Key capabilities
Reliable Cold-Chain Monitoring You Can Trust
Our cold-chain sensor stands apart through rigorous testing in some of the harshest real-world environments. Every design decision is driven by reliability โ from preventing sensor and device failures to ensuring data integrity under extreme conditions.
Unlike conventional devices, our system features an intelligent cross-validation mechanism that continuously verifies sensor accuracy and detects anomalies before they become problems. In other words, it answers the critical question: "What happens if a sensor stops reporting the correct value?"
At CropWatch, our goal is simple: deliver the most reliable and accurate cold-chain data in the industry โ so you can make confident decisions, backed by data you can trust.
Cross-validated, Fail-Stop system for safe operation
The CW-Air-TH continuously cross-checks its replaceable sensor against each other to confirm every value before it reaches your dashboards. If the primary probe drifts or reports outside expected tolerances, the device flags the anomaly instantly and notifies you of an issue.
- Dual-channel comparison cross-validates live telemetry against each other.
- Automatic Fail-Stop prevents bad data from ever reaching your dashboards.
- Exception events sync directly into compliance logs so auditors see proof of every validation step.
Rugged industrial enclosure
IP67-rated shell with conformal coated electronics keeps the sensor operating in freezers, loading docks, and production floors.
Precision monitoring
High-accuracy digital sensing provides +/- 0.2ยฐC temperature and +/- 2% RH readings for compliance-ready reporting.
Multi-year battery life
Engineered for more than 10 years of continuous telemetry with field-replaceable lithium batteries and low-power firmware.
LoRaWAN connectivity
Secure LoRaWAN connectivity ensures resilient transmission through dense infrastructure and cold storage insulation.
