Gaia 300

Gaia 300 is an electronic device that records temperature using type K thermocouples and wirelessly sends the data to the cloud. The readings can be viewed online through the Maturix In-situ web portal.

The integrated Bluetooth® capability in Gaia 300 enables users to retrieve data directly through their mobile devices. This feature is particularly advantageous in areas with poor or no coverage.

While both Gaia 200 and Gaia 300 utilise type K thermocouples for temperature monitoring and wireless data transmission to the cloud, Gaia 300 introduces significant enhancements. The new model features integrated Bluetooth® capability for seamless data retrieval using mobile devices, internal memory backup for data retention in areas with poor or no coverage, and three Type K thermocouple channels for simultaneous monitoring at multiple points.

The device transmits temperature readings wirelessly to the cloud using the Sigfox network or via Bluetooth®. Sigfox is a global wireless network dedicated to the Internet of Things (IoT), known for its low power consumption and longer range compared to WiFi and Bluetooth. You can set up a Sigfox Gateway at your job site to create coverage – even at remote locations.

No, you can access temperature and strength readings from your computer or smartphone anytime, anywhere, as long as you are connected to the internet. After installing the equipment, you gain the flexibility to monitor temperature and strength development online in real-time, providing valuable insights remotely.

In the case of poor or no coverage, being on the job site near the device is beneficial for seamless data access. Gaia 300 allows users to sync stored data to the cloud via Bluetooth®, ensuring continuous monitoring even in challenging connectivity scenarios.

The installation process is quick and straightforward. Secure the thermocouples to the rebar, connect them to Gaia 300, and position the transmitter securely. Gaia 300 facilitates automatic data transmission every 15 minutes once a thermocouple is connected, ensuring a smooth and reliable monitoring process.

Only the inexpensive thermocouples are embedded in the concrete. Gaia 300 is mounted next to the cast and can be reused repeatedly. This provides excellent flexibility and helps maintain low costs per monitoring.

Please refer to the Gaia 300 Quick Start Guide for instructions on installing batteries.

The battery lifetime depends on the usage and the conditions. When the thermocouple is inserted 24/7, the batteries last up to 8 months before requiring replacement. In typical operation, Gaia 300 will have a battery life of 1-2 years.

The number of devices required depends on the nature of the project. Gaia 300 is a three-channel transmitter, enabling the connection of up to three thermocouples per device. To determine the necessary quantity of devices, assess the number of monitoring positions that require simultaneous measurement.

Gaia 300 has an IP64 rating, meaning it is designed to be dust-tight and can withstand water spray from any direction.

You can use Type K thermocouples with Gaia 300.

Maturix stands out as an advanced solution for wireless concrete monitoring, earning the trust of leading companies worldwide in the construction industry.

It is a cost-effective solution since only the inexpensive thermocouple is embedded into the concrete. Gaia 300 is mounted next to the cast and can be reused repeatedly, ensuring a swift return on your investment.

Gaia 300’s internal memory backup, featuring encrypted data storage, ensures the preservation of critical monitoring data even in locations with limited Sigfox coverage or poor connectivity. This advanced security measure allows for data storage, facilitating access to past measurements and maintaining a comprehensive record of the curing process.

The memory will contain the last 35620 measurements performed by the Gaia 300 – equal to one full year of operation. Once the memory is full, the Gaia 300 will automatically delete the oldest measurement to accommodate new measurements.
