Aranet consists of a base station and wireless sensors that are environmentally durable. Wireless sensors can be placed outdoors and exposed to high levels of humidity. The sensors measure temperature, humidity and CO2, and send data that can be analyzed with a help of a computer software.
The sensors have exceptionally low energy consumption that allows them to function up to 10 years without battery replacement. The user can add up to 100 sensors within at least 3 km/1.9 mi line-of-sight distance from the base station.
Aranet PRO comes with free software. Easy to use interface allows viewing, analyzing and comparing data in real time from a computer, tablet or even a smartphone.
Aranet capabilities offer new solutions for different businesses including food manufacturing plants, grocery stores, warehouse management companies, museums and exhibition halls, hotels and restaurants, agricultural facilities, data centres and many others.
