    Introduction

    Industrial-Grade RS485 Temperature & Humidity Sensor (1200m Transmission). This sensor is designed for harsh environments where standard sensors fail. Unlike I2C/UART sensors that are limited to short distances (< 2m), this RS485 module utilizes the standard Modbus RTU protocol to transmit stable data up to 1200 meters. Fully wrapped in a waterproof aluminum alloy shell, it is the ideal solution for greenhouse monitoring, warehouse management, and HVAC automation.

    ⚠️ Project Scope Check

  • Wiring distance < 2 meters? Save time and money, check our [Gravity: SHT31-F Digital Temperature and Humidity Sensor]. It's plug-and-play for simple projects.
  • Wiring distance > 10 meters? Or need to daisy-chain multiple sensors? You are on the right page. This is the professional choice for long-distance stability.


    • Hardware Setup Guide (Required Accessories)

    Since this sensor outputs raw RS485 signals, it cannot be connected directly to a microcontroller's GPIO or a PC's USB port.

  • For PC Debugging: You need a [USB to RS485 Converter].
  • For Arduino / ESP32: You need an [RS485 Shield].
  • Power Supply: Requires 12V~36V DC external power (standard 5V from Arduino is insufficient).


    • Technical Quick Reference

    We have extracted the key parameters from the manual for your quick setup:

  • Protocol: Standard MODBUS RTU
  • Baud Rate: 9600 (Default)
  • Wire Sequence: Yellow: RS485 A, White: RS485 B, Red: Power Input (12-36V), Black: GND
