AKCess Pro Airflow Sensor

A possible lack of air-cooling can jeopardize the availability of heat-sensitive server and IT systems.  The Air Flow Sensor of our partner AKCP Inc serves the around-the-clock monitoring of airstream of ventilation systems and air conditioners.

AKCP intelligent sensors

A possible malfunction or failure of the ventilation / air circulation system is immediately detected by the Air Flow sensor and will be reported by sensorProbe or securityProbe monitoring devices to the appropriate security personnel.

The airflow in the data center and server room should be controlled to avoid heat damage to your IT infrastructure. Especially between the server cabinets you may find hotspots due to lack of air circulation.

Inadequate ventilation in the data center and server room

Protect your mission-critical infrastructure such as server room or data center from overheating or inadequate air circulation as a result of failure of the HVAC / ventilation system.

A reliable cooling of server cabinets is essential. A blade server system or a storage enclosure system is sensitive to heat.

Permanent monitoring of the ventilation system

The AKCP Air flow sensor is placed directly into the airflow of the ventilation system - so you can precisely measure the status and the intensity of the airflow. Since the sensorProbe2, sensorProbe8 and securityProbe 5E monitoring devices will record the measured values of the Airflow over a longer period, you may diagnose clogged ventilation systems in time.

AutoSensing of AKCP AirFlow Sensor The AirFlow sensor from AKCP is automatically identified by sensorProbe and securityProbe monitoringhardware. The Disconnect feature immediately alerts the administrators when the sensor connection would be interrupted.

Installation of IP-enabled sensor airflow / AirFlow

The Cat5 connection cable of AirFlow sensor is inserted into a free sensor terminal of the monitoring system. The airflow / AirFlow sensor is identified automatically! At the free Sensor connections you can attach additional smart sensors for server room monitoring. In our assortment you will find temperature sensors, water sensors, smoke detectors, power monitor sensors, dual temperature / humidity sensors.

Connect the Cat5 cable the air flow sensor to a free sensor port on the sensorProbe or securityProbe Rackmonitoringsystems. Thanks to the Auto Sense technology the sensor airflow from all sensorProbe2, sensorProbe8 and securityProbe IPAlarmServern is automatically detected!

Then enter the web interface of the alarm server the required threshold and warning values of the airflow sensor and define how you want to be alerted in case of failure of the air cooling.

AKCP Air Flow Sensor

 

The AKCP Air Flow Sensor is designed for systems that generate heat in the course of their operation and a steady flow of air is necessary to dissipate this heat generated. System reliability and safety could be jeopardized if this cooling air flow stops.
