Above 45°C...

(1/1)

Rhoditis:
Hello,

I am very interested in the Soliwatch 10 device. I am reading about the usage limits. If you put it in a potted plant and the sun hits it, the temperature might go higher than the 45°C. What would be the voltage reading in that case ? Does it drop to 0v ?

Many thanks.

Hi Rhoditis,

Good question. We have tested our product for accuracy up to 45°C. Above the tested temperature range accuracy will be less than specified in datasheet.  We also had in mind our polymer enclosure which is good up to 100°C

So yes, you can use it in conditions above 45°C but not exceed 100°C as it will start to melt plastic enclosure.
Above 45°C sensor will be less accurate but it will not drop to zero. Reading will stay somewhere close to reading in lower temperature.

Thanks

Rhoditis:
Many thanks for the prompt reply.

It replies exactly my question.
I am supporting the product on Indiegogo. I wish you the very best for it.
