Frequently Asked Questions
Amber Temp is an IoT temperature monitoring device from Amber IoT that measures temperature and reports readings wirelessly over the Sigfox 0G network. Designed and supported in South Africa, it enables remote temperature tracking without cellular or Wi-Fi connections. It suits applications where temperature must be monitored continuously and cost-effectively.
Amber Temp takes temperature readings at set intervals and transmits them over the Sigfox 0G low-power network to a backend platform where they can be viewed and analysed. Sending small, infrequent messages keeps power use very low, enabling long battery life. Alerts can be raised when readings move outside a defined range.
IoT temperature monitoring is used in cold chain, pharmaceuticals, food storage, warehousing, server rooms, and agriculture to ensure conditions stay within safe limits. Devices like Amber Temp provide continuous, remote visibility and can flag problems before stock or equipment is damaged. This reduces spoilage, supports compliance, and cuts the need for manual checks.
Yes Amber Temp runs on the Sigfox 0G network, which offers national South African coverage and very low power consumption, so it can operate for long periods on battery in remote or off-grid sites. This makes it suitable for monitoring locations that lack reliable mains power or cellular signal. Readings are still delivered wirelessly for central monitoring.
Amber Temp is designed to support alerting, so an out-of-range temperature can trigger a notification through the backend platform and enable a quick response. The exact thresholds and delivery can be configured to your requirements. Amber IoT can advise on setting this up for cold chain, storage, or equipment-monitoring use cases.
