MONNIT Industrial Wireless Air Velocity Sensor
MONNIT Industrial Wireless Air Velocity Sensor is an industrial wireless air velocity sensor from Monnit's ALTA range, designed for monitoring airflow and air speed. Operating on the 433 MHz ALTA wireless platform, it is suited to applications where air movement needs to be monitored without running a dedicated wired connection to the sensor. The industrial version includes mounting hardware, a pre-installed 3 V industrial battery and a standard SMA dipole antenna, making it suitable for integration into wireless monitoring systems.
The MONNIT Industrial Wireless Air Velocity Sensor provides wireless monitoring of air velocity for industrial environments. Its pressure-based sensing arrangement measures the pressure difference between two ports to determine airflow speed. The Monnit product range identifies this model as an industrial air velocity sensor, while the manufacturer lists the ALTA 433 MHz radio frequency for this specific part number.
The industrial enclosure and wireless design make the sensor useful where monitoring points may be located away from convenient wiring infrastructure. The supplied mounting hardware and pre-installed 3 V industrial battery simplify deployment, while the standard SMA dipole antenna provides the specified wireless interface.
How it works
- The sensor monitors the pressure difference between its two pressure ports.
- The pressure measurement is used to determine air velocity.
- Measurements are transmitted wirelessly using the ALTA 433 MHz radio platform.
- The sensor can form part of a compatible Monnit wireless monitoring system.
Monnit's SKU documentation identifies PS-AV as the air velocity configuration and IN as the industrial enclosure option.
Why choose this product
- Wireless monitoring: Reduces the need to run a dedicated signal cable to the sensing point.
- Industrial configuration: Designed as part of Monnit's industrial sensor range.
- 433 MHz ALTA connectivity: Uses the ALTA wireless frequency specified for this model.
- Battery supplied: The product page specifies a pre-installed 3 V industrial battery.
- Straightforward deployment: Mounting hardware and a standard SMA dipole antenna are included.
Benefits
The main benefit is the ability to monitor air movement wirelessly at locations where installing additional cabling may be inconvenient. It can help provide airflow data for remote monitoring systems without requiring the measurement point itself to be directly wired into the monitoring infrastructure.
