The EL-WiFi-TP+ sensor measures the temperature of the environment in which it is situated. This high accuracy version is accurate to ±0.1˚C. Data is streamed wirelessly over any WiFi network and can be viewed on a PC using our free software package or on the EL-WiFi-Cloud*. During configuration, the sensor will search for an existing wireless network whilst 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 or cloud service (max 120 days at 10 second sample interval). Although the EL-WiFi sensors have an impressive range this can be increased by using WiFi extenders.
The EL-WiFi-TP+ is a low powered battery device. When configured using typical transmission periods (e.g. once every 5 minutes) the sensor will operate for over one year (at room temperature). The battery can then be recharged via a PC or USB +5V wall adapter using the USB lead provided or can be permanently powered by the USB wall adapter.
The software installed on the PC will allow set-up, data logging and data review. Set-up features will include sensor name, °C/°F, sample rate, and high/low alarms. Once configured, historic data can be viewed via the graphing tool or exported into Excel. This software is available to download for free from www.corintech.com.
The sensor is a freestanding unit, however, it can be attached to a wall or vertical surface using the bracket and screws / sticky pad provided.
It is supplied with a thermistor probe with an attachment so that it can be securely fixed to flat surfaces. It is perfect for a wide range of temperature monitoring situations e.g. manufacturing processes, cold storage and hot storage. The probe is removable so alternatives can also be used to meet specific requirements providing they operate within the same temperature range.
