HAIL SENSOR

EXTREMELY ROBUST AND RELIABLE ACOUSTIC HAIL SENSOR

The HDI sensor measures the impact of individual hailstones on a stainless-steel disc using a special acoustic detector, signal processing and calculation. The sensing surface is a 200 mm diameter omnidirectional head, containing the electronics of the system.
The HDI can detect hailstones between 0.5 and 7.5 cm and up to 25 hits per second. Comparable to so-called disdrometry, it can distinguish between 15 size-classes. The size distribution is reported as percentage of all detected impacts according to classification table.
