Dragino S31-CB/S31B-CB NB-IoT/LTE-M Outdoor Temperature and Humidity Sensor

1. Bubuka

The Dragino S31-CB and S31B-CB are advanced NB-IoT/LTE-M Temperature and Humidity Sensors designed for Internet of Things (IoT) solutions. These devices precisely measure ambient temperature and relative air humidity, then transmit this data to an IoT server via NB-IoT or CAT-M1 networks.

The sensor utilized in both S31-CB and S31B-CB models is the SHT31, a fully calibrated, linearized, and temperature-compensated digital output sensor from Sensirion. It offers strong reliability and long-term stability. The SHT31 is housed within a waterproof, anti-condensation casing, ensuring durability for extended use.

The S31-CB/S31B-CB supports various uplink methods including MQTT, MQTTs, TCP, UDP, or CoAP, catering to diverse application requirements and enabling connectivity with a wide range of IoT servers.

Powered by an 8500mAh Li-SOCI2 battery, these sensors are engineered for long-term operation, potentially lasting several years. Actual battery life may vary based on environmental conditions, data update frequency, and chosen uplink method. Optional built-in SIM cards and default IoT server connection versions are available for simplified configuration.
