Industrial Wireless Pressure and Temperature Sensor

Catch a Pressure Problem
Before It Becomes Downtime.
One Sensor, Any Pressure Range.

A failing pump or a clogging filter shows up as pressure long before the machine does. Thread a wireless sensor into your process and read it from your dashboard, no gauge to walk out to, no wires to run, and a pressure range to match the application.

Setup

From Process Port to Dashboard

No software to install. No cloud accounts to create. Thread it in, power on, monitor.

01

Connect to the Process

Thread the industry-standard 1/4" NPT male connector into your line, tank, or manifold, no special adapters and no wiring to run.

02

Mount & Power

Run on a D-cell with supercapacitor or the external 5–12 V DC power option. The IP65 enclosure handles dust and washdown environments.

03

Wireless Mesh

Readings hop sensor-to-sensor across a wireless mesh, so one gateway covers a large plant or a spread-out site without new cabling.

04

Monitor & Act

Watch live pressure on browser dashboards, get threshold email alerts, and export to CSV, or forward readings into the cloud, historian, or SCADA you already run.

Three Wireless Pressure Sensors

Which Pressure Sensor Is the One for Your Job?

NCD builds three wireless pressure sensors, and they differ in exactly one thing: the pressure they are built to read. Pick by the size of the number you expect to see.

Sensor Capabilities

Built for the Plant Floor

Rugged pressure monitoring designed to run for years and be read from anywhere on site.

Wide Pressure Range

Choose the pressure range you need, from 0–20 psi up to 0–10,000 psi. One sensor family covers everything from low-pressure air to high-pressure hydraulics.

Industrial-Grade Accuracy

±0.5% full-scale pressure accuracy with ±0.3% FS/year long-term stability, plus on-board temperature to ±1.5°C, readings you can trust over the life of the deployment.

Gas, Liquid, or Vapor

An OEM piezoresistive sensor with a 316L stainless-steel corrugated diaphragm and isolated oil-fill construction reads your process media directly at the port — compressed air, liquids, and vapor compatible with 316L stainless, no separate transmitter.

No Dropped Readings

A built-in retry re-sends any packet lost to RF noise, so a busy plant floor never leaves gaps in your pressure trend.

Multi-Year Battery Life

Runs up to 5 years on a D-cell with supercapacitor, with real-time battery-status reporting. An external 5–12 V DC power option is also available.

OTA Firmware Updates

Update firmware wirelessly across your fleet over the wireless mesh network. No climbing ladders, no removing sensors from service.

Where This Sensor Works

Anywhere a pressure needs to be watched continuously and wirelessly, in gas, liquid or vapor service, from chemical plants and food lines to power stations.

Monitor working pressure on presses, actuators, and power units to catch seal wear and pump fade before a line goes down.

The Cost of a Pressure You Didn’t See

Most Equipment Fails as Pressure First.

Pressure drifts quietlyA filter loading up or a pump losing prime moves pressure slowly, usually when no one is watching the gauge, by the time it’s obvious the damage is underway.
One spike can wreck a lineAn over-pressure event or a dry pump doesn’t stay contained, a single missed limit can take out a seal, a line, or a whole process, far more costly than the sensor.
No log means no root causeWithout a pressure history, troubleshooting is guesswork, a continuous log shows exactly when the trend turned so you fix the cause, not just the symptom.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most common questions about wireless pressure monitoring.

Pressure & Sensing

It’s a battery-powered industrial sensor that reads pressure through a 1/4" NPT connection and sends the data wirelessly to a gateway. You get ±0.5% full-scale accuracy, on-board temperature, wide media compatibility, and years of battery life, with no monthly fees.

Pick the range that brackets your working pressure with some headroom, options span low-pressure air up to high-pressure hydraulics. Sizing the range to your process keeps the ±0.5% full-scale accuracy meaningful, since accuracy is a percentage of the full range.

No. This sensor is not rated for vacuum or sustained negative pressure, long-term exposure can damage the sensing element. If you need to measure below atmospheric or in both directions, NCD builds a dedicated wireless differential-pressure sensor with the right element for that job; talk to an engineer and we’ll point you to it.

Ranges run from 0–20 psi up to 0–10,000 psi, selected by variant, at ±0.5% full-scale accuracy with ±0.3% FS/year long-term stability, so each unit holds its calibration across long deployments.

Wireless & Power

Each sensor sends readings to a gateway over a long-range wireless link, up to 2 miles line-of-sight (about 1000 ft in dense urban areas). Sensors relay through a mesh, so one gateway collects from many sensors across a large or multi-building site.

Just the sensor and one gateway. A single gateway talks to many sensors at once, so you add sensors without adding infrastructure. Wi-Fi isn’t required, though a Wi-Fi/MQTT gateway is an option if you have it, and cellular gateways cover remote sites with no local network.

Up to 5 years on a D-cell with supercapacitor, with battery status reported in real time. External-power variants (5–12 V DC) are available for permanent installations.

Integration & Ownership

None. There are no subscriptions and no per-device software fees, you buy the hardware once and own it outright, along with all of your data. No contracts, no proprietary lock-in.

Yes. Through the Atrium gateway, readings can go to AWS, Azure, MQTT, Modbus, Node-RED, or a REST API, and into existing SCADA, CMMS, or analytics platforms. Data is AES-128 encrypted in transit.

Durability & Build

Yes. The main enclosure is IP65 rated (the box only, not the pressure port) and also meets NEMA 1/2/4/4X/12/13 and UL-508, built for dust, washdown, and harsh plant-floor conditions.

Made in the USA and RoHS compliant. The 900 MHz wireless module carries FCC (USA), IC (Canada), C-Tick (Australia), Anatel (Brazil), IDA (Singapore), and CE/RED certifications for deployment across many regions.

Buying & Fit

We publish our prices. There is no quote form, no login and no sales call between you and the number. The Ordering section of the spec table names each version we sell and its part number, so you can match the one you want before you order.

The wetted part is a 316L stainless steel diaphragm, so the media has to be compatible with 316L: gas, liquid or vapor that will not attack stainless. Media that corrodes stainless needs a different sensor. Tell us what is in the line and we will confirm whether this one suits it.

Wireless Communication OptionsChange

Please choose a wireless communications module that is legal for use in your region.  Please note: transmission range will be affected by the product options selected below.  If you are in North America, we strongly suggest the 900MHz option for best results.  If you are in Europe, the 2.4GHz and 868MHz versions are the only legal options.  The 2.4GHz option is now certified for use worldwide.  Please note the 2.4GHz version will not penetrate objects as well as the 900MHz and 868MHz versions.  If you need help choosing a wireless option, please contact us.  This option will determine how we build this product and any applicable accessories that may be displayed below.
