FIoT Long Range Wireless Proximity and Light Sensor
Introducing NCD’s Long Range IoT Wireless Proximity and Light Sensor with an incredible 2-Mile wireless range using a wireless mesh networking architecture. This device incorporates a precision proximity and ambient light sensor and a high-power radio transmitter that sends data at user defined intervals. This IoT Wireless Proximity Light Sensor has an additional feature of detecting change in proximity and ambient light every 3 seconds (user configurable) and sends a data transmission if a change of greater than 10% (user configurable) is detected. To minimize power consumption, it sleeps during the time it is not checking for change in proximity and ambient light. Both of these features work together to support multiple application areas in one package.
Powered by just 2 AA batteries and an operational lifetime of 500,000 wireless transmissions, a 10 years battery life can be expected depending on environmental conditions and the data transmission interval. Optionally, this sensor may be externally powered.
The long range, price, accuracy, battery life and security features of Long Range IoT Wireless Proximity Sensor makes it an affordable choice which exceeds the requirements for most of the industrial as well as consumer market applications.
Transmission Interval
This device sends data periodically, based on user-preset timing intervals.
This device samples proximity and ambient light every 3 seconds (user configured) and sends a data transmission if a change of greater than 10% (user configurable) is detected.

Not for use in outdoor applications or for use in excessive temperature conditions. Prolonged freezing will prevent batteries from functioning until thawed, using extended temperature range industrial batteries (included) may improve the useful temperature range. Extended freezing applications should use a full-time powered solution. Prolonged exposure to extreme humidity conditions may damage this device. Exposure to high temperatures may cause the batteries to leak, causing permanent damage to this device. NCD Warranty does not cover battery corrosion or use in excessively smoky environments under any circumstances.
900HP-S3B Wireless Compatibility Notes
Notice: Compatibility Notes Does NOT Apply to the Following Products:
- NCD Enterprise Solutions
- NCD Wireless Sensors
- NCD Enterprise Modems and Gateways
Notice: Compatibility Notes Applies to NCD Industrial Products, Including Fusion, ProXR, ProXR Lite, Taralist, and Reactor Series Products.
Compatibility Notes
When using an 900HP-S3B communication module, it is essential that you use the ZIGMO_PCB to configure the module settings. Long-Range wireless sensors may be programmed over the air without removing the communications module.
A 900HP-S3B Modem or a gateway of some kind that support the 900HP-S3B communications module will also be required.
