Burk Technology’s Rack Room Environmental Monitoring Package provides early warning of abnormal environmental conditions before they can develop into costly equipment failures.
It detects HVAC equipment failure, power outages, smoke, flooding, increased fan noise, heat rise in racks, excessive humidity and intrusions.
The package includes a Climate Guard Environmental Monitor (Plus-X EM32) equipped with sensors for flood, smoke, humidity and temperature. Its Tri-Temp sensor array combines three pre-wired temperature sensors for mounting at the bottom, middle and top of an equipment rack, providing a real-time view of heat rise from air inlet to outlet.
Sensors track changes in light and sound levels over time. More sensors can be added based on your station’s requirements.
Climate Guard’s web interface displays current and historical sensor data and alerts. Colorful web-based charts display variations in heat distribution over time, tracking normal fluctuations due to HVAC operating cycles as well as identifying abnormal temperature variations. Alarm thresholds trigger alerts via email, text and SNMP, giving operators warning of impending failures.
The Plus-X EM32 can operate on its own or integrated with an ARC Plus on the network. Jet Active Flowcharts in ARC Plus can respond to environmental events, enabling backup cooling systems, shutting down non-critical equipment or shifting to backup facilities. AutoPilot custom views integrate environmental data with other critical broadcast system parameters for a comprehensive view of facility performance.
