Fujitsu Components America has released a family of mesh network and multi-sensor units featuring built-in Wirepas Massive network connectivity. Based on the Nordic nRF52832 and an embedded FWM7BLZ20W Fujitsu Wirepas wireless module, the new FWM8BLZ08-x series endurance line consists of:
• FWM8BLZ08A Mesh Anchor unit for location/asset tracking reference point
• FWM8BLZ08T Mesh Tag unit with an acceleration sensor for location/asset tracking
• FWM8BLZ08Y Mesh sensor unit with embedded temperature, humidity, barometric pressure, illuminance, sound level, and acceleration sensors
• FWM8BLZ08C Mesh CO2 sensor unit also includes onboard temperature, humidity, barometric pressure, illuminance, sound level, and acceleration sensors
The CO2 sensor unit is powered by USB-C while all the other units have the option to be powered by four AA batteries or USB-C. Each is IP-65 rated against water and dust. The batterypowered anchor unit provides up to a five-year battery life. Utilizing the Fujitsu Mesh Anchors, Mesh Tags and Mesh Sensors, the Wirepas Positioning Engine (WPE) provides location awareness of stationary items and moving assets.
The units’ contemporary housing measures a compact 74.2-by-74.2-by-28 millimetres. They are FCC/ISED, CE and Radio Act Japan certified and have an operating temperature range of minus-20 to plus-60 C (with the CO2 sensor version starting from minus-10 C).
