How can we evaluate the long lifespan of our Nexelec sensors?

Component quality: a determining factor

First of all, the lifespan of our Nexelec sensors depends on the quality of the components we use. We select high-quality components designed to withstand different conditions. Replaceable lithium batteries, for example, play a crucial role. These batteries not only offer high capacity and high energy, but also provide a high and stable voltage response throughout their service life. Each measurement taken on these batteries guarantees their performance and longevity, thus ensuring constant reliability. Accurate measurement of component capacity data, particularly for batteries, humidity and temperature at different levels is essential to ensure that our Nexelec sensors, including those that measure temperature and humidity, operate optimally over the long term. The data collected by these Nexelec sensors at each measurement level is processed to provide reliable and essential information. Nexelec sensors are designed for long-lasting performance, meeting the requirements of the most varied environments and providing accurate data at all levels for optimised management.

In addition, these batteries have a low self-discharge rate. This means that they lose only about 1% of their capacity per year, even when not in use. This characteristic is essential to guarantee the longevity of Nexelec sensors. Each measurement of the self-discharge of these batteries confirms their exceptional long-term performance. Thanks to this low capacity loss, our Nexelec sensors continue to operate efficiently in any type of indoor environment, thus ensuring constant reliability at every level. The precise measurement of this self-discharge at each level is a key indicator of the durability of Nexelec sensors, particularly those used in sensitive indoor spaces. This data and these measurements guarantee optimal performance and more efficient energy management at all levels in various environments.

The importance of battery autonomy

Battery autonomy is another key element. The batteries used in our sensors are specially designed for Nexelec products with a long service life. They have low base currents and periodic pulses that allow for energy-efficient use. This considerably reduces the frequency with which batteries need to be replaced, which not only lowers maintenance costs but also contributes to a more sustainable environment. Each Nexelec product is designed to maximise energy efficiency, guaranteeing a long service life for each sensor. These measures ensure that each sensor Nexelec retains its performance over the long term. This special attention to Nexelec products makes it possible to offer solutions that combine performance, reliability and respect for the environment. Thanks to regular measurements, Nexelec ensures that it offers products with optimised durability and energy efficiency.

Online calculation tool to estimate autonomy

To help our customers estimate the battery life of their products, we have developed an online calculation tool available on our website: Nexelec Support (in French). This tool allows the autonomy of the products to be evaluated according to different parameters such as transmission modes, network parameters, including LoRaWan, and LED activation time. It is also accessible via a QR code available in our technical guide, thus facilitating direct access to the tool for an accurate estimate of the autonomy of each product in our LoRaWan range, while taking into account aspects related to the attachment.

Thanks to this tool, users can obtain an accurate estimate of the lifespan of their LoRaWan sensors, including the attachment of their components. This allows for better planning and management of the products in our LoRaWan range, thus guaranteeing optimal performance over the long term, while ensuring a reliable and durable attachment of each product.

A commitment to environmental sustainability

Finally, producing long-lasting sensor devices contributes to protecting the environment. By reducing the frequency with which batteries, sensor devices and their mounting systems need to be replaced, we are reducing the amount of electronic waste. This means less discarded material and a reduction in the overall ecological footprint of our product. Each product is designed to maximise durability and minimise environmental impact. A strong and durable binding also ensures the longevity of the product, contributing to the reduction of maintenance requirements and the reduction of the long-term environmental impact, while guaranteeing the continued performance of our product. By favouring highly durable products, we offer solutions that respect the environment while maintaining optimal efficiency for each product.
