Ruuvi RuuviTag Pro Sensor (2in1) Industrial Wireless Temperature and Motion
Sensor
Accurate and Durable Temperature Sensor for Versatile Conditions
RuuviTag Pro is a rugged IP certified environmental sensor for temperature,
motion and acceleration monitoring.
The Pro is based on RuuviTag’s successful concept and additionally brings
several new outstanding features to the table. RuuviTag Pro is the toughest
open source sensor on the market.
Waterproof Certified Temperature Sensor
RuuviTag Pro tolerates wet and rough conditions.
The IP68 and IP69K certified RuuviTag Pro (2-in-1) offers a full
protection against water with its fully sealed enclosure. It has been
laboratory tested to work in water depth of up to 50 meters for 24 hours and
to tolerate high pressurised spraying with 80 °C water.
Note! Please keep in mind that Bluetooth signals are strongly attenuated in
the water and range will be significantly reduced. Ruuvi sensors can then be
used in narrow water if you want to maintain connection (for example pool or
jacuzzi). If you want to measure deeper, you can attach the RuuviTag Pro to a
string and take it back to the surface when you want to download the data
history.
Medical Grade Temperature Accuracy
RuuviTag Pro has an extremely accurate temperature sensor on board. The sensor
is designed to meet ASTM E1112 and ISO 80601 requirements for electronic
patient thermometers.
Measurement resolution is 0.01 °C, while absolute accuracy is astounding at
±0.1 °C across the temperature range of –20 to +50 °C, with no calibration.
The sensor units are 100% tested on a production setup that is NIST traceable
and verified with equipment that is calibrated to ISO/IEC 17025 accredited
standards.
Professional Mounting
RuuviTag Pro has two strong mounting ears that allow reliable installation
methods to be used. Wooden ceilings, gyproc walls, concrete foundations, you
name it. Attach and measure professionally wherever you need to.
Wide Temperature Range From -40 to +85 °C
RuuviTag Pro’s casing and electronics are designed to operate without
interruption in a wide range of temperatures. Maintenance is minimal because
the included Ruuvi CR2477T wide temperature battery lasts up to 2 years.

Compatibility
Wireless and battery powered temp sensors: the Ruuvi
Something quite new, and far more popular then I (Victron) anticipated to be
honest: the support for the Ruuvi temperature sensors. Being powered by a
small coin cell in the sensor, as well as wireless, they are super simple to
install. And as such perfect to remotely keep an eye on your yacht or cabin in
the winter. Or fridge or freezer temperatures, and so forth.
I have installed and am using some myself as well, and they are great. Less
stress about pipes freezing up, as well as mould growing: it also reports
relative humidity.
Here is a picture showing the sensor, and the reported data:

Here is how the data looks on the VRM Portal:
A few notes:
- To read data from the Ruuvi sensor, a Bluetooth USB adapter is required. For CCGX, Venus GX, and also for the Cerbo GX. A list of suitable and tested Bluetooth USB adapters is available in the Victron Venus 2.80 Blog posted on 31/01/2022.
- Per v2.82, multiple Bluetooth USB adapters can be installed and will all be used to read data from the Ruuvis. This is nice, as it allows expanding the range by using a USB extension cable.
See the documentation for more details about this feature.
Controlling a relay on temperature
The relays on the GX device can now be controlled by temperature. For example
to switch a fan, or heating pad. Here are two screenshots showing the
configuration:
![Display of the Cerbo GX on how to control the cerbo temperature relays using
the input from the RuuviTag]
In above example, the second relay will switch when the temperature in the
engine bay rises above 45 degrees, starting the fan. And it will switch off
once the temperature drops below 40 degrees C.
Both the first and the second relay can be configured to be controlled by
temperature. And two sets of conditions can be configured, also for the same
relay.
