Temperature & humidity sensors Eaton

Temperature and humidity module, 2x RJ-45, 0-80°C, 10-90%, Black The Eaton Environmental Rack Monitor (ERM) continuously monitors environmental conditions at the rack level, providing an extra level of security for critical assets. The primary application is for high-density data centers, but this compact, full-featured unit can monitor conditions in laboratories, hospitals, warehouses, libraries, museums and any other indoor location where the environment must be maintained within acceptable levels.

In the typical rack application, the 0U-size rack monitor base unit can be placed horizontally or vertically in any unused space in the rack. This base unit supports up to two combination temperature and humidity sensor units (known as TH-Modules) that can be placed anywhere in the enclosure. Each hot-swappable TH-Module can support up to two additional input contact sensor devices, for a total of eight sensors per rack monitor. The standard package come with one TH-Module. Additional TH-Modules and sensors can be purchased separately. The ERM also supports third party contact sensors.

Install and activate quickly.
The ERM and TH-Modules are mounted in unused side or rear channels within rack enclosures, so they don’t occupy any space needed for IT equipment. The unit has screw holes for wall-mounting and rubber feet for placement on any flat surface. The TH-Module also comes with a screw hole and matching screws. Device activation is simple and can be done remotely over the network or locally using the serial port.

Streamline administration with user-friendly utilities.
The unit comes with utilities to enable remote upgrade of firmware in multiple rack monitors in a single broadcast session, and discovery tools to search other rack monitors on the network. The unit can also be rebooted remotely.

Count on reliable performance.
The ERM has been designed for the rigors of high-density computing environments. For instance, our TH-Module sensors are housed in a rugged protective casing and can be firmly affixed to a rack using its screw-mount hole. Competitive offerings often have flimsy, exposed sensors that hang loose and break easily.
