Aeotec, a company founded in 2006 in Silicon Valley, has long focused its craft on the intelligent automation of electronics through sensor and data-driven decision making. Aeotec looks at a home and envisions how it can be bettered through technology, then works to make it happen. Their friendly and professional support team is available 24/7 to assist with any queries.

Aeotec's latest offering, the Door / Window Sensor 7 Pro, is a 3-in-1 security and intelligence sensor that can monitor the use of doors and windows, as well as connect simple devices to the Z-Wave network. Understanding when a door or window opens or closes is a powerful piece of knowledge within an automation system, enabling the powering of security, safety, and intelligent automation systems.

This German-engineered sensor utilizes leading Gen7 and Z-Wave Plus technology to deliver intelligence and reliability in a slim package. While it is called a door or window sensor, it can be attached to any object that opens or closes, allowing monitoring of items such as alcohol cabinets, medicine cabinets, chests, and drawers.

When the sensor notifies the Z-Wave gateway of an object being opened or closed, the automation software can execute a range of intelligent reactions, including turning lights on or off based on room use, controlling heating and air conditioning, sending notifications, and managing security and safety alerts.

The 3-in-1 Pro version includes a rare-earth magnetic sensor to monitor the separation of doors, windows, and movable objects, a tilt sensor optimized for use with tilt-turn windows, and a universal binary/dry contact sensor to enable the wiring of non-smart electronics into the system.

Aeotec's Door / Window Sensor 7 Pro is 44.3% smaller than its predecessors, yet wholly re-engineered with an all-new elastic, bayonet architecture, making it the smallest, most extensible, and capable security sensor in the Z-Wave ecosystem. Powered by Z-Wave Plus and Z-Wave S2, it can communicate 50% faster and up to 67% further in real-world use.

Optimized for battery life, the sensor features a unique balance of hardware and software optimizations, allowing it to use up to 66% less battery power to communicate via Z-Wave Plus, ensuring extended usage between battery changes.

To use the Door / Window Sensor 7 Pro, a compatible Z-Wave hub is required. The sensor is certified for use with various smart home platforms, including Samsung SmartThings, Vera, Zipabox, HomeSeer, Ring, and more.

In summary, the Aeotec Door / Window Sensor 7 Pro is a powerful, German-engineered, 3-in-1 security and intelligence sensor that can monitor a wide range of objects, enabling intelligent automation and enhancing home security and safety. Its advanced features, compact design, and optimized battery life make it a compelling choice for smart home enthusiasts and security-conscious homeowners alike.
