Case Overview
CustomerA large financial conglomerate in Brazil
Application productsMacro Set NOVUS Wireless Environment Monitoring System
Application Scenario:Real time temperature and humidity monitoring and control in data centers
01
Preface
Background
In critical industry environments such as data centers and server rooms,Temperature and humidity control directly determine the safety and sustained stable operation capability of IT equipmentExcessive temperature can cause equipment to overheat and shut down, while high humidity may pose risks such as condensation and corrosion.
The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) recommends in its 9.9 Technical Committee:The inlet temperature of IT equipment in the data center should be maintained between 18 ° C and 27 ° C, and the relative humidity should be maintained between 40% and 60%This interval is considered the ideal standard for achieving safe, efficient, and highly available operation.
02
Manual inspection is difficult to meet the real-time monitoring requirements
Challenges

A large financial group in Brazil has data centers in S ã o Paulo and Paran á. The company has long relied on manual use of thermometers and hygrometers for recording. The staff need to enter the white area multiple times a day to measure and record values, which not only has low efficiency, but also has the following problems:
● Data is not real-time and response lags behind
Manual inspection can only measure at regular intervals, not continuously monitor. Abnormal temperature or humidity often takes several hours (up to 4 hours) to be detected after it occurs, making it difficult to alert in a timely manner and seriously affecting the safety of the computer room.
● Records are prone to errors
Manual measurement inevitably leads to omissions, misreading, and inconsistent records.
●Frequent entry into the white zone brings security and operational risks
Frequent access to restricted areas not only increases operating costs, but also increases personnel health risks.
Therefore, the customer urgently needs a setReal time, accurate, automated, and remotely manageable environmental monitoring solution.

Macro NOVUS Environmental Monitoring Solution
Solutions
In response to customer needs, Hongji NOVUS has deployed a wireless environment monitoring system consisting of three products: RHT Air, AirGate Modbus, and FieldLogger.
RHT Air wireless temperature and humidity sensor
RHT Air is a high-precision wireless temperature and humidity sensor,Responsible for collecting real-time environmental data such as temperature and humidity in the computer roomIt supports battery power supply, can be flexibly deployed, does not require complex wiring, and is the core acquisition device for building wireless environment monitoring systems.

AirGate Modbus Wireless Modbus Gateway
AirGate Modbus is responsible forReceive wireless data from multiple RHT Air units, and output through Modbus RTUTo achieve compatibility with traditional industrial systems. With stable wireless communication capabilities, AirGate Modbus can maintain reliable connections in data center environments with many obstacles.

FieldLogger multi-channel data logger
FieldLogger is a professional level data logger with protocol conversion capabilities. It will receive Modbus RTU data from the AirGate gatewayConvert to Modbus TCP, andProvide data local storage redundancyEnable temperature and humidity data toIntegrated into environmental management systems such as EMSImplement centralized monitoring.

The system deployment is simple and can be launched within a few daysRealize real-time, continuous, and visual monitoring of data center environments.
04
Result: Faster response, lower risk, and higher efficiency
Effects
Just two weeks after the system was launched, customers clearly felt three major changes:
✔ Real time and reliable temperature and humidity data
No need for manual inspection, high-frequency data collection covers 24/7 changes.
✔ Automatic alarm mechanism
Once there is a deviation in temperature and humidity from the standard, the system immediately notifies the technical personnel, and the abnormality is not detected until several hours later.
✔ Significant reduction in labor costs and safety risks
No longer need for manual repeated entry into the white zone, operation and maintenance work is safer and more efficient.
According to ASHRAE Technical Committee 9.9, maintaining temperature and humidity within recommended parameter ranges can also help reduce energy consumption. In addition to the above advantages, customers also gain a deeper understanding of its thermal characteristics and use cold air injection as needed,Significant energy-saving effects have been achieved.
