CargoObserver-Ex-Solar-XL and Track-Solar-XL are specially designed for use cases within explosive environments for rail cars, containers and trailers, as well as when high rate of data transmission is required. Easily mountable on roof-side locations for permanent installations, it is maintenance-free for up to 10 years.
The advantage compared to a device with primary battery or even our smaller solar variant is a significantly higher message update rate.

CargoObserver-Ex-Solar-XL and Track-Solar-XL units have a Wireless MultiProtocol Sensor Interface with Bluetooth Low Energy 5.0 and are ITSS 2 Ready.

CargoObserver-Ex-Solar-XL is ATEX and IECEx Zone 1 certified.
