungs. Note: In case of faulty operation during use, especially in the rain, immediately turn off the device and operate the wipers manually. Installation requires cutting and splicing wires at the wiper motor. Instructions included.
