Temperature and Humidity Monitoring System for Data Center
The Freshliance COEUS WIFI wireless temperature and humidity data logger is the best choice among the Freshliance temperature data logger products. These wireless temperature and humidity monitoring systems will help you to keep your data center in a more suitable environment.
Maintaining the proper temperature and humidity levels in a data center is a critical task for any organization with an on-premises IT environment. Data center hardware is designed to operate within specific temperature and humidity ranges.
What is the recommended temperature & humidity for data centers?
ASHRAE(American Society of Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers), a widely influential organization, sets all sorts of industry guidelines. Following ASHRAE standards can make sure your data centers get appropriate cooling.
Grade | Type | Temperature | Humidity |
A1 | enterprise servers and other storage products | 15°C (59°F) to 32°C (89.6°F) | 20% and 80% |
A2 | general volume servers, storage products, personal computers, and workstations | 10°C (50°F) to 35°C (95°F) | 20% and 80% |
A3 | personal computers, private workstations, and volume servers (can withstand a far broader range) | 5°C (41°F) to 40°C (104°F) | 8% and 85% |
A4 | certain types of IT equipment like personal computers, storage products, workstations, and volume servers | 5°C (41°F) to 45°C (113°F) | 8% and 90% |
What is the risk when the temperature out of control?
Excessive heat puts a Data Center at risk of failure. This failure can lead to downtime, which causes lost data and revenue. Based on a Gartner study, it is estimated that the cost of one hour of downtime can amount to up to $336,000 per hour or $5,600 per minute.
How to monitoring environment for data center?
To protect your data center, you should place temperature and humidity data loggers throughout your server room. Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) recommends no less than 6 temperature sensors per rack in order to safeguard the equipment. They should be mounted at the top, middle & bottom and this both at the front & back of rack. Freshliance specializes in providing IoT solutions for temperature and humidity and offering stand-alone IoT environmental monitoring and control products such as PDF/CSV, Bluetooth, NFC, WIFI, NB-IoT, LORA, 4G/5G, etc. temperature and humidity data loggers. These temperature loggers will give the information you need to monitor varying humidity levels. They will also provide an early warning of any threats to your equipment, so you can act quickly before problems turn into critical issues.
