Monitor Temperature, Humidity & Light for a Healthier Grow Environment
The TrolMaster MBS-TH 3-in-1 Sensor continuously monitors air temperature, relative humidity and light levels, providing the environmental data your Hydro-X controller needs to maintain ideal growing conditions. Whether you're producing leafy greens, tomatoes, peppers or herbs, consistent climate monitoring helps create a healthier environment, reducing plant stress and encouraging stronger, more uniform growth.
Designed as a replacement or additional sensor for the Hydro-X system, the MBS-TH features plug-and-play installation, an integrated photocell for automatic day/night detection and reliable environmental monitoring. Additional sensors can be installed in different grow zones to improve climate management across larger facilities, ensuring each area receives accurate environmental control. Keep the sensor dry and free from condensation to maintain long-term accuracy and reliability.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the TrolMaster MBS-TH measure?
The MBS-TH measures air temperature, relative humidity and light (day/night detection), providing the Hydro-X controller with the environmental information needed to automate your grow room.
Is the MBS-TH included with the Hydro-X controller?
Yes. Every Hydro-X controller already includes one MBS-TH sensor. This product is intended as a replacement or additional sensor for expanding your monitoring coverage.
Why would I install an additional MBS-TH sensor?
Additional sensors are useful for monitoring different areas of larger grow rooms or greenhouses, allowing you to collect more accurate environmental data across multiple growing zones.
Which TrolMaster systems is the MBS-TH compatible with?
The MBS-TH is designed specifically for the Hydro-X Environmental Control System. It is not intended for Aqua-X or other TrolMaster systems.
Does the MBS-TH detect day and night automatically?
Yes. The sensor includes a built-in photocell that automatically detects light levels, allowing the Hydro-X controller to distinguish between day and night operation.
How should the sensor be installed?
Install the sensor at canopy height in a representative area of your grow room. Avoid direct airflow, water spray or condensation, as moisture can reduce sensor accuracy and lifespan.
Is the MBS-TH easy to install?
Yes. The sensor features plug-and-play RJ12 connectivity and includes a 16 ft RJ12 cable plus an RJ12 T-splitter for straightforward installation.
Who is the MBS-TH best suited for?
The MBS-TH is ideal for commercial growers, indoor farms and greenhouse operators who need accurate environmental monitoring to maintain consistent growing conditions and maximise crop quality.
