This SHT10 sensor is a true gem! It's anti - rust, super robust, and extremely precise, perfect for enterprise - class and industrial - level uses. You can use it in all sorts of places like telepoint base stations, electronic control cabinets, production sites, warehouses, machine rooms, greenhouses, animal farms, and medicine storage areas. The metallic package is a great feature as it allows the sensor to work well in very dusty or other harsh conditions. And the wall - hanging style makes installation a breeze.
The metallic mesh on the sensor is made with a special sintering process that includes copper infiltration. This boosts its temperature resistance, pressure resistance, and wear resistance. With a 2 - wire serial interface and internal voltage regulation, integrating it into your system is quick and easy. It's also Arduino compatible, and we'll provide the necessary library.
A little heads - up: the ground wire is blue, not black.

- Digital Temperature and Humidity Sensor x1
Using this digital temperature and humidity sensor is straightforward. First, find a suitable place for it. Thanks to its wall - hanging style, you can easily mount it on a wall in your desired location like a greenhouse or a machine room. When connecting the wires, remember the color - coding: red for 5v, blue for ground, yellow for the clock wire, and black for the data wire. And don't forget, the ground wire is blue, not black as you might expect.
For system integration, if you're using an Arduino, it's a great fit and we've provided the library to make things even easier. Just follow the normal Arduino integration steps and you'll be up and running in no time.
As for maintenance, the metallic package is designed to handle harsh conditions, but it's still a good idea to keep it clean. Wipe it gently with a soft cloth every once in a while to remove any dust or debris. If you notice any issues with the readings, check the connections first to make sure all wires are properly attached. Also, keep it within the specified temperature and humidity ranges (- 10 - 80°C and 0 - 100%RH) to ensure accurate and long - lasting performance.
