Yes, the sensors have batteries in them. Projected life around 5 years.
Brett: Don't mean to keep 'beating' this horse but I see no way to access batteries on my sensors. Could it be that there are two different type sensors...one with batteries and one type without? / Larry

"What do I do about a low sensor battery alert?
When you receive a low Sensor Battery alert, contact your dealer/distributor. The Sensor should be returned for replacement. The cost of a replacement “Sensor” is less than the cost of a new Sensor. Contact your dealer/distributor or PressurePro for information."
Brett: Appears that the entire sensor has to be returned with a new one obtained from Pressure Pro. Still don't believe we (users) can replace weak sensor batteries. Looks like the sensor has to be replaced.
That's what he's telling you... Your sensors DO have batteries, they're just not user replaceable like some other models. TST for instance, has a model 510 system that also has sealed sensors that require exchanging every 5 years or so, and a model 507 system, that has user replaceable batteries, that need changing once a year or so. The long term cost of the user replaceable battery sensors is much lower than the sealed units, but does require more work on the users part.
