HOBO Pendant® MX Temperature/Light Data Logger
The HOBO MX2202 data logger requires the HOBOmobile App and a compatible mobile device. The system requirements for the HOBOmobile app can be found at the bottom of our HOBOmobile software page.
Overview
The HOBO MX2202 waterproof temperature/light level logger leverages the power of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to deliver accurate temperature and light-level measurements straight to your iOS or Android mobile device. Designed for durability, this compact waterproof logger is ideal for measuring temperature in streams, lakes, oceans, and soil environments. Data collection in the field has never been easier!
Remotely access your data in Onset’s cloud-based HOBOlink software with the new MX Gateway. (indoor deployments)
Mounting Requirements
It is very important that the logger housing does not get distorted when mounted. For mounting these loggers to any non-flat surface, such as rebar or posts, we recommend using the Mounting Boot (BOOT-MX2201-2201). This boot is also useful for mounting loggers such that they can be easily removed for service.
Highlighted Features
- New light sensor offering more accurate light intensity readings for light in the visible light spectrum
- Convenient wireless setup and download via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)
- Large memory stores 96,000 measurements
- Waterproof to 30 meters (100 feet)
- User-replaceable battery
- Mounting tabs for fast, easy deployment
- LED alarm notifies you when temperature exceeds set threshold
- Works with Onset’s free HOBOmobile app
- ±0.5°C (±0.9°F) temperature accuracy and ±10% light accuracy typical for direct sunlight
In what environment does this data logger operate?
This data logger operates in indoor, outdoor and water environments.
