Description
Monnit ALTA Industrial Wireless Thermocouple Sensor – 148°F (-100°C) to 752°F (400°C) THERMOCOUPLE SENSOR KTYPE FIX PROBE
The Wireless Thermocouple Sensor is available with a hardwired thermocouple or K-type connector to support various thermocouple types and ranges. The hardwired thermocouple option measures temperatures up to 400°C (752°F). The K-type connector with Probe includes a needle probe that measures temperatures up to 400°C (752°F). The sensor is programmed to sleep for a user-given time interval (heartbeat) and then wakeup
send power to the thermocouple and wait for it to stabilize
and convert the analog data
mathematically compute the temperature and transmit the data to the gateway. To stay within the abilities of the processor
the temperature is computed off a data table provided by the manufacturer.
ALTA – Leading Enterprise Grade “Internet of Things” Solutions
ALTA sensors offer 3 to 4 times the range of standard sensor platforms
extending non-line-of-sight reach to an exceptional 1
000+ feet through walls (12-14 walls typical). Using Frequency-hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) also allows ALTA sensors to have better interference immunity from other wireless devices.
Superior power management provides ALTA sensors with almost twice the battery life of Monnit’s standard wireless sensors.
- Coin cell sensors typically last 3+ years.
- AA and Industrial sensors typically last up to 10+ years.
ALTA products employ Monnit’s new Encrypt-RF™ Security (256-bit Diffie Hellman key exchange and AES-128 CBC encryption for all sensor data messages)
so security is maintained at all communication points from sensor to gateway
gateway to software
then back again.
Integrated on-board data storage allows ALTA sensors to store data messages if communication to a wireless gateway is disrupted (power outage
Internet outage
or out of range). Messages that can’t be delivered will be time-stamped and stored in memory (up to the last 512 messages) until communication with the gateway is restored
at which point the messages will all be transmitted.
Over-the-air updates allow ALTA products to be updated remotely if new fixes or features become available.
Monnit ALTA Industrial Sensors come in an IP65
NEMA 4X
CE rated
sealed
and weatherproof enclosure. They are powered by a single
replaceable
Industrial grade 3.6 V battery (included).
An optional solar powered version is also available. The solar powered version includes a Lithium Iron Phosphate rechargeable battery in conjunction with a solar power cell to keep the battery charged and at optimal capacity. If there is no light present at the solar cell
the battery alone could continue to power the sensor for up to 8-10 years.
