The installed device may be specified as optimised for either rain, frost
or dew. The rain sensing version incorporates a heater to dry the surface once
rain has ceased, and also to eliminate it’s sensitivity to the formation of dew.
The sensor will respond to a single 1 mm diameter droplet of distilled
water.
