Monnit Industrial Wireless Compass Sensor    

Monnit Industrial Wireless Compass Sensor

The Monnit industrial wireless compass sensor uses a highly sensative 3 axis digital compass to return the orientation of the device in regards to magnetic north. Great for tracking directional behavior and positioning. User customization allows you to set alerts via SMS text or email if criteria are met or exceeded.

Monnit Industrial WIT Wireless Sensor Specifications
  • 900, 868 and 433MHz operating frequencies
  • External 2dBi or 3dBi RP SMA antenna (included)
  • 300 - 350 ft. non-line-of-sight device range*
  • Up to 5 year battery life.**
    (Replaceable, single AA, 2500mAH, 3.6V battery)
  • Operating temperature: -40° to 85°C (-40° to 185°F)
  • IP65 NEMA 4X, CE rated, sealed, weatherproof enclosure.

  • Uses 3-axis digital compass.
  • User defined thresholds for alerts and notifications.

* Actual range may vary depending on environment.
** Battery life is determined by sensor reporting
    frequency and other variables.

Monnit Industrial Sensors with Solar Power Option

Need Longer Battery Life?

Monnit Industrial Wireless Sensors are also available with a solar power cell. The solar powered sensors use a Lithium Iron Phosphate rechargeable battery in conjunction with a solar power cell to keep the battery charged and at optimal capacity. If there is no light present at the solar cell, the battery alone could continue to power the sensor for up to 5 years.

  • Keeps battery charged and at optimal capacity
  • Extends the life of the included rechargable battery
  • Great for outdoor monitoring
