Probe head-mounted temperature transmitter NEON

thermocoupletype S thermocoupletype K thermocouple

Overview
The IMI NEON Temperature Transmitter (Non-Ex) is a battery-powered, LoRaWAN-enabled industrial device for rapid deployment of accurate temperature monitoring. It accepts thermocouples (default Type K) and RTD (PT100) inputs, performs onboard signal processing and averaging, and supports event-based and scheduled reporting for long-term, low-maintenance operation in non-explosive industrial environments.

Key capabilities

• Battery-powered transmitter for standalone operation
• Wireless data transmission over LoRaWAN with end-to-end encryption
• Compatible with multiple thermocouple types and PT100 RTDs
• M12 thermocouple connector with up to 3 m extension cable support
• Onboard signal processing and configurable averaging windows
• Event-triggered and scheduled messaging; OTA firmware updates
• Rapid installation on live assets (band clamp or bolts); optional mounting brackets
• Integration-ready for DCS, IT and IoT platforms with full data ownership
• Engineered for long battery life and low maintenance

Use cases and environments
Intended for non-explosive zones (Non-Ex / non-ATEX / non-IECEx) in industrial sites such as manufacturing, pulp & paper, power plants, water management and automation. Suitable for monitoring absolute temperature extremes and dynamic changes across applications—from very low temperatures (e.g., hydrogen systems) to high temperatures (e.g., furnaces)—when paired with the appropriate thermocouple or RTD.

Key features

• Full LoRaWAN compatibility with multi-region frequency support
• OTA firmware updates and advanced scheduling options
• Supports up to x2 PT100 2-wire sensors (channels configurable)
• Event-based and scheduled data transmission modes
• Onboard intelligence for signal averaging and processing
• Secure, scalable transmission with end-to-end encryption
• Designed for rapid installation on live equipment
