Temperature Probe bleBox probe (probe5m) — wired sensor, 5 m cable

bleBox probe (probe5m) — wired sensor, 5 m cable is a temperature probe designed for external temperature measurement when connected to compatible bleBox controllers and smart home systems. The probe enables continuous monitoring of ambient, refrigeration, or equipment temperatures through a 5-metre cable, allowing placement at a distance from the controller for accurate remote sensing and integration with automated controls and alerts.

Advantages

The wired design ensures stable data transmission and does not require separate power or wireless pairing for the sensor itself; it operates through the host controller connection. The 5 m cable provides flexible placement options while maintaining consistent temperature readings. The probe is compatible with bleBox ecosystems and can be used with systems that support external temperature sensors, enabling automated rules, logging and alarm functions without complex installation.

Suitable for

• Monitoring ambient room temperature in homes, offices and server rooms
• Temperature control in refrigeration units, cabinets and cold storage
• Measuring equipment surface or enclosure temperatures for preventive maintenance
• Integration with smart home automation routines for heating, cooling and alerts

Key specifications

• Sensor type: wired temperature probe
• Cable length: 5 metres
• Recommended use: external/remote temperature sensing
• Connection: designed to connect to compatible controllers and smart home systems
• Placement: external mountable probe for ambient, refrigeration or equipment measurement

How to use

Connect the probe cable to a compatible bleBox controller or another supported input on a smart home gateway. Position the probe tip at the measurement point — for ambient readings, place it away from direct heat sources or drafts; for refrigeration, place inside the cabinet avoiding direct contact with cooling elements. After connection, configure the sensor within the controller or app interface to enable continuous data logging, threshold alarms and automation rules.

Usage recommendations

For accurate long-term readings, avoid coiling the cable tightly near the probe tip, keep the probe away from direct sunlight and strong heat sources, and ensure connectors are protected from moisture. Periodically verify readings against a reference thermometer and update controller firmware for compatibility and stability improvements.
