WQS-LB LoRaWAN Water Quality Transmitter Node 868Mhz

The WQS-LB LoRaWAN Water Quality Transmitter is a highly advanced instrument for monitoring water quality in various applications. It allows the measurement and monitoring of parameters such as pH level, electrical conductivity (EC), dissolved oxygen (DO), oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), and turbidity (TS). The WQS-LB supports up to three probes simultaneously and transmits the collected data to IoT servers via the LoRaWAN network. It is excellently suited for monitoring drinking water, industrial wastewater, and ambient water. The sensor can be easily configured via Bluetooth and supports wireless OTA updates for maximum flexibility. With a long-lasting 8500mAh Li-SOCI2 battery, the device is designed for years of use and provides a reliable solution for water quality monitoring.

Each sensor comes preloaded with a set of unique keys for LoRaWAN registrations. These keys are registered on the local LoRaWAN server, and the sensor automatically establishes a connection after being powered on when network coverage is available.
