REEF SENSE TEMPERATURE PROBE

The Red Sea ReefSense Temperature Probe is a dedicated, high-precision digital sensor designed to provide reliable, standalone monitoring of water temperature. This separate unit is perfect for reef keepers who need to monitor temperature in a second location (such as a quarantine tank, a separate refugium, or within a chiller loop) or as a primary control sensor. Technical Features • Dedicated Digital Sensor: Provides continuous, accurate temperature data as its sole function. • Digital Signal Purity: Like all ReefSense probes, it converts the analog reading to a digital signal inside the probe itself. This makes the reading highly stable and immune to electrical interference (EMI) often found near pumps and other electronics in the aquarium setup. • High Precision: Offers a high level of accuracy, 0.1 F, ensuring very tight control over thermal stability. • Smart Calibration Memory: Stores calibration data directly within the probe's internal memory. This allows for simple plug-and-play functionality across different ports or controllers without the need for immediate re-calibration. Ecosystem Integration and Automation When connected to a ReefControl Lite or ReefControl Pro controller, the ReefSense Temperature Probe unlocks powerful automation via the ReefBeat mobile app: • 24/7 Monitoring & Logging: Tracks and records the temperature continuously, providing real-time data and historical trend analysis to help identify overheating or chilling issues. • Critical Alerts: Sends instant notifications to your mobile device if the temperature falls outside your custom-set safe range, allowing you to prevent thermal shock to your livestock. • Automation Triggers (Primary Function): The temperature reading can be used as the primary trigger to control heating and cooling devices: • Control DC Equipment: Automatically switch a cooling fan ON/OFF using the 12V DC ports on the ReefControl Lite/Pro. • Control AC Equipment: Automatically switch AC devices like heaters or chillers ON/OFF when integrated with a ReefControl Power unit (sold separately), ensuring precise thermal control. • Multi-Point Temperature Check: Allows advanced users to monitor the temperature differential between, for example, the main display tank and the sump or a critical reactor. This probe is an excellent addition for users seeking redundancy in temperature monitoring or requiring temperature-driven automation from a specific location within their system.
