Solar Sensor: Description and Operation

GF83.57-P-2128CW Sun Sensor, Component Description

Component Identification:

Location
The sun sensor is located in the center of the instrument panel at the top.

Task
The sun sensor is designed in the form of a dual sun sensor and records the intensity and angle of incidence of the solar radiation on the vehicle. The interior temperature and blower output are adapted according to the intensity.

In the event of one-sided solar radiation, an appropriate temperature difference is set between the right and the left temperature control setpoints.
The sun sensor is read in discretely by the automatic air conditioning control and operating unit (N22/7).
