How to Pick the Optimal Temperature and Humidity Sensor with the Best Offer for Your Project?

What Is Temperature and Humidity Sensor?

Temperature and humidity sensors are considered the most commonly used environmental sensors to get actionable insights, converting temperature and humidity into electrical signals that can be easily measured and processed. By measuring the water vapor in the air and the temperature of the environment, these sensors bring benefits to various application scenarios, including building, cold chain, food industries, medical, automotive, HVAC and so forth.

The Importance of Temperature and Humidity Sensor

Temperature and humidity sensors play an essential part in all walks of life. Since temperature and humidity can have huge effects on different biological, chemical, and physical processes, it is vital to measure and control them to slash or even avoid negative effects. In the food industry, it is critical to ensure that food is stored at the proper temperature to prevent spoilage. In the medical field, it is important to monitor temperature and humidity to ensure that medications and other medical supplies are stored properly and remain effective. In industrial settings, monitoring these two parameters can help to prevent equipment failures and production delays. As industries increasingly welcome temperature and humidity monitoring to improve efficiency and lower costs, the importance of temperature and humidity sensors becomes clear.

How to Pick the Best Temperature and Humidity Sensor for Your Project?

The first one is to determine which connectivity type you need for the best results. Compared to other mainstream technologies in the market, LoRaWAN^®, as a long-range, wide-area, and low-power networking protocol, brings great benefits to temperature and humidity monitoring. Above all, it enables temperature and humidity sensors to have long battery life (up to 10 years), which leads to low maintenance. With a long transmission range, it could penetrate indoor coverage including multi-floor buildings and has wide outdoor coverage. Mandatory authentication and encryption make it safer to transmit data.

Leveraging LoRaWAN^®, Milesight introduces four kinds of sensors to solve specific temperature and humidity monitoring needs with the best offer!
