Need a hand selecting the proper Rmoni sensor node? Check it out below.

Rmoni offers a variety of RMONO sensor nodes, most notably:

RMZ-1214-E10: ZB Endpoint RMONO LR, OD70::1T (int)
RMZ-1214-E11: ZB Endpoint RMONO LR, OD70::1T
RMZ-1214-E12: ZB Endpoint RMONO LR, OD70::COMBI (air+product)
RMZ-1214-E14: ZB Endpoint RMONO LR, OD70::PRODUCT
RMZ-1214-E20: ZB Endpoint RMONO LR, OD70::1RHT (int)
RMZ-1214-E51: ZB Endpoint RMONO LR, OD70::1TDIG (without M12 cable)
RMZ-1214-E61: ZB Endpoint RMONO LR, OD70::1SW (without Switch)

The choice is clear when you want to measure humidity (E20) or a door contact (E61), but to measure temperatures there are a number of options. This document aims to explain what to choose when and why.

Type	Measurement	Advanctage	Disadvantage
E10	One internal temperature sensor	Very easy to install	Electronics inside cold/wet cabinet. Calibration less straightforward due to thermal inertia
E11	One external NTC temperature probe	Electronics can be placed outside cabinet. Probe can be immerged in a bottle simulator. Easy to calibrate in oil bath or air	Cabled probe may be an obstacle
E12	One internal sensor in resin and one external NTC probe	Combi - measures both air and product temperature in a compact device Electronics protected in resin	Calibration less straightforward due to thermal inertia
E14	One internal sensor in resin	Electronics protected in resin – required for e.g. grill sides and fries dispensers	Measurement slowed down like product simulator Calibration less straightforward due to thermal inertia
E51	One external digital sensor	Digital probe with certificate can be swapped for easy calibration Electronics can be placed outside cabinet. Probe can be immerged in a bottle simulator	Higher initial price (but typically recovered over the years due to easier calibration)
