Overview
Do you need to control the access to the inside of a trailer when you transport valuable goods? Want to do it without having to wire the trailer? Frotcom’s WDOS-1 Wireless Door Open Sensor is your choice.
WDOS-1 is a door open sensor that can be used in most logistics environments to detect when a door is opened and closed. It then sends a wireless message through a receiver connected to the Frotcom in-cab GPS tracker, which in turn send it to the Frotcom Data Center.
The switch/magnet is attached to the door and frame and the variable length cable can be provided to meet your individually determined requirements to best mount the transmitter box.
