Note

S2120 is not maintenance-free. Its service life may be reduced in harsh environments.

SenseCAP LoRaWAN S2120 Weather Station collects and uploads air temperature, humidity, wind speed/direction, Rainfall Intensity, light intensity, UV index, and barometric pressure data supported by worldwide LoRaWAN networks. The S2120 weather station is suitable for applications in gardens, agriculture, meteorology, urban environmental monitoring, and other scenarios. It also enables low maintenance cost for its ultra-low power consumption, reliable performance, built-in Bluetooth for OTA configuration and remote device management.

Features
  • 8-in-1 Weather Station: Collect air temperature, humidity, wind speed/direction, Rainfall Intensity, light intensity, UV index, and barometric pressure data in one device and upload them via LoRaWAN
  • Bluetooth Configuration in 1 min & Remote Management: Simple configuration with just a few clicks, supports remote monitoring and managing real-time & historical data via the SenseCAP Mate App (Download here: 1. iOS; 2. Google Play; 3. App Center) and SenseCAP Portal
  • Ultra-low Power Consumption, Easily Replaceable Battery & Expandable Capacity: Powered by 0.5W solar panel and 3*standard 1.5V AA size dry batteries with up to 2 years service life (support external battery compartment with capacity for six batteries to double the service life)
  • Reliable Performance: Suitable for outdoor harsh environments such as high UV exposure, heavy rain, dusty conditions, etc
  • One-stop Deployment & Flexible Layout: Accessories include poles, mounting stand, etc. for quick installation and can be set up at almost any location

 

Description Scan-and-Play Simplicity, Easy Configuration via Bluetooth in Just 1 min

Built-in Bluetooth avoids time-consuming configuration works to bring no code experience to individuals with less or no technical background to quickly get started with weather detection.

Powerful SenseCAP Mate App: data visualization and remote device management

Compatibility with Multiple Networks and Platforms: easily integrates with existing worldwide  LoRaWAN networks

How to Select Gateway:

LoRaWAN network coverage is required when using sensors, there are two LoRaWAN network options.

Option 1: Sensors work in areas covered by Helium Network (Check on Helium Explorer).

Option 2: Sensors work in a standard LoRaWAN network, like The Things Network, Loriot, Chirpstack, etc (Check out the SenseCAP Gateway series).

We highly recommend that you use our SenseCAP M2 Multi-Platform LoRaWAN Gateway, which is a standard LoRaWAN® gateway that supports connection to different network servers. With its affordable price of $99, its cost-effectiveness becomes a standout advantage, especially when building your private LoRaWAN network.

Application
  • Backyard and Garden: Measure air temperature and humidity, Rainfall Intensity, UV index, etc. in the backyard and garden to protect your family.
  • Smart Agriculture: Enable farmers to obtain climate data and information in time, take scientific management measures into production, and improve agricultural production capacity and level.
  • Meteorology: Support applications in the professional meteorological field, for example, timely reflect the changes of various abnormal meteorological conditions in the field of traffic and transportation to provide real-time scientific basis data for traffic management departments.
  • Urban Weather: Provide real-time data for urban squares, parks, scenic spots, golf courses, and other urban areas.

Replacement Notice

When bringing stations from sub-zero environments into heated spaces for maintenance, allow the entire unit to reach room temperature and confirm zero condensation on internal surfaces before opening the battery compartment. Moisture on terminals causes corrosion and potential short circuits.

Note: As a commercial-grade weather station, the S2120 may experience accelerated aging of its internal sensors and batteries under certain extreme weather conditions (extremely high or low temperatures) and deployment environments (high salinity and humidity), which can cause the device to malfunction. Please select the appropriate battery type based on the actual temperature of the deployment environment.

LoRaWAN Frequency

Note: No Frequency limitation. Weather stations can be switched to other frequency plans at any time.

S2120 is manufactured to support the universal frequency plan from 863MHz ~928MHz in one SKU. That is to say, it can support the frequency plans below:
