The CWS220 is an infrared sensor with a 900-MHz radio built in. The sensor measures the surface temperature of an object without physical contact. It is battery-powered and contains a spread-spectrum radio transceiver, so it has no cables to limit its placement. As part of a Campbell Scientific wireless network, it sends data to a CWB100 Wireless Base Station, which then can forward the data to a computer. The 900-MHz frequency is used in the USA and Canada.
