Specifications and Measurement Characteristics
Environment range
The wireless logger’s working range is the following
1.
Humidity
a.
0-99% non-condensing humidity for normal operation.
b.
During exposure to high levels of humidity, wireless communication can be affected.
2.
Temperature
a.
Operating range: -35°C to 80°C
b.
Recommended range -30°C to 40°C
3.
Enclosure rating
a.
IP567– protected from total dust ingress and protected from immersion between 15
centimeters and 1 meter in depth in water
Measurement Specifications
The maximal error for temperature measurements for the recommended operating range is normally 0.5°C.
Handling and Installation
The logger’s enclosure ensures a good protection against wet environment and dust. The enclosure has
limited protection against impacts and should be used with that in mind.
Cleaning of logger should be done with neutral soap, in case of a need to sanitize or sterilize use alcohol
based compounds and wipe with a cloth.
Wireless Connectivity
Controlant wireless devices have up to 200m range in open air. The communication frequency channels are
placed around 868MHz for Europe and 915 MHz in North America.
The range in open air depends on various factors, including:
1.
Antenna orientation
2.
Disturbance on communication frequencies caused by electronic devices, both low and high
current.
3.
Disturbance on communication frequencies caused by other wireless devices which are using the
same or similar communication frequency.
Wireless range is significantly affected by occluding objects. The range in occluded environment depends
on various factors, including:
1.
The building materials used in walls and ceilings.
2.
Metal objects which occlude the path of the signal
3.
Disturbance on communication frequencies caused by electronic devices, low and high current.
4.
Disturbance on communication frequencies caused by other wireless devices which are using the
same or similar communication frequency.
