MONNIT AA Battery Powered Wireless Resistance Sensor
MONNIT AA Battery Powered Wireless Resistance Sensor is a wireless resistance sensor designed to monitor passive resistive loads and transmit measurements wirelessly. It uses the 433 MHz ALTA wireless platform and a standard AA battery configuration, with a 3-foot lead. The sensor can be used for resistance monitoring, battery monitoring and interfacing with suitable passive transducers. Measurements can be monitored remotely through a compatible Monnit gateway and monitoring system, making it suitable for applications where resistance data needs to be collected without running dedicated signal wiring.
The MONNIT AA Battery Powered Wireless Resistance Sensor is a commercial wireless resistance sensor from the ALTA range. It is designed to measure resistance across a passive resistive load and transmit the resulting measurement to a compatible Monnit gateway.
The sensor is suitable for applications where a resistance value provides useful information about the condition or operation of equipment. Monnit identifies resistance monitoring, battery monitoring and transducer interfacing as example applications for this sensor type.
The specified model uses the ALTA 433 MHz wireless frequency, a standard AA power configuration and the Monnit standard AA enclosure. The manufacturer's page also identifies a 3-foot lead through the model number and product documentation.
How it works
- The sensor connects across a passive resistive load using its sensor leads.
- It measures the resistance of the connected load at the configured measurement interval or heartbeat.
- The measured resistance is processed by the sensor and transmitted wirelessly to a compatible gateway.
- Data can then be made available through Monnit's monitoring system for viewing, recording and threshold-based notifications.
Important: This is a passive resistance sensor. The sensor leads must only be connected to suitable passive resistive devices. Applying a voltage or power source to the sensor leads may damage the sensor.
Why choose this product
The MONNIT AA Battery Powered Wireless Resistance Sensor is useful when resistance needs to be monitored remotely without installing a dedicated wired measurement connection back to the monitoring point.
Its AA battery configuration provides a practical format for commercial installations, while the 433 MHz ALTA wireless platform allows measurements to be sent to a compatible gateway. The sensor can also be calibrated by the user to achieve the stated ±2% FS accuracy.
