Data centres are one of the keystones of modern connected life. They contain an array of powerful computing equipment providing services such as data processing and storage. This equipment is supported by networking switches/routers, power supplies, backup power and cooling systems. The need for high availability, efficient staff utilisation, and the often-remote location, make effective monitoring and timely reactions to maintain safe operating conditions essential.
IoTPortal offers data centre operators a solution for monitoring key parameters such as temperature and humidity across the entire data centre via a large network of sensors. Notifications and alerts prompt staff should conditions be outside of specified limits, whilst the Events feature allows automated reactions to be configured easily to restore optimal conditions by controlling ventilation etc.
A constant temperature is key to keeping a Data Centre running. High temperatures can damage equipment and reduce its lifetime.
Multiple rooms covering a large area in Data Centres need simultaneous monitoring.
Remote locations and limited on-site staff increases the risk of delays in noticing and reacting to issues.
Monitoring solutions often use independent and unconnected systems for different parameters (for example, temperature and air quality).
Sensing and monitoring systems can be complex to set-up, relying on external contractors to configure them.
The system shown uses several of BRT Systems’ sensors to monitor the critical parameters within a Data Centre. The IoTPortal Gateway manages the Long-Distance Sensor Bus consisting of up to 80 sensor units and over distances of 200m per bus allowing use in Data Centres with multiple rooms.
IoTPortal constantly monitors temperature from a large number of sensors providing good coverage of each room. Configurable events allow systems such as air conditioning and ventilation to be controlled to maintain optimal conditions.
Cover large areas and multiple rooms. LDSBus connects sensors and actuators via familiar CAT5e/6 cabling in a simple daisy-chain configuration over distances up to 200m. It provides power to the sensors avoiding the need for separate power cabling or outlets.
Staff can be alerted even when offsite via SMS, Push Notification and Email. Monitor, reconfigure, and manually control the entire system remotely. Data is visualised on intuitive charts via the smartphone app and web application (via web browser) and can be exported for analysis.
IoTPortal connects all sensors and actuators of different types via one common bus (LDSBus). This enables all data to be accessed via one user interface, and allows devices to be controlled in response to sensor readings via IFTT (If This Then that) operation.
Use IoTPortal’s intuitive graphical Zero-Code interface for complete configuration of all Sensors, Actuators, automated Events and Alerts. Configure via the Smartphone App and Web Interface. Set user and group permissions to grant different privileges for editing settings and viewing data.
