DRAGINO Wireless LoRaWAN Door Open/Close Sensor
DRAGINO Wireless LoRaWAN Door Open/Close Sensor is a battery-powered LoRaWAN door sensor designed to monitor open and closed status and transmit the information to an IoT server. It records door opening events, open counts and the duration of the last opening, with an optional alarm for doors that remain open beyond a configured period. With LoRaWAN Class A connectivity, multiple frequency band options and configurable uplink behaviour, it is suited to wireless monitoring across industrial, building automation, security and other IoT applications.
The DRAGINO Wireless LoRaWAN Door Open/Close Sensor provides wireless monitoring of door open and close status without requiring a wired connection back to the monitoring system. The sensor communicates through a LoRaWAN network, allowing door events and status information to be collected by a compatible LoRaWAN network server and IoT platform.
The device can transmit information periodically as well as when a door changes state. It also maintains door opening statistics and calculates the duration of the most recent opening. For applications where individual event transmissions are not required, the event uplink can be disabled so the device records the events and reports them periodically instead.
How it works
- The DRAGINO Wireless LoRaWAN Door Open/Close Sensor uses a sensor and magnet arrangement to determine whether the monitored door is open or closed.
- When the door changes state, the device can transmit the event through a LoRaWAN network.
- It can also send a periodic data transmission, with the manufacturer documentation specifying a daily keep-alive transmission by default.
- The transmitted information can include door status, battery information, total door opening events and the duration of the last door opening.
- A configurable open-duration alarm can generate an alarm when the monitored door remains open beyond a specified period.
Why choose this product?
- LoRaWAN connectivity provides a practical wireless option for integrating door monitoring into an existing LoRaWAN IoT infrastructure.
- Event and periodic reporting allows the reporting behaviour to be configured according to the monitoring requirements.
- Door statistics provide more information than simple open/closed status by recording opening counts and the last opening duration.
- Configurable alarm function can help identify doors that remain open longer than expected.
- Replaceable AAA batteries allow the power source to be replaced when required rather than requiring a permanently wired supply.
- Multiple frequency band options are available for different LoRaWAN regions.
Benefits
The DRAGINO Wireless LoRaWAN Door Open/Close Sensor can help centralise door status information within a LoRaWAN monitoring system, making it useful where operators need to monitor access points or equipment doors without installing dedicated communication wiring.
Its event counting and open-duration information can also provide useful operational data for monitoring systems where knowing that a door opened is not enough and the frequency or duration of openings needs to be tracked.
