SensEver Alfa C
A thermoelectric generator mounted between the pipe wall and ambient air converts the natural temperature differential (ΔT) directly into electricity.
Highlights:
• Deployment in hard-to-reach places
• Enables higher data rate and quality
• No compromise due to battery lifetime
• Intended for use in harsh environments
Maintenance-Free Sensors, Powered by Heat Alone
Rethink Power Supply
SensEver® Alfa-C is a self-powered, zero-maintenance industrial sensor that harvests energy directly from process heat, utilizing an integrated thermoelectric generator to convert the pipe-to-ambient temperature differential into reliable electricity. By completely eliminating wires, external power sources, and disposable batteries, it removes recurring battery-replacement logistics, slashes the total cost of ownership, and significantly lowers your facility’s environmental footprint. Safe to install on remote, embedded, or hazardous pipe runs that are otherwise difficult to access, the Alfa-C delivers continuous, fit-and-forget monitoring for as long as the pipe remains in service.
01 Zero maintenance visits The sensor is powered for as long as the pipe is in service – no scheduled battery swaps, ever. | 02 No batteries to manage Eliminates sourcing, shipping, stocking, and disposing of batteries across your sensor fleet. |
03 Lower cost of ownership Removing recurring service calls cuts labor, logistics, and unplanned downtime at scale. | 04 Reaches hard-to-access points No physical access needed for upkeep – deploy on embedded, remote, or hazardous pipe runs safely. |
05 Self-powered, no external input Runs entirely on the pipe-to-air temperature difference – no mains power or charging infrastructure. | 06 Lower environmental footprint Fewer disposable batteries in the field supports plant sustainability and waste-reduction targets. |
