BleBox thermoBox - heating controller with WiFi communication

Description

ThermoBox is an advanced temperature control module that offers numerous features and capabilities for both residential and commercial applications. With a year-long history of temperature measurements, ThermoBox allows precise monitoring and analysis of temperature changes in various rooms. The device can operate as an independent system, providing flexibility and ease of integration with existing infrastructure.

ThermoBox supports both potential and potential-free connections, and its user-friendly interface is available in the wBox app. The sensor’s operating range is from -50°C to +125°C, allowing for wide applications in various conditions. The schedule and boost mode enable precise adjustment of heating or cooling to meet the user's needs, even in case of sudden temperature changes. Using the free wBox app allows remote control of devices at home, in the garden, or at work from anywhere in the world, requiring only WiFi access. ThermoBox is perfect for controlling water heating systems, including radiators and water-based underfloor heating, with the requirement of an additional 230V solenoid valve or electrothermal head.

The device also offers wireless control of various types of heaters: electric, oil-electric, fan heaters, pool heaters, flow heaters, aquarium and terrarium heaters, heating mats, as well as central domestic hot water and solenoid valves. With the boost mode, users can quickly increase or decrease the temperature for a specified period, ideal for emergency situations. ThermoBox also allows control via a wall button for quick mode toggling, as well as via inBox and the μRemote, ensuring full control over the device. The temperature measurement history enables the selection of appropriate graphs and data analysis with a 5-minute accuracy for the past week and hourly averaged data for the past year.

The advanced scheduling system with an astronomical clock allows for automatic temperature adjustments based on the time of day. ThermoBox is also equipped with a self-diagnostic system that ensures safety and detects measurement errors such as sensor wire cuts or electromagnetic interference. The module is well-suited for electric underfloor heating, offering two operating modes with one or two sensors, enabling precise temperature control both in the room and at the floor level, ensuring the safety of the heated surface.
