💧 6 years. Almost no maintenance.
Installed our DL-MBX ultrasonic level sensor in Dübendorf, CH in June 2020. Haven't touched it since.
Still measuring every 10 min. Captured the June 2024 floods (905M CHF damage, Lake Zurich danger level 4) in real time.

🌼 Spring awakening in Zurich — can you spot the three sensors hiding in this meadow?
No power grid, no maintenance — just data, quietly transmitted via LoRaWAN®. While the buttercups bloom, they simply keep measuring.
Which three are they and what do they measure? Drop your guess in the comments 👇
Small hint: we reported on this project in our newsletter and webnews

Happy 1st of May!
16 sensors, 16 very different workplaces – but behind every single one: a person.
A researcher. An engineer. A technician. Someone in a city team, a utility, on a farm. People whose work turns sensor readings into better decisions for our environment.
This one's for them.
P.S. Got a Decentlab sensor of your own? Show us – we're collecting pictures for our next collage. 📸
☀️ Your city's summer heat map is being drawn right now — long before the first heatwave.
We measure it:
🌡️ Air — temperature & humidity
-> DL-SHT35, DL-LP8P
🔥 Surfaces — radiant temperature on asphalt, squares, facades
--> DL-ITST, DL-BLG
💨 Wind & weather — air movement, gusts, precipitation
--> DL-ATM22, DL-ATM41G2
🌳 Soil & vegetation — soil moisture around urban trees and green spaces
--> DL-SMTP, DL-SDD
🛠️ Some things a machine just can't do. Our sensors still get a human touch where it matters most.
Our DL-LP8P for #LoRaWAN® measures CO₂, temperature, humidity, and barometric pressure — built for:
– Indoor air quality & smart buildings
– Ventilation control
– Urban CO₂ monitoring
– Climate research

🌬️ You can't see CO₂.
You can't feel particulate matter.
But your sensors can — 24/7, for years!
Our LoRaWAN® air monitoring family has grown to 18 dedicated sensors, covering the full spectrum.
From urban rooftops to alpine research stations, every sensor is built for the same thing: long-term, maintenance-free deployment in the field.

#IoT air sensors. One platform. Battery-powered, wireless, maintenance-free.
🌳 Want to watch trees grow?
Our DL-ZN1 dendrometers reveal: trees shrink by day, expand at night, and only grow on surprisingly few days per year. A #WSL study shows spruce, fir, and beech are growing less despite warmer springs. Less growth = less carbon stored.
#TreeNet tracks this across Swiss forests – using our DL-ZN1 dendrometers.

We breathe over 10,000 liters of air every day – with no idea what's in it.
Our DL-PM sensor has been measuring particulate matter continuously for five years. The data shows winter inversions, New Year's Eve spikes, and that air quality has no quiet season.
The patterns only emerge when you measure continuously.

Built in the lab. Proven in the wild. 🌧️
Every DL-TBRG rain gauge is carefully assembled and tested before it ships — then mounted on a post somewhere between nowhere and the horizon.
0.1 mm resolution. LoRaWAN®. Battery-powered. Built for remote precipitation monitoring — from flood early warning to smart agriculture.
Spring is back, and so is the rain. Time to get your monitoring in place.
