Monnit ALTA wireless quad temperature sensor

Monnit has released the ALTA multi-probe industrial wireless temperature sensor. It features four independent sensor probes to measure and track multiple temperatures on one device, and is designed for monitoring a variety of temperature-critical applications such as food coolers and HVAC systems.

For example, one quad temperature sensor can provide a complete preventive maintenance system for HVAC applications by monitoring the input and output temperatures of air handling systems to ensure proper operation and send notifications via text or email if maintenance is required.

Sensor data is stored in the iMonnit Online Sensor Monitoring and Notification System, and can be reviewed and exported as needed from any web-enabled device such as a tablet or smartphone. Customisation allows users to set notifications and alerts from the system.

The quad temperature sensor system offers an accuracy of ±1°C over a probe temperature range of -40 to +125°C, and is housed in an IP65 NEMA 4X, CE-rated, sealed and weatherproof enclosure.

The device is powered by a single, replaceable 3.6 V battery with an expected 10-year battery life (depending on frequency updates). A solar-powered version is also available.
