Datasheet

IPthermal Node

The IPthermal Node family is a series of temperature, humidity and flow rate monitoring nodes in the Arch Rock PhyNet™ wireless sensor network product line. IPthermal Nodes extend the Arch Rock Energy Optimizer™ solution for commercial building and data center thermal and environmental visibility, analysis, and optimization.

Benefits

  • Real-time thermal and environmental monitoring and alerts
  • Easy deployment in data centers, wiring closets, commercial and residential buildings, with lightweight and cost-effective “no wires” installation.
  • Non-disruptive – ideal for retrofits in mission critical facilities such as data centers
  • Adaptable to various configurations for thermal and flow rate monitoring
  • Rapidly re-deployable for alternate configurations during building recommissioning and certification programs
  • Low-cost operation – Over-the-Air software upgrade

IPthermal XT

The IPthermal XT node provides multi-point measurements of the ambient air temperature. IPthermal XT provides up to seven temperature measurements using one integrated temperature sensor and up to six external thermal sensors, and one integrated humidity sensor measurement. It may be battery operated or powered by an optional AC wall adapter. IPthermal XT is ideal for multi-point thermal mapping in data centers, where it may be deployed one per rack to measure input and output air temperatures at various heights from the raised floor.

IPthermal HT

The IPthermal HT node provides multi-point measurements of the ambient air temperature and humidity. IPthermal HT provides up to four temperature and humidity measurement points using one integrated dual (temperature and humidity) sensor and up to three external dual (temperature and humidity) sensor probes. It may be battery operated or powered by an optional AC wall adpter.

IPthermal CH

The IPthermal CH node provides for non-intrusive monitoring of the chiller water supply of air conditioning units in commercial buildings and data centers. The node supports up to two chiller pipe surface temperature probes and one ultrasonic flow meter input.
