Quick-Connect Temperature Solution

Simplify ambient and contact temperature measurement with the Quick Connect temperature monitoring solution. The Quick-Connect Sensor (X-QCS™) is a single temperature sensor that can be daisy-chained for accurate data capture. The Quick-Connect Adapter (X-QCA™) allows the X-QCS to interface with ControlByWeb® IoT controllers. The latest 400 Series firmware automatically configures sensor IDs and each sensor’s place in a chain, eliminating the need to manually configure each sensor one at a time

Temperature Sensor: X-QCS-T
Single Port Adapter: X-QCA-1 (Controllers with a 1-Wire Bus)
4 Port Adapter: X-QCA-4 (X-406 Only)

Fast and Easy Monitoring with Auto-Detection

It can be time-consuming to manually set up multiple temperature sensors. Often, a single sensor must first be directly connected to a controller. This process must be repeated for every sensor before they can all finally be connected in a daisy chain. This is further complicated if the central system can’t be accessed from the site of the installation. Our 400 Series edge controllers combine with the Quick-Connect Sensor to save time, eliminate complexity, and reduce the potential for errors thanks to auto-detection.

When a chain of X-QCS sensors are plugged into a ControlByWeb controller—such as the X-406™ 1-Wire Multi-Bus Module or any other module with a 1-Wire bus—each sensor’s position in a chain is recorded and the device ID is automatically configured. This is true for both new and existing setups, and even when replacing single temperature sensors midway through an existing chain

A Comprehensive Temperature Sensor Solution

Versatility is top of mind with the X-QCS. Each sensor includes thermally conductive adhesive to attach the copper surface directly to sensitive equipment. They can also be used to measure ambient air temperature. Daisy-chained sensors can be connected via data cables up to 600 feet (180m) in length.
Here are common applications for the Quick-Connect Sensor. For guidance with your specific application

Server Rooms
Strings of sensors can be mounted to various points on individual server racks and at intake and exhaust points. Multiple server racks can be monitored by using longer data cabling.		 HVAC Systems
Monitor temperature across multiple zones and areas, and utilize no-code logic through our IoT controllers to control fans and thermostats and send out timely notifications.
Boiler Rooms
The X-QCS can be used to monitor boiler supply and return lines, and it can also be integrated into a larger system that monitors pressure of industrial boilers and detects water leaks.		 Data Centers
Prevent overheating and potential equipment failure by monitoring servers, power supplies, and cooling units for a comprehensive temperature profile.

  • Data Centers 

Easy Mounting

Sensors can be connected by any length of cable up to 600 feet (180m) of total cable. These sensors are designed to be placed directly on top of sensitive equipment for accurate measurement but are just as capable of taking air temperature. The included double-sided thermal tape is a perfect mounting option, but many methods can be used including tape, zip ties, clamps, and more.
