Sensaphone remote monitoring systems can be connected to a variety of sensors and accessories to keep tabs on basic environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity and water detection, security and power failures. All of these sensors require one of four output types to work with Sensaphone devices: 2.8k, 10k, dry contact (digital), or 4-20mA (analog). In addition to monitoring those sensor outputs, some Sensaphone devices can monitor pulse counts and runtimes — useful capabilities for water/wastewater and HVAC applications. 

Leaking water can quickly ruin your business facility and its contents, and the cost to repair all of that damage rises rapidly if you don’t address the problem immediately. You have to act fast to find the source, stop the flow and address the water-logged mess before it grows and gets worse. 

When growing cannabis, it’s important to maintain the best growing conditions to keep your plants alive and healthy. However, it’s not an easy task with the different factors that impact plant growth. A cannabis remote monitoring system provides the capability to track critical parameters within a facility to improve growing environments for optimum yield.

If you own or work at a pet daycare or boarding facility, you know how important it is to keep cat and dog guests safe and comfortable. If the power fails or a ventilation system stops working when staff is off-site, the results could be disastrous for the animals and your business. See our other blog on how this can also be disastrous for zoo animals. Luckily, there’s a fast, easy way to maintain a temperature- and humidity-controlled environment. 

HVAC equipment represents a large portion of a building or manufacturing plant’s energy usage and operating expenses. HVAC monitoring systems can help minimize these costs by continuously tracking environmental conditions. They also monitor the performance of heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment.

Server rooms and data centers are full of expensive equipment. Keeping an eye on equipment status is critical to preventing downtime and saving a significant amount of money on repairs.

Vineyard managers, viticulturists and winemakers know it’s difficult to maintain conditions that support healthy growth and quality harvest of grapes. To ensure the well-being of grapevines, it’s necessary to keep a close watch on environmental factors like temperature, humidity and soil moisture. Without this diligence, the operation stands to lose not only the money invested in the plants, but also the profit from anticipated wine sales.

If you work at a zoo, wildlife preserve, or animal research center, you know how important continuous monitoring of environmental conditions is to ensuring animal safety. This is equally important for pet care facilities, as you can read about in a separate blog post. It isn’t easy to maintain an ideal living environment for animals from all over the world. Living areas need to be kept to exact standards to ensure that animals remain safe and comfortable.
