Industrial Site Temperature and Humidity Environmental Monitoring Systems
Most industrial manufacturing sites have harsh environments due to the nature of their manufacturing and process control operations. This means that they have to closely monitor their working environments for a range of environmental factors that can impact production and also the health & safety of workers on site. Our monitoring solutions can be installed to monitor a range of issues from temperature and humidity, to water leakage, smoke and fire, air quality and security including access control and motion detection.
Industrial Process Control Manufacturing Site Installations
On industrial sites environmental monitoring is generally based on cabled Ethernet solutions. Due to the complex nature of the buildings and industrial processes, wireless sensors are not always advisable due to the electrical noise and radio interference that can be experienced on site. Wireless IoT sensors are easy to deploy than a fully cabled system but care has to be taken when assessing the project.
Standard industrial RS-485 is generally the preferred solution to prevent sensor network issues. When designing an environmental monitoring system for an industrial site it is important to consider:
- Sensor and signal transmission reliability
- Sensor specifications including the temperature range required
- The construction and variability of the building and sensor locations
Industrial Site Monitoring Product Example
The Poseidon2 4002 is a base monitoring unit that can connect to up to 26 sensors with a total bus length of 1200m. The device is designed for sensor scalability, quick and easy fault detection and reliable data transmission in critical environments. Monitoring alerts can be received via email or SMS or SNMP using either an on-premises software or Cloud-based monitoring package.
