Real-time Heatmaps
2D heatmaps constantly update with sensor data at rack level. With each rack having 6 temperature sensors (3 at front and rear, top middle and bottom) hotspots, high rack inlet temperatures and incorrect ∆T’s are quickly identified and alerted.
Identify Hotspots before They are a Problem
With AKCPro Server Heatmaps hotspots are identified. Visual and audible alarms can be raised, SNMP traps, E-mail and SMS can be sent. With full SNMP V1/2/3 compatability it easily integrates with existing NMS, BMS and DCIM software.
24/7/365 Thermal Optimization
Be pro-active with thermal management of your data center. Sense disaster and be put in control before critical infrastructure fails. As data center loads change identify areas of cost saving. Utilize sensors as an analysis tool not only for alerts.
Comply with ASHRAE and Uptime Institute
with sensors placed at each rack you can ensure 100% compliance with ASHRAE and Uptime Institutes recommended temperatures and sensor placement. Sensors reduce the risk of thermal shutdowns, which account for 1/3 of data center outages.
Software
Central management and monitoring software for all AKCP devices. DCIM with focus on temperature and airflow analysis. 2D and 3D vizualitation of the data center with heatmaps, sensor constrained CFD and differential air pressures.
Hardware
sensorCFD combines temperature and humidity mapping, non-invasive current metering and pressure sensors. 6x temperature, 1x humidity, 1x current, 2x pressure, 3x ∆T and 1x ∆P for a total of 14 sensors per rack. Data is collected for analysis by AKCPro Server producing sensor constrained CFD models.
