MONNIT Coin Cell Wireless Temperature Sensor
MONNIT Coin Cell Wireless Temperature Sensor is an ALTA wireless temperature sensor designed for remote monitoring of ambient temperatures. It is suited to commercial, industrial, equipment and environmental monitoring applications where temperature changes need to be detected remotely. Key features include 433 MHz wireless communication, ±1°Celcius accuracy, replaceable CR2032 coin-cell power, screw mounting and configurable reporting and alert thresholds.
The MONNIT Coin Cell Wireless Temperature Sensor is a compact ALTA Wireless Temperature Sensor powered by a replaceable CR2032 coin-cell battery. It uses a thermistor to measure temperature around the sensor and wirelessly transmits readings through the Monnit ALTA wireless platform.
The exact model operates at 433 MHz, which Monnit lists for its Australia and Asia-Pacific regional configurations. The standard model is supplied without an external lead and includes the wireless sensor, CR2032 coin-cell battery and mounting hardware.
For installations requiring measurement at a location away from the sensor body, Monnit offers configurations with external temperature probes; however, these should be ordered as the appropriate leaded model rather than assumed to be included with this product.
How Does It Work?
The sensor uses a thermistor to detect temperature changes. The measured temperature is processed by the sensor and transmitted wirelessly using the ALTA 433 MHz network.
A compatible Monnit gateway is required for operation. Once connected to the monitoring system, users can configure reporting behaviour and temperature thresholds, allowing temperature changes to be monitored remotely and notifications to be generated when configured limits are exceeded.
ALTA sensors also support features such as frequency-hopping wireless communication, configurable reporting and local data storage for situations where communication with a gateway is temporarily interrupted.
Why Choose this Product?
- Wireless temperature monitoring — reduces the need for frequent manual temperature checks.
- 433 MHz ALTA wireless communication — suitable for the Australian version of the product.
- Compact coin-cell design — useful where a small sensor footprint is preferred.
- ±1°Celcius accuracy — provides practical temperature monitoring for general applications.
- Replaceable CR2032 battery — allows the power source to be replaced rather than replacing the complete sensor.
- Configurable monitoring — reporting intervals and alert thresholds can be configured.
- Gateway-based remote monitoring — enables temperature information to be viewed through the Monnit monitoring ecosystem.
- Flexible installation — screw mounting and included mounting hardware simplify installation.
