Description

Autonomous sensor for continuous measurement of temperature and relative humidity in wood or other porous material.

Sensors data are transmitted in LoRa to A3IP Cloud, via a long distance encrypted radio transmission and consuming very little energy. They are stored and accessible through A3IP Cloud applications; access to the data of the connected sensors is simple and the visualization of the measurements is easy.


Wood moisture sensors are based on the equilibrium relationship between wood and air. A temperature and air humidity sensor is inserted into a small cavity created in the wood element. In this configuration, the wood moisture will impose the conditions (T, RH) inside the cavity. A hygroscopic equilibrium chart for wood is then applied to compute the measurements in the area surrounding the cavity, correlating it with the temperature and relative humidity of the air around the measurement point. The probe requires a small diameter drilling of the requested depth.

Sensors active element measuring relative humidity uses a field effect (capacitive) to achieve a reliable and accurate measurement for a wide range of use (in temperature as well as in moisture). It avoids degradation over time, or due to high levels of humidity in classic sensors (resistive, membrane, optical…).

Probe requires an 11mm diameter hole of the desired depth.

Each sensor is autonomous; it does not need another box or a sending station

The sensor was developed in partnership with the University of Clermont Auvergne and the MSGC test platform of Polytech Clermont Ferrand (https://msgc-cust.fr).

Applications

Measurement of moisture content in porous materials, including wood.
A specific exploitation for a wood species or another material is possible; consult us.
