• What You Need to Know

The Importance of a Good Sensor

• Investing in a quality temperature monitoring
  system is a wise choice. However, maintaining
  that investment is just as wise. Parts may wear
  out, but the right parts can last a very long
  time.

Temperature sensors are designed for many
different purposes. In fact, as you will see in
this presentation, many are designed for purposes
well beyond the pool.

Water

• Everyone has a different purpose for their water
  system. While many families love to swim in
  crisp/cool water, another person who raises Koi
  needs to maintain a warmer temperature.

Having the correct pool temperature sensor means
having the ability to do what you want. Knowing
what you need means getting the sensor that fits
into your existing system the best.
4
Air

• Maintaining proper air temperature is vital in
  many industries. Whether you are an office worker
  or are involved in professional photography, the
  need to maintain a level of professional comfort
  is important.

But what about industries like iron smelts that
by necessity generate incredible amounts of heat?
A proper air monitoring system is vital in the
important monitoring of critical temperatures.
5
Solar

• The sun is our largest supplier of free energy.
  Once a prohibitive technology, due to the high
  costs of manufacturing, the use of solar energy
  is becoming increasingly more prevalent in the
  American market.

Nurseries and hatcheries are the traditional
users of solar technology, but a decrease in
prices are making them more common in everyday
life. Many water and air sensors now come with
solar capabilities as well.
