Honeywell 5821 Wireless Temperature Sensor and Flood Detector

Honeywell 5821 Wireless Temperature Sensor and Flood Detector

The Honeywell 5821 Wireless Temperature Sensor and Flood Detector is the ideal solution for protecting your home or business from unexpected temperature fluctuations and flood conditions. Designed for use in environments such as bathrooms, laundry rooms, kitchens, basements, and more, this versatile device helps prevent damage caused by extreme temperatures and water exposure. With the ability to monitor multiple temperature conditions and detect flooding, the 5821 offers comprehensive protection and peace of mind.

This advanced sensor offers five selectable temperature ranges: Cold (45°F), Warm (75°F), Hot (95°F), Refrigerator Failure (42°F), and Freezer Failure (10°F). It can also detect flooding when water covers the external probe. Whether used as a standalone device or integrated with Honeywell’s Total Connect® Remote Services, the 5821 can send instant alerts via email or text message, enabling you to take swift action to prevent costly damage. Its wireless design ensures easy installation and flexibility, while its long-lasting battery provides up to 10 years of use with minimal maintenance.

Compatible with Honeywell’s 5800 Series wireless receivers, this device is perfect for adding an extra layer of protection to your security system. The sensor includes a built-in “swinger suppression” feature that ensures accurate temperature readings by maintaining a 3°F difference between fault and restore points. With the flexibility to monitor both temperature and flooding simultaneously, the 5821 is an essential tool for safeguarding your home or business.
