Using these environmental and remote monitoring systems, you can keep your IT equipment safe and sound. NETBOTZ 750 FEATURES & BENEFITS FEATURES • Physical access control Authorized users can get access to equipment via proximity card authentication. • Surveillance Because of motion detection and recording, it is possible to connect a visual record with an access or environmental warning, which expedites root cause study. • Compliance ready. The rack access handle kits track who enters and exits the enclosures, making it simple for the organisation to meet data security regulations. • Native wireless sensor support A total of 47 NetBotz wireless temperature and humidity sensors can be controlled by a single NetBotz wireless temperature and humidity sensor. GEIST WATCHDOG 100-P UK (INCLUDES ON-BOARD TEMP, HUMIDITY AND DEW-POINT SENSORS AND CAPACITY TO ADD 8 ADDITIONAL EXTERNAL SENSORS) Vertiv (Vertiv) Geist (Geist) offers a wide range of monitored and switched rPDUs with network interfaces for remote monitoring, administration, and automated alerts. These devices give critical information on how to improve data centre energy efficiency while reducing downtime by notifying users when user-defined power and environmental conditions are violated. Intelligence-enhanced rPDUs Monitored rPDUs provide remote access to the rPDU’s current, voltage, real power, apparent power, power factor, and kilowatt hours. Monitoring configurations are offered at the unit and output levels. Switched rPDUs include all of the functionality of monitored rPDUs plus the option to remotely turn on, off, or reset power at each outlet. Monitoring configurations are offered at both the unit and output levels. Basic and Metered rPDUs Basic rPDUs offer dependable, space-saving, and cost-effective power distribution in the rack for a variety of IT applications. VertivTM GeistTM offers a wide range of monitored and switched rPDUs with network interfaces for remote monitoring, administration, and automated alerts. These devices give critical information on how to improve data centre energy efficiency while reducing downtime by notifying users when user-defined power and environmental conditions are violated. Remotely monitored rPDU power consumption data comprises rPDU current, voltage, apparent power, power factor, and kilowatt hours. Monitoring configurations are offered at both the unit and output levels. Switched rPDUs combine the benefits of monitored rPDUs with the ability to remotely turn on, off, or reset electricity to each outlet. Monitoring configurations are offered at both the unit and output levels. All basic and metered rPDUs provide dependable, space-saving, and cost-effective power distribution in the rack for all IT applications while meeting a wide range of power distribution requirements. Environmental monitor with temperature, humidity, and dew-point sensors on-board, one relay contact, and the possibility to connect up to eight additional external sensors (4 RJ12 and 4 Dry Contact/0-5V), built-in PoE, and British power supply included. Benefits: • Monitor the data centre, server room, and network closet environments strategically to protect critical IT infrastructure. • View real-time sensor data and receive alerts via email, SNMP, or Email-to-SMS using a secure online interface. • Receive alerts when something is out of range, allowing you to resolve the issue before it causes downtime. • A three-year standard warranty that can be extended to five years with product registration. This entry was published on the 1st of August, 2010. FEATURES • Temperature, humidity, and dew point sensors are built into the device. • Increase the number of sensors to improve monitoring capabilities. • To install and setup it, all you need is a simple web browser. Best suited for: Services in finance, banking, and insurance Professional Services in the Military, Defence, Aerospace, and Missiles Broadcast. Entertainment data centres, colocation, and hosting Education, government, healthcare, manufacturing, telecommunications, and retail and wholesale transportation are all examples of industries.

MOBILE DEMONSTRATION SOLUTION FOR HWG-PWR3. DEVICE CAN BE USED AS A TEMPORARY 1 PHASE (230V) METER. ONE POWER METER INCLUDED. READY FOR EXHIBITIONS. The HWg-PWR3/12/25 is a smart Ethernet gateway that collects data from up to 3/12/25 external metres over the M-Bus. External M-Bus (EN 13757) metres can be used to remotely monitor the use of water, electricity, gas, or heat. Data may be analysed using the Web (graphs), SNMP, emails, or log files. The HWg-PWR3/12/25 sends notifications through email or SMS, which may be routed over the same LAN’s HWg-SMS-GW3 dedicated SMS Gateway. A built-in web server is used for setup. To remotely monitor the device, use the SensDesk Technology website and the SensDesk Mobile app for iOS and Android. HWg-PDMS and HWg-Trigger are interchangeable. HWg-PWR devices monitor external M-Bus metres over the network using M2M protocols (Modbus/TCP, SNMPv1, XML…). Because they support over 50 SNMP and SCADA applications, HWg-PWR devices may be used as a standalone solution or integrated into a wide range of monitoring and control systems. Features: • connects three, twelve, or twenty-five external metres through an M-Bus (EN 13757-2) interface, enabling the logging of 170.000 data points (3 values per 15 minutes = 590 days). • converts consumption without the use of a computer or other software (for example, from [kWh] to a currency). • M2M communication protocols such as Modbus/TCP, SNMP, and XML allow for integration into more complex monitoring systems. • LAN connection A built-in web server is utilised for setup. • Compatibility with a wide range of third-party software applications (SCADA, etc.). The HWg-SDK includes programming examples for the product (Borland C++, MS Visual, VB, C#, PHP, JAVA, and others). Accessories and metres that can be used (tested) Applications and usage: • Remote monitoring of electricity metres in small server rooms and BTS is possible. • The energy use of rental units is being tracked. • Calculating energy usage in challenging or remote areas • Keeping your energy costs under control • Individual line overloads are analysed in three-phase wiring. • Undervoltage testing of electrical wiring • The flow of liquid is being observed.
