HOBOnode sensors monitor temperature and soil moisture conditions and wirelessly transmit the data back to your computer.Easy to deploy temperature wireless sensor
HOBOnode sensors monitor temperature and soil moisture conditions and wirelessly transmit the data back to your computer.
Features
Fast, easy deployment - sensor's compact size, integrated solar-rechargeable battery makes deployment a snap.
-40 to 212F measurement range
Software provides real-time graphs and alarms to cell phones or local PC; data can be exported for use in other programs.
150 to 300 m (500 to 1000 ft) range with clear line-of-sight. Repeaters are available to extend range.
Research-grade reliability and accuracy
Complete system requires: Receiver, Sensor, HOBOnode Viewer software. A Repeater is required for greater distances.(sold separately)
Includes bracket for convenient mounting on a pole or stake
Specifications
Measurement Range: -40° to 100°C (-40° to 212°F)
Accuracy - +/- 0.21°C from 0° to 50°C (0.38°F from 32° to 122°F) - Note: For accurate temperatures in sunlight we recommend the use of our solar radiation shield. (RS3)
Resolution - 0.025° at 25°C (0.045°F at 77°F)
Response time - 3 minutes in air moving 1m/s; 30 seconds in water
Sample rate -1 reading per minute
Battery life - 1 yr typical w/o charging; 3 yrs typical w/ solar charging
Size -16.5cm x 5cm; 3.7m cable to sensor (6.5" x 2"; 12' cable)
Memory - None in HOBOnodes; requires HOBOnode Viewer to be running for data storage.
Transmission range - 150 to 300 m (500 to 1000 ft) range with clear line-of-sight. Any obstructions such as vegetation or walls will reduce range significantly.
Wireless Data Standard - IEEE 802.15.4, 2.4 GHz ISM band (license free worldwide) - Click here for local RF Regulation Compliance
Operating Range -20° to 50°C (-4° to 122°F) - with optional Lithium Batteries: -40° to 50°C (-40° to 122°F) - Use optional Lithium Batteries in low-temerature and high-temperature applications.
Environmental rating - HOBOnodes: NEMA 6P, IP68; temperature sensor probe is rated for 1-year immersion in freshwater ≤ 50° C (122° F)
Setup/Installation:
recommend 8' x 1-1/4", schedule 40 PVC pipe for mounting (purchase through local building supply store)
for windy locations we also recommend our Guy Wire Kit (M-GWK) and ½" Stake Kit (M-SKA)
note that the HOBOnodes should not be mounted on or near metal surfaces.
The largest, most durable airline-legal carry-on available, the 1510 Pelican case provides safe and convenient transport of your HOBO data logging equipment. Watertight, crush-proof, and dust-proof.
