• Easily get data, no clunky software interfaces : smooth data flow to cloud servers or other IoT data management platforms

• Visualize data and monitor with SenseCAP Mate APP : you can set threshold value (just focus on the data you need to take action for), time intervals (improve the battery efficiency), and set alarms if data is out of the safe range.

• LoRaWAN wireless transmission : ultra-low power consumption to support Max.10 years of battery life and ultra-wide-transmission range of 2km in urban scenes and 10km in line of sight scenes

• Supported by Worldwide LoRaWAN Networks : can be used with different types of LoRaWAN gateways and compatible with multiple LoRaWAN Network Servers (Helium, TTN) to enable our sensor quickly join your current LoRaWAN networks

Air Temperature and humidity control are important in ambient air monitoring, facilities management, or warehouse conditions control, to name a few. A powerful wireless LoRaWAN temperature and humidity sensor enable accurate sensing of surroundings.

Scan-and-Play Simplicity, Easy Configuration via Bluetooth in Just 1 min

Built-in Bluetooth avoids time-consuming configuration works to bring no code experience to individuals with less or no technical background to quickly get started with air temperature and humidity sensing detection.

Minimal Maintenance Cost: power-conscious battery, IP66 rugged enclosure, and Bluetooth for remote data acquisition and device management

This sensor can cover a transmission range of 2km in urban scenes and 10km in line of sight scenes while keeping the transmission process low power to support years of usage. Remote monitoring can also benefit large-scale deployment, it gives you the biggest efficiency by saving time and manual labor needed to deploy and manage devices. Together with a replaceable battery that supports Max.10 years of usage and an industrial IP66 enclosure, it meets the need for LoRaWAN-based IoT Solutions in the real world.

Powerful SenseCAP Mate App: data visualization and remote device management

Compatibility with multiple networks and platforms: easily integrates with existing LoRaWAN networks

We have an article in Learn to introduce the separate network architecture when you choose different LoRaWAN network servers and platforms.

How to Select Gateway:

LoRaWAN network coverage is required when using sensors, there are two LoRaWAN network options.

Option 1: Sensors work in areas covered by Helium Network(Check on Helium Explore Map ).

Option 2: Sensors work in a standard LoRaWAN network, like The Things Network, Loriot, Chirpstack, etc.

SenseCAP Performance Guarantee: robustness and stability

Tips: The battery is a standard Li-SOCl2 battery (type: ER34615) that can purchase from Amazon and other platforms.

Comparison between SenseCAP S210x and Traditional LoRaWAN Sensors

Multi-Scenario Application

• Poultry Farm and Livestock Shed

Air quality is closely related to the growth of animals, especially in some relatively enclosed environments such as a barn or shed. If the air is stale and with excessively high/low temperature or humidity sensors can make them sick or even lead to disease outbreaks. Installing carbon dioxide detectors on farms can effectively prevent animal epidemics and prevent economic loss.

• Greenhouse

Air temperature and humidity are two important factors in photosynthesis and they can indicate the ventilation status of the greenhouse and the evaporation and transpiration of plants. Therefore, a low-cost wireless air temperature and humidity sensor can help better manage the greenhouse.

• Office and Home Air Quality Monitoring

IAQ(indoor air quality) is strongly connected to health and wellbeing. A wireless temperature and humidity sensor can help a lot in some enclosed places like conference rooms, classrooms, basements,s or public crowded places like hospitals, and shopping malls.

• Cold Chain and Warehouse

Improper temperature and humidity, especially high temperature and humidity will cause serious damage to warehouse items. Therefore, ensuring that the warehouse temperature and humidity can be basically fixed in a relatively standard range is a very important and realistic problem in warehouse management. Using this wireless sensor can help you better manage the cold chain and warehouse.

Specifications

Specifications

* Every single device can support 7 frequency plans.

** This wireless LoRaWAN Temperature and Humidity sensor support up to 10 years of battery life, but the actual battery life varies from data upload interval, data payload, and distance between gateways. If you want to optimize the battery life, you can choose to send a smaller amount of data, send messages less frequently, and keep spreading factor as low as possible.

LoRaWAN Frequency

Note: No Frequency limitation. Sensor switched to other frequency plans at any time.

S210x Devices are manufactured to support the universal frequency plan from 863MHz ~928MHz in one SKU. That is to say, every single device can support the frequency plans below:

The frequency plan setting is none by default and it will not transmit RF signal until it has been set by App via Bluetooth at the first power-up. And it can be changed to other frequency plans at any time.

Dimension

Partlist

The SenseCAP S2101 is a battery-powered, IP66-rated LoRaWAN wireless temperature and humidity sensor designed for long-term deployment in demanding environments. It measures ambient temperature from -40C to 85C and relative humidity from 0 to 100% RH (non-condensing), making it suitable for a wide range of industrial and environmental monitoring scenarios.

Built on the LoRaWAN protocol, the S2101 offers a transmission range of up to 2km in urban environments and up to 10km in line-of-sight conditions. It supports worldwide LoRaWAN frequency plans (863928MHz) and works with any compliant gateway, making integration straightforward. Configuration and firmware updates are handled via built-in Bluetooth and the SenseCAP Mate app, with a simple 4-step no-code setup process.

Designed for outdoor use, the sensor’s rugged IP66 enclosure protects it from UV, heavy rain, dust, and extreme temperatures. It is powered by a replaceable Li-SOCl2 battery (ER34615), offering up to 10 years of maintenance-free operation.

To ensure durability and accuracy over time, the S2101 has been validated through a series of reliability tests including high/low temperature, waterproofing, freezing, communication range, and factory conformance testing. The sensor is also fully frequency-agile, allowing for plan switching if needed.

This makes the S2101 ideal for use in smart agriculture, smart city infrastructure, outdoor environmental monitoring, and cold chain logistics.
