SENSBLUE MONARCH
Datasheet
1. Features
Built for the Wild. Engineered for Industry.
Remote monitoring is often required in the most unforgiving places. SENSBLUE MONARCH was explicitly designed for demanding and harsh installation locations where standard equipment often fails.
True efficiency isn’t about doing less. It’s about timing.
Engineered to master the balance between granular monitoring and energy conservation. If values are not within range, it will send the data as soon as possible so you can act on time. It is autonomy, redefined.
