Omron says USB environmental sensor monitors seven functions

Omron Electronic Components Europe has introduced a new version of its USB multi-function environmental sensor that that can monitor seven parameters.

The 2JCIE-BU01 offers multiple sensors in one unit that has built-in memory and connectivity through beacon communication.

It  measures 14.9 x 29.1 x 7.0mm and can monitor temperature, humidity, light, UV, barometric pressure, noise, seismic and air quality (VOC gas).  

The sensor can accumulate data for up to three months (based on a communication frequency of once every 5 mins) and connect to multiple devices, such as smartphones, via Bluetooth 5.0.

Data from the modules can be downloaded over a Bluetooth low energy interface, and the sensors are cloud compatible with no need for additional hardware.   

Commenting, Gabriele Fulco, product marketing manager at Omron Electronic Components Europe, writes:

 “Our multi-purpose Environmental Sensors make it very easy for the designer to deliver a wide range of measurement functions from just one small sensor… these sensors also offer easy to interpret data that can then be analysed, stored on the cloud and used to set parameters and make real-time adjustments.”

Certified for all required regulations/directives in the EU, US and Japan, the 2JCIE range is FCC approved and CE marked.
