Implementación de un Sistema Electrónico de Monitoreo Autosustentable para la Difusión de Indices de Radiación Solar en la Espoch.

Abstract

The electronic monitoring system automatic self-sustaining is developed for spreading levels of solar radiation in the ESPOCH at the Informatics and Electronics Faculty, for which an investigation about levels UV radiation and the color scale established by OMS for your identification. Developed it an electronic system data acquisition based on an Arduino controller, which takes values of UV radiation’s sensor called TOCON E2 and displays it on prototype in the corresponding colors also provides access to them online data through the website www.infosolarespoch.com designed on the WordPress platform, using the wireless communication network with XBee cards established between the controller and sensor connected to the server. The Infosolar prototype is self-sustaining, its operation does not depend on a connection to a power grid It uses solar energy through the implementation of an autonomous photovoltaic system that is integrated for two solar panels, a controller and a battery, works only in the hours where there are sunlight and therefore has a shaped by a relay and a LDR for ignition and automatic shutdown at 6 am and 18H30 pm respectively circuit. By implementing a system to alert people about the rate of UV radiation it was observed that most of the polytechnic community shows interest about how damaging that can be sunlight for skin health, with fuzzy data analysis it measured in the last six months shows that the maximum UV indices between 7 to 11 are presented between 10 am and 14:30 pm so it is necessary to use additional sunscreen during this time of day to avoid diseases such as skin cancer caused by prolonged exposure to the sun without proper protection.
