The new Sensaphone Sentry system is an easy, affordable remote monitoring solution to track HVACR equipment performance and critical conditions around the clock.
Sensaphone will introduce the Sentry system at the AHR Expo 2025, at booth 1181, taking place from February 10-12, 2025, at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida, USA.
Sensaphone Sentry system
The Sensaphone Sentry system uses cellular technology to remotely track up to five conditions, such as temperature, humidity, power outage, and water detection, for HVACR, boiler, cold storage, and chiller applications.
The Sentry system helps facility managers ensure conditions stay within desired parameters and equipment is functioning properly.
Proactive notification
When the device detects issues, it instantly sends alerts via phone, text, or email over standard cellular networks
When the device detects issues, it instantly sends alerts via phone, text, or email over standard cellular networks. This proactive notification enables operators to quickly evaluate potential issues before they escalate into disruptive and costly malfunctions.
The system is ideal for operations where internet or landline connectivity is unavailable or for replacing a traditional landline-based autodialer.
Features and design
Users can access information and make system changes from any web-enabled device or a mobile app. The Sensaphone Sentry stores all readings in the cloud and allows multiple devices to be managed from one account. No software is required, so installation, integration, and management are easy.
The device is housed in a durable aluminum casing and includes built-in power failure detection, a rechargeable backup battery, and optional GPS location features. The Sensaphone Sentry system will be available commercially in the first quarter of 2025. Features and design are subject to change.
Products on display at AHR 2025
Sensaphone will also showcase these established remote monitoring solutions at AHR 2025:
- Sentinel™ PRO cloud-based remote monitoring system
The Sentinel™ PRO cloud-based remote monitoring system interfaces with any HVACR equipment operated by programmable logic controllers (PLC) or building automation systems (BAS) to deliver real-time system-wide data.
In addition to pulling data from a PLC or BAS, the Sentinel PRO system can accommodate 12 external digital or analog status sensors. Users can easily view data values in real time, set alarms, acknowledge alerts, review data, and generate reports from their mobile device, tablet, or computer.
- Stratus EMS system
The supporting app enables users to check their status and modify settings in real time
The Stratus EMS system is a cloud-based, rack-mounted system that pulls information from BAS or PLC sensors to centralize monitoring activities and data acquisition.
The Stratus system also includes 12 inputs for connecting external sensors. The supporting app enables users to check their status and modify settings in real time from any mobile device.
- Sentinel cloud-based system
The Sentinel cloud-based system can monitor up to 12 digital or analog status conditions. Sentinel operators can access real-time data around the clock from anywhere using a mobile device or computer.
They can also check status information, change settings, disable alarms, and readjust temperature limits right from the Sensaphone app.
- WSG30 remote monitoring system
The WSG30 remote monitoring system with new weatherproof enclosures for the base unit and wireless sensors. The WSG30 is a web-based monitoring system that uses wireless sensors to detect changes in operating conditions.
This makes it ideal for locations where hard-wiring sensors is difficult or cost-prohibitive. It helps operators track temperature changes from -109 °F to 115 °F (-85 °C to 57 °C), and a single WSG30 unit can support up to 30 wireless sensors.
