interSeptor Temperature Sensors and Environmental Monitoring System

interSeptor is a Techworld recommended environmental monitoring device designed for remotely monitoring temperature and humidity conditions, and acting as a sensor for detecting security breaches, smoke, water leaks and power loss in datacenters, IT and comms rooms.

Designed to work ‘out-of-the-box’ , interSeptor is supplied with standard temperature sensors and humidity sensors, together with a range of further optional sensors such as additional temperature and temperature / humidity modules, security sensors, water leak detectors, voltage sensors and smoke sensors.

interSeptor is a versatile 10/100Mbps ethernet environmental monitoring device. The total capacity allows for monitoring 2 x temperature sensors, 2 x humidity sensors and 4 x additional sensors (water, security, power, smoke or dry contact.)

interSeptor provides an exceptional range of features, and its scaleable design ensures you can achieve an extremely cost-effective solution to your data centre monitoring requirements.

INTERSEPTOR FEATURES

Features of the interSeptor include:

• Temperature sensor/humidity sensor and 2 x optional sensor ports as standard
• Monitoring via web browser interface or network management system
• User configurable high/low warning and critical temperature and humidity thresholds
• Optional Go-Probe Sensors (water, smoke, security, power) can be quickly connected
• Email alarm notification, daily status reporting
• Optional SMS text and voice alarm notification via Jacarta. Free first year subscription now available with all new UK purchases of interSeptor
• Extensive on-board logging/graphing capability
• Comprehensive browser interface
• SNMP compliant for network management system integration
• Serial, telnet, browser configuration options
• BootP, DHCP
• Alarm scheduling facility so that alerts can be enabled/disabled as required
• 2 year warranty

interSeptor is supplied with a humidity / temperature sensor as standard. 2 x optional sensors can be connected to the humidity / temperature sensor and monitored via the interSeptor. interSeptor also has the capacity to monitor an additional temperature or humidity / temperature sensor. An additonal two optional sensors can also be connected to either of these sensors.

SENSORS

interSeptor optional sensors are available as follows:

Temperature with 2m or 18m interface cable
Temperature/humidity with 2m or 18m interface cable
Optional extra sensors :
Water Leak Smoke Security Power Universal

Temperature Sensors & Humidity Sensors

High and low warning and critical temperature and humidity thresholds can be configured in the interSeptor to ensure alarms are raised when room or rack conditions are abnormal. The hysteresis configuration facility ensures that alarms are not continually triggered when levels are ‘floating’ around the configured thresholds.

Water Leak

The interSeptor water leak sensor is supplied with 3m or 18m of leak detection ‘tape’. The tape can be run under air conditioning units, in ceiling voids, under raised floors, under pipes, and around room perimeters to provide a comprehensive, easy-to-install, leak detection facility.

Smoke

The unique sensor connectivity design of the interSeptor facilitates installation and monitoring of the smoke detector, especially on ceilings. The cable connection need only be run from the temperature/humidity sensor which will typically already be installed at an elevated level.

Security

The security sensor option is a magnetic reed contact sensor, ideal for monitoring rack or room door access.

Power

The power sensor will detect the presence or otherwise of utility power.

Universal

The Universal sensor is an interface cable that can be connected to any device offering an open or closed or high/low output. interSeptor can monitor this output for changes in state and alarm accordingly. The Universal sensor can be connected to equipment such as generators, air conditioning units, printers, UPS, security systems, fire alarm systems, etc.

SOFTWARE

Browser

interSeptor can be monitored and managed ‘out-of-the-box’ via its comprehensive browser interface.

Key features include:

• Visual ‘comprehensive’ interface for quick identification of temperature/humidity or sensor alarms
• Straightforward labelling of sensors to identify location and type of sensor
• Quick configuration of alarm thresholds, email recipients, trap receivers, system information
• Viewing of extensive event and detail files, all of which can be exported in .csv format into excel, etc.

Java

A java window can be launched via the interSeptor browser interface to display real-time meters or graphs for each sensor being monitored, as well as for historial and extended historical data recorded by the interSeptor.

Network Management

interseptor can be integrated into network management systems supporting SNMP, such as WhatsUp Gold and HP Openview.
