WiFi-501-TP

The WiFi-500 Sensor Series of wireless data loggers collect temperature or temperature/humidity readings and transmit the logged data over a wireless network. Wireless transmissions reduce the need to physically collect devices and connect them to a computer. Devices can be configured wirelessly using either the WiFi Sensor Software on a PC or using the Cloud interface. Ideal for site monitoring, HVAC, agriculture/horticulture, food industry, temperature/humidity-sensitive environments, and many other applications. All Cloud features are available on web-enabled PCs, smart phones, tablets, and Mac® computers. All devices comply with the IEEE 802.11b WiFi specification, and support bandwidths up to 11 Mbps.

The WiFi-501-TP sensor measures the temperature of the environment in which the probe is situated. Data is transmitted wirelessly via a WiFi network to a PC and viewed using a free software package. During configuration the sensor will search for an existing wireless network while physically connected to the PC. It can then be placed anywhere within range of the network. If the sensor temporarily loses connectivity with the network, it will log readings until it is able to communicate again with the PC application (max 120 days at 10 second sample interval). The range of the sensor can be increased by using WiFi extenders. The probe can be used in a wide range of temperature situations e.g. manufacturing processes, cold storage and hot storage. This WiFi-501-TP is a low powered battery device. When configured using typical sampling periods (e.g. once every 60 seconds) the sensor will operate for over one year. The battery can then be recharged via a PC or USB +5 V wall adapter using the USB lead provided.
