Description

The Dragino WSS-24 is a professional meteorological sensor specifically designed for the qualitative detection of rain and snow. Utilizing advanced sensing surfaces, it provides immediate status updates to identify if precipitation is occurring. As a critical component of the Dragino Weather Station Solution, the WSS-24 bridges outdoor environmental events to LoRaWAN® networks via the WSC2-L processor, enabling automated responses such as closing greenhouse vents or triggering industrial safety protocols during hazardous weather.

Core Capabilities

Precipitation Identification Reliably detects the presence of both rainfall and snowfall to provide immediate environmental status.
Integrated Heating Automatic heating function prevents snow accumulation and icing on the sensor surface for 24/7 uptime.
Standard RS485 Utilizes the robust Modbus RS485 protocol for noise-free digital communication over long distances.
High Durability Rugged design operates reliably in high-humidity (up to 90% RH) and extreme temperature environments.

Primary Applications

• Smart Agriculture: Detect rain start-times to automatically pause irrigation or close protective coverings in fruit orchards.
• Infrastructure Safety: Trigger alerts for snow buildup on warehouse roofs or icing conditions on industrial transport lanes.
• Weather Forecasting: Provide real-time data for local meteorological networks and remote climate research stations.

Technical Integration

The WSS-24 is designed for seamless operation with the Dragino WSC2-L main process unit. This integration allows the RS485 data to be transmitted periodically over LoRaWAN® to platforms such as The Things Stack or ChirpStack. It supports a wide DC input range of 12-24V, making it compatible with various solar and industrial power supplies.
