Accurate Data, Easily

Get the measurement accuracy you need – wherever you need it – without having to remove loggers from their deployed locations to offload data. All you need is a mobile phone or tablet running the free HOBOconnect app. No PC software to install, and no cables to connect!


Legendary Reliability

HOBO MX2300 temp/RH loggers are built to withstand the elements. They feature a rugged weatherproof housing designed for long-term studies – even in harsh climates. Their compact size and built-in mounting holes make deployment simple, with no need for mounting brackets in most cases.   Plus, wireless communication means these loggers can be deployed entirely inside our RS1 solar radiation shield for high reliability, while still being easy to offload with a mobile device.


Choice of Models

The HOBO MX2300 Series offers five models, covering a broad range of outdoor monitoring applications, from agricultural research to forest ecology studies. The series includes internal sensor models that are highly durable and easy to deploy and external probe models that are well-suited for monitoring conditions in soils, water, walls, and more. See all Models

Relative Humidity Sensor* (MX2301A, MX2302A only)

Range 0 to 100% RH, -40° to 70°C (-40° to 158°F); exposure to conditions
below -20°C (-4°F) or above 95% RH may temporarily increase the
maximum RH sensor error by an additional 1%
Accuracy ±2.5% from 10% to 90% (typical) to a maximum of ±3.5% including
hysteresis at 25°C (77°F); below 10% RH and above 90% RH ±5% typical
Resolution 0.01%
Drift <1% per year typical

*Per RH sensor manufacturer data sheet 

The solar radiation shield is recommended for temperature and relative humidity measurement accuracy in locations exposed to direct or reflected solar radiation.

Mounts on tripods, masts, or flat vertical surfaces. The RS1 is ideal for use with loggers such as the HOBO MX2300, HOBO Pendant and U-Series data loggers. The following loggers require mounting brackets for use with the RS1:

With the addition of a MX2300-RS-BRACKET for mounting the logger inside the solar radiation shield, you have a fully encapsulated Temp/RH Data logging system, ideal for small farming applications or microclimate monitoring.
