Revolutionizing room comfort sensing, Messana presents mSense, a cutting-edge, next-generation room comfort sensor designed to elevate indoor environmental monitoring. Departing from conventional room thermostats solely measuring air temperature, mSense goes beyond by considering multiple parameters crucial for occupant comfort and energy efficiency.

mSense measures the operative temperature, a comprehensive metric combining the influence of air and mean radiant temperature—mirroring the skin’s thermal receptors to deliver more accurate results than traditional air temperature alone. This innovative approach enhances precision in thermal comfort control within indoor spaces.

Furthermore, mSense addresses humidity control, vital for both comfort and health, and particularly crucial in effectively managing radiant cooling systems. The sensor incorporates a stable and accurate humidity measurement system, evaluating the dew-point temperature based on precise readings of humidity and dry bulb temperature.

In its commitment to comprehensive indoor environmental monitoring, mSense offers an optional sophisticated gas sensor. This sensor surpasses the measurement of carbon dioxide (CO₂) alone, analyzing substances directly impacting health to enhance indoor air quality and optimize energy consumption. The Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) sensor monitors equivalent CO₂ levels and Total Volatile Organic Compounds (TVOCs), contributing to a healthier and more energy-efficient indoor environment.

mSense represents a paradigm shift in room comfort sensing, providing a holistic approach to indoor environmental monitoring. With its focus on operative temperature, humidity control, and air quality, mSense stands as a powerful tool to enhance comfort, health, and energy efficiency in residential and commercial spaces.
