+44 1943 465918Sensatronics range for Server Rooms. Could you guide me in the right direction please?
Detailed Question:
i\'m looking for a cost effective solution to monitor the conditions in my server room. i\'ve been looking at the sensatronics site and there\'s a wealth of information but i just wanted a quick hand with settling on the right product. it\'s a small server room with three 42U cabinets and all i want to do is monitor the temperature, humidity, possibly the door open/close stats and send sms messages to a few mobiles when levels reach certain thresholds. i\'ve looked at some of the software packages available there and some of them do things like email throughput and the like and we don\'t need that level of monitoring. could you guide me in the right direction please? i want to keep this fairly simple and at the right price.
The best solution (and the cost) really depends on precisely what you are atttempting to achieve. The Sensatronics range includes two products capable of measuring temperature, relative humidity and door open/close: the Senturion and EM1.
The Senturion is a rack mounted solution with built in temperature, light and humidity probes. You can either mount the unit in each cabinet or place a Senturion into a single cabinet and then run a combined temperature/humidity and door closure probes into the two other cabinets. You would also need a single door closure probe for the cabinet in which the Senturion is located. The Senturion is able to send email alerts, has a visual and audible alert and is capable of creating a historical log.
The Sensatronics EM1 is a wall mounted device witha built-in web interface. In order to alert you and create a historical log you would need SNMP based management software such as SNMPc, Nagios etc. We recommend Intellipool network Monitor
