ATEK Wi-Fi temperature transmitter: inputs and probe guide

A transmitter with separately logged probe inputs

The ATEK WiFi Digital Temperature Transmitter, 2 Inputs is listed for fridges, freezers, incubators, and water baths. Its model reference is ATEK-T-WF-1W. The catalog describes a two-input digital temperature transmitter that logs each probe independently to the ATEK platform. Keep that description of the inputs distinct from the contents supplied with the product.

The ATEK product page says one calibrated digital probe is included. The second input accepts an optional second probe. A comparison should therefore record the available inputs and the included probe separately. Do not assume that the optional probe is included because the transmitter has another input. Buyers in the United States and Canada can use that distinction to make their inquiry about the required configuration more precise.

Preserve the labels on the temperature figures

The catalog gives a probe temperature range of −40 to +60 °C, calibrated accuracy of 0.1 °C, and resolution of 0.01 °C. Record those as separate entries. The accuracy figure is not the resolution figure, even though both use degrees Celsius. When sharing the specifications with another team, retain the range, the calibrated-accuracy wording, and the resolution label rather than presenting the values without context.

Decision rule: Start by identifying the inputs and probes required for your proposed use. Compare the documented temperature range, calibrated accuracy, and resolution with the corresponding fields in your requirements. Ask ATEK about the optional probe and any conditions that need clarification before treating the configuration as selected.

The description names fridges, freezers, incubators, and water baths as applications. It does not identify every equipment model or explain every probe arrangement. Ask which documented probe configuration applies to your equipment rather than inferring that a listed application supplies a complete installation plan.

Read the glycol-bottle statement as a specific product claim

The catalog describes a glycol-bottle probe base that buffers brief door-open events and presents it in connection with product-temperature measurement. Retain that attribution when discussing the feature. The description does not give a duration for a brief event or a figure for the amount of buffering. Do not assign either value from the range, accuracy, or resolution specifications.

If this feature matters to your selection, ask ATEK how the supplied probe base is intended to be used and what documentation explains its measurement behavior. Request the information relevant to your intended arrangement. This guide does not infer positioning, a response time, or a relationship to every stored item from the catalog sentence.

Review connectivity and power independently

The listed network features are Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz, WPA2-Enterprise connectivity, and real-time streaming. Ask which supported configuration applies to your intended network and what information is needed for setup. The named connectivity option does not provide a complete configuration procedure or describe every network arrangement.

Power is listed as 5 V / 500 mA DC, with an internal rechargeable battery backup. Record the external supply and the backup as distinct fields. The catalog statement does not supply a battery runtime. If runtime is a selection criterion, ask for the documented value and its conditions. Do not infer that duration from the external power entry.

Compare the enclosure, display, and records

The enclosure is listed as 84 × 84 × 32 mm. The display is backlit, and the description lists min/max reset and power-loss detection. Those entries support a feature comparison. Ask for the applicable drawings or operating instructions when dimensions and feature names alone do not answer your equipment questions.

The catalog says the calibration certificate automatically links by serial number. Ask ATEK how that link is accessed and what the associated certificate contains if those details are needed for your records. Do not infer a calibration schedule or an additional service from the existence of the certificate.

Keep the storage duration separate from storage behavior

The description lists 6 months of on-board storage. That is the stated duration. It does not, by itself, document network-interruption behavior, retrieval steps, or how readings are transferred after an interruption. Request those details if your requirements depend on them.

Use the device page to review the supplied configuration and listed specifications. Visit the ATEK shop to compare other offered devices, and confirm outstanding probe, network, or documentation questions with ATEK before selecting the configuration.
