This water resistant version of the AKCP temperature sensor is designed for outdoor usage, or indoor area that are subject to water or moisture (eg. greenhouses). The Temperature sensor is compatible with all of our sensorProbe and securityProbe series base units. Designed to record accurate temperature data it is ideal for giving advanced warning of temperature fluctuations that can potentially damage sensitive equipment. This advance notification can protect your data and systems from catastrophic events. Setup is simple with the sensorProbe and securityProbe autosense function. Once plugged into the intelligent sensor port the base unit automatically detects the sensors presence and configures it for you. All you need to do is set your thresholds for low and high warning and critical parameters. The built in graphing function of the base unit gives you a pattern of temperature trends over time. For those who require an industrial strength temperature sensor for extremes of high or low temperatures, we recommend the AKCP Thermocouple sensor.
