Solar Sensors
Enhance comfort and interior well-being in commercial and luxury vehicles with multi-zone climate control with the FORVIA HELLA Solar Sensors.
With new safety regulations like the Direct Vision Standard in European countries, vehicle manufacturers are required to reduce blind spots, often leading to increased cabin glass. This design change can cause faster cabin heating.
Positioned centrally on the dashboard, the solar sensor precisely measures solar radiation intensity across different areas of the vehicle to ensure precise climate control adjustments. The Solar Sensor, with its reliable LIN communication, represents an advanced solution for energy-efficient climate management in the next generation of commercial vehicles.
