Description

The BME280 probe combines Bosch’s high-precision MEMS sensing technology within a sealed stainless steel enclosure, providing reliable environmental data acquisition. The integrated sensor uses capacitive sensing for humidity, a piezoresistive sensor for pressure, and a bandgap sensor for temperature, all digitally conditioned and output via I2C.

Designed for demanding applications, the stainless steel housing offers protection against moisture and corrosion. The attached 1-meter cable allows for remote mounting, making it suitable for integration into HVAC systems, weather stations, agricultural monitoring setups, and industrial process control environments where consistent, accurate data is critical.

Key Features

  • All-in-one environmental sensing: temperature, relative humidity, and barometric pressure.
  • High-accuracy performance: ±0.5°C for temperature and ±0.3% RH for humidity at 25°C.
  • Robust stainless steel probe construction for durability in harsh conditions.
  • Digital I2C interface ensures noise-resistant communication and simple wiring.
  • Broad operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.
  • Wide pressure sensing range from 300 hPa to 1100 hPa.
  • Low power consumption suitable for battery-powered IoT nodes.
  • Optimized performance-to-cost ratio for professional and industrial monitoring.

Applications

  • HVAC system performance monitoring and climate control.
  • Precision agriculture for greenhouse and soil environment tracking.
  • Weather station and atmospheric data logging networks.
  • Indoor air quality (IAQ) monitoring in smart buildings.
  • Industrial process monitoring where temperature, humidity, and pressure are critical.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage range for this BME280 probe?

The probe operates from 3.0V to 5.0V DC, making it directly compatible with both 3.3V logic systems like ESP32 or Raspberry Pi and standard 5V Arduino boards without requiring a logic level shifter.

How do I connect and communicate with this sensor?

The sensor uses the I2C communication protocol. Connect the probe's cable to your microcontroller's I2C pins (SCL and SDA), provide 3.3V or 5V power and a common ground. You will need a suitable library, such as the Adafruit BME280 library, to read the digital data.

Is the stainless steel probe waterproof?

The stainless steel housing provides robust protection against moisture and corrosion, making it suitable for damp environments. However, for full submersion, verify the IP rating of the cable gland and connection point, as the cable entry is typically the limiting factor.

What is the accuracy of the temperature and humidity readings?

At 25°C, the sensor provides an accuracy of ±0.5°C for temperature and ±0.3% relative humidity for humidity. Accuracy may vary slightly across the full operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

Can I use this probe for outdoor weather monitoring?

Yes, its stainless steel construction, wide operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C), and integrated pressure sensing make it well-suited for outdoor weather stations. For permanent installation, ensure the cable connection is properly weather-sealed.
