The World’s Oldest and Largest Manufacturer of Wired and Wireless Sensor Solutions

Deploying the AKCP monitoring solution creates a Digital Twin of your data center. A virtual copy of the physical data center used to simulate scenarios, predict performance and improve efficiency and reliability.


From Simple Sensor Monitoring to Hyperscale Data Centers

Sensors Solutions

From the simple to the complex. Deployed in data centers, remote sites, cold chain and warehouses.

Data Center Monitoring

Data center sensor solutions that prevent disaster while assisting in reducing energy usage.

Reduce Energy Costs

Save energy costs by focusing cooling capacity. sensorCFD provides visualization of where your air is going and where it needs to be.

Release Stranded Capacity

Maximize performance and release stranded capacity. Ensure that your air is cooling servers doing work and not being wasted cooling unnecesary space.

Monitor Thermal Risk

Protect IT equipment and monitor for hotspots in your racks. Meet ASHRAE recommendations for data center operating temperatures.

CO2 Reduction

Efficient use of cooling capacity results in improved carbon emissions. AKCP aids your corporate philosophy of achieving Net Zero emissions.

Realtime Insights

AKCPro Server DCIM provides realtime insights to data center performance metrics such as PUE. 2D and 3D heatmaps, ∆T and ∆P, humidity, security power and assets.

Return on Investment

Reduced energy costs, lower carbon footprint, increased capacity, mitigate hot spots. All of the above result in return on investment. Lower OpEx = higher margins.

WHAT IS MY PUE?

Data Center PUE is a metric used to determine how efficiently your power is being utilized. A ratio of cooling power to IT power consumption. It is an important metric for those looking to save money, reduce carbon footprint, or increase server loads without increasing cooling capacity. The use of containment in your data center design has massive impact on your PUE. Even a small computer room with a single rack can benefit from preventing hot and cold air mixing. This results in huge potential savings on energy costs. Try our PUE calcualtor to find out how much you can save.

Overcool or Overheat?

In the vast realm of data centers, the struggle between overcooling and overheating is a common dilemma.

Traditional data centers tend to lean towards overcooling, primarily emphasizing uptime. Unfortunately, many of these setups lack effective containment strategies, with limited insights into crucial factors such as air flows, temperatures, and pressures at key points in the heating and cooling cycle.

Consider this: data centers can achieve a 4-5% reduction in energy costs for every 0.5°C (1°F) increase in server inlet temperatures. However, this efficiency gain comes with a trade-off—there’s a narrower margin for error.

On average, data centers operate at a PUE of 1.5, with numerous legacy facilities falling between a PUE of 1.7 and 2.5. These older data centers hold the potential to save anywhere from 10-20% of annual energy use. The key lies in implementing the right environment and infrastructure monitoring solutions, precisely tuning optimal conditions for cooling and airflow management.

Established in the USA in 1981, AKCP pioneered the market for temperature, environmental, and power monitoring in data centers. With a 200,000 installations worldwide, AKCP is the world’s oldest and largest manufacturer of networked wired and wireless sensor solutions.
