Industrial Wireless Thermocouple High Temperature Sensor for Hazardous Environments
NCD’s new C1D2 certified long range wireless Thermocouple Temperature sensors offer the an industry first for long range wireless IoT sensors designed specifically for use in hazardous environments. With C1D2 Group A, B, C, and D certification, this long range wireless Thermocouple Temperature sensor is specified for use in hazardous environments where potentially explosive gasses, dust, fibers, or flammable vapors may be present. This includes hazardous gases and vapors that may contain Acetylene, Hydrogen, Ether, Ethyl, Ethelene, Gasoline, Acetone, Ammonia, Benzene, Butane, Methanol, and Propane. NCD’s C1D2 certified sensors are the only long range wireless products available on the market today that may be used in chemical plants, oil and gas refineries, paint shops, cleaning facilities, mills, flour silos, mining, and loading facilities for flammable gases, liquids, and solids.
With an integrated antenna and up to a 2-mile range using a wireless mesh networking architecture, this sensor incorporates a 900MHz 128-Bit AES encrypted transceiver that sends data at user-defined intervals over long distances to a wireless gateway. This IoT Thermocouple Temperature Sensor goes to sleep between transmissions to minimize power consumption and prolong battery life. Incorporating a high resolution Temperature sensor, this sensor transmits highly accurate temperature data every 10 minutes with the default settings. Between transmissions, this sensor will go to sleep, extending the life of the batteries. Up to 10 years of battery life may be achieved depending on environmental conditions and the transmission interval you choose.
NCD Industrial wireless thermocouple High Temperature sensor is capable of measuring extreme high and low temperatures. This sensor includes integrated hot and cold junction to provide highly accurate readings. This Industrial wireless thermocouple transmitter is ideal for high temperature measurements, industrial boiler temperature measurements, liquid temperature measurement, and temperature monitoring of food storage units. This Industrial wireless thermocouple sensor is designed to consume extremely low power and send data at extremely long distances of up to 2 miles with an integrated antenna. Powered by just 6 AA batteries with a operational lifetime of 500,000 wireless transmissions, you can expect to achieve up to 10 years of battery life depending on environmental conditions and the transmission interval you choose.
The NCD Long Range Industrial Wireless IoT Thermocouple Temperature Sensor has one of the longest ranges, highest accuracies, longest battery life, and best security features on the market today. NCD is the only manufacturer of a complete ecosystem of C1D2 certified long range wireless sensors with an open protocol for integration into any software system. To help get you started, use a NCD Gateway running Node-RED to receive and decode the long range wireless transmissions generated by this sensor. Use Node-RED to patch into any cloud platform with minimal programming. Communicate to your own MQTT server or use a common IoT platform such as AWS® and Microsoft Azure®. Node-RED offers the flexibility to handle just about any cloud platform imaginable or keep your data on your own server without using a 3rd party ecosystem. NCD wireless sensor protocols allow you to keep data secure and private or integrate with any cloud platform of your choice!

What is Class 1 Division 2 Certification?
Class 1, Division 2 is a hazardous location rating system that indicates where flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dust may be present. It also specifies the types of technology that are safe to use in these environments. Class 1, Division 2 locations are places where flammable liquids or gases are used, processed, or handled. These liquids or gases are usually kept in closed systems or containers, and can only escape if the systems or containers deteriorate or rupture. Under normal operating conditions, a Class 1, Division 2 location shouldn’t have an explosive atmosphere, but it may occur briefly during maintenance or repair activities, or if a container or vessel accidentally ruptures.
Class 1, Division 2 equipment must meet strict hazardous location rating requirements to ensure it can safely operate in these environments. This compliance can help improve workplace safety and reduce the risk of accidents. Select NCD sensors are Class 1, Division 2 certified for hazardous environments and can prevent ignition in atmospheres that may contain explosive gases or vapors.
NCD C1D2 Certified Sensors are certified for use in groups A, B, C, and D. A list of groups and their associated environments are listed below.
Group A contains only acetylene.
Group B includes hydrogen, gases with more than 30% hydrogen by volume, butadiene, ethylene oxide and propylene oxide.
Group C includes acetaldehyde, cyclopropane, diethyl ether, and dimethyl hydrazine.
Group D includes gasoline, acetone, ammonia, benzene, butane, methane, propane, alcohols and other more commonly encountered compounds.

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 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. The sensing element is rated for use for 5 years and may be replaced. 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.
Tested and verified for use with NCD Micro Gateway Products.
