The SM5038 is a compact and waterproof IoT data logger designed for reliable data collection in harsh outdoor environments. With low power consumption and support for 4G NB-IoT communication, it is ideal for long-term monitoring in meteorology, hydrology, and environmental observation.
SM5038, developed by Scanmatic, is a powerful and compact IoT device specifically designed to collect data in challenging outdoor conditions. Its robust, waterproof design (IP67) makes it particularly suitable for applications such as meteorology, hydrology, aquaculture, and air and water quality monitoring. This device ensures reliable data collection even under extreme conditions, operating within a temperature range as low as -40 °C.
The device is optimized for low power consumption, capable of running for up to five years on its internal battery, depending on usage and configuration. It also supports external power supply (9-36V DC), and sensors can be connected via its three waterproof connector ports. The SM5038 supports standard protocols such as SDI-12 and Modbus RTU and comes in several variants offering different sensor interfaces, including RTD/PT100 and RS485.
Communication is handled over 4G networks (NB-IoT), with remote configuration and firmware updates supported. Integration with Scanmatic’s H2 data system allows users to remotely configure and monitor the device, enabling flexible adjustments to measurement intervals, data transmission, and alarm modes as required.
With its compact size (172x90x67 mm) and lightweight design (0.66 kg), the SM5038 is easy to install in various environments, from remote mountainous regions to urban weather stations. Its built-in GNSS positioning sensor, barometer, and temperature sensor allow for real-time monitoring of critical environmental conditions.
The SM5038 is an ideal choice for users needing a robust, low-power IoT device for reliable data collection and transmission in demanding, remote environments.
