HYDROS Slim Temperature Sensor Application Examples
The HYDROS Slim Temperature Sensor is an easy and affordable way to prevent your aquarium water from becoming too cold or too hot. It monitors the water temperature in your aquarium so you can keep it within the safe zone for fish, coral, and invertebrates.

• Example 1: You can configure your HYDROS app to set an alert when aquarium water temperatures deviate from your set "safe zone" temperature. For example, receive a mobile alert if the water temperature is higher than 82°F or lower than 78°F. You can also set HYDROS WiFi controllable outlets (i.e., HYDROS 4 Outlet WiFi AC Power Strip or HYDROS WiFi Smart Plug) with a heater, chiller, or fan plugged into them turn on or off when the temperature is outside the safe zone.
• Example 2: You can use multiple temperature sensors on your system for added safety and redundancy. For example, you can place one temperature sensor in your display aquarium and another in your sump. This is especially beneficial if your sump is in your basement while your display tank is on another floor of the house. The Slim Temperature Sensor is completely submersible so you can easily place it somewhere discreet, like in the back of an all-in-one aquarium, in the overflow, or tucked away in one of the chambers of your sump.

General Information Hydros aquarium controllers are the next generation of automated aquarium devices. Rather than relying on each individual device’s brain and programming capacity, the Hydros Control units have their own CPU and control capabilities. Hydros Control devices remove the problem of incompatible ports and need to continually add modules to expand your aquarium’s automation system. This new technology is called the Hydros Sense Port. The Sense Port is an entirely new concept in aquarium monitoring technology. A Sense Port is a generic input port that can accept data from numerous different types of sensors. Drive Ports provide 12-volt power for controlling ATO pumps, cooling fans, and other devices. Hydros is the future of automation!
