The Top 6 WiFi Temperature Sensors
Temperature is one of the most widely measured parameters. Temperature monitoring helps to assess and assure safety, comfort or to control quality in applications such as:
- cold chain transportation
- pharmaceutical/vaccine fridges
- food storage; and
- environmental management in warehouses, museums and offices (to name a few).
WiFi temperature sensors are increasingly popular for environmental monitoring. They streamline the data collection process, simplify data sharing, and allow instant and remote data access.
To help you find the best WiFi temperature sensor for your application, Instrument Choice Scientists have put together a list that features six of the best WiFi temperature sensors.
About WIFI Temperature Sensors
WiFi temperature sensors measure the surrounding environment's temperature, wirelessly sending this information to the Internet via a WIFI connection. Depending on the type of temperature sensor, data can be viewed either on a PC using software, a mobile application, a computer browser or any combination of the three.
The uses and requirements for wireless temperature sensors vary and so to do the type of devices. WiFi temperature sensors range from basic, budget-friendly units to professional, highly accurate devices.
