The temperature sensor.

Real-time temperature, calibration-free and magnetically mounted, in five variants for different jobs.

1 · What it is

Augos wireless temperature sensor with probe and antenna
The Augos temperature sensor

The Augos temperature sensor reads air or surface temperature at its location and reports it wirelessly, calibration-free out of the box. It comes in variants for different jobs: indoor and outdoor ambient, a cold-store unit, an equipment probe (DS18B20) for surfaces and bearings, and an inline PT-1000 for fluids.

2 · What it measures

A continuous temperature reading, from which the platform builds the compliance view: high, low and average over the period, time in and out of range, the longest and last breach, and a breach count. It feeds Air temperature and Equipment temperature.
