Based on the Nordic nRF52832 and an embedded FWM7BLZ20W Fujitsu Wirepas wireless module, the new 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 on-board 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 4 AA batteries or USB-C. Each is IP-65 rated against water and dust making them suitable for use in wet or humid/damp indoor environments. The battery powered units have a more than 5-year battery life.

Utilizing the Fujitsu Mesh Anchors and Mesh Tags, the Wirepas Positioning Engine provides excellent location awareness of stationary items and moving assets, making them ideal for a multitude of IoT applications.

The contemporary housing of the units measures a compact 74.2 x 74.2 x 28.0mm and includes a detachable bracket for easy installation and maintenance. The operating temperature ranges are -20 to +60deg C (CO2 sensor version starting from -10degC) and they are FCC/ISED, CE and Radio Act Japan certified.

Orders for the Wirepas Massive sensor and network units will be accepted at the beginning of July. More information and pricing can be obtained here.
