Monitoring of HVAC/R systems
Heating, ventilation and air conditioning/refrigeration (HVAC/R) systems control the thermal comfort inside buildings and maintain adequate air quality through circulation and fresh air supply. Building operators and contractors responsible for these systems strive to ensure that HVAC/R equipment operates efficiently so that an appropriate indoor environment is maintained and operating costs are kept manageable.
To achieve better performance of HVAC/R systems, indoor monitoring provides valuable feedback on system operations, providing insights that open the door to correcting inefficiencies, optimizing equipment, and validating innovations that can contribute to green building certification.
HOBO data loggers enable accurate monitoring of environmental conditions in buildings, helping building professionals to diagnose mechanical problems and pinpoint causes that affect comfort inside the building. This ensures a better balance between a healthy and comfortable indoor environment and energy costs.
Comfort complaints - how data loggers can help you
Productivity at work depends heavily on environmental conditions, among other things, with temperature also playing an important role. The temperature depends on the different seasons, the movement behavior of the workers, whether they mainly sit at their desk or move around the building, as well as the different temperature preferences. In order to create perfect environmental conditions, it becomes a major challenge for the building manager to juggle the various factors when evaluating working comfort.
Better conservation methods using wireless monitoring
The Carnegie Museum of Natural History in Pittsburgh uses an accurate, discrete wireless monitoring system to collect temperature and humidity data throughout its complex building structure to ensure optimal preservation of exhibits and artifacts.
