5 reasons why to choose PRTG as your data center humidity monitoring tool
Customizable & easy to use
Paessler PRTG is intuitive to use and customize. Not only can you set your own humidity thresholds, but you can also customize the intervals at which data is recorded.
In fact, you can even choose your notification methods like push notification, SMS, email, and more, designate who receives alerts, and limit alerts to specific time periods (for example, only during business hours).
Reliable and comprehensive
Our comprehensive monitoring system keeps an eye on all the environmental values in your data center, including temperature, energy consumption, or water leaks.
If a threshold value is exceeded, PRTG immediately sends you an alert. This allows you to immediately take action in the event of potentially dangerous changes in the conditions of the computer room or the entire data center building.
Optimizes resource usage
PRTG is much more than just a troubleshooting tool. Its monitoring data provides you with valuable insight into ways to optimize your data center’s environmental conditions.
Use hardware humidity sensors and temperature sensors, for example, at strategic points in your facilities to collect data, and integrate it into your monitoring. This way, you can keep an optimal room temperature and humidity level for your hardware, and even reduce energy consumption.
Monitors your entire network
PRTG is an all-in-one network monitoring tool that goes beyond humidity levels to monitor your local and remote networks, as well as your entire IT infrastructure. It constantly checks hardware, applications, services, data traffic, availability, performance, databases, and much more.
This means you have a complete overview of your network and the physical security of your data center facilities, all in a single pane of glass. No need to switch between multiple tools.
Offers multiple features
PRTG can be the single solution you’ve been looking for, as each subscription also includes:
- Customizable reports, on demand or scheduled
- Custom maps and dashboards for viewing monitoring data
- Multiple notification options, including escalation levels
- Simplified configuration with automatic network discovery
- Preconfigured sensors to display monitoring data
What data center humidity monitoring looks like in PRTG
Diagnose network issues by continuously tracking data center cooling systems and the humidity in server rooms and enclosures. Show uptime, humidity levels, temperature ranges, and other key metrics in real time. Visualize monitoring data in clear graphs and dashboards to identify problems more easily. Gain the overview you need to troubleshoot problems due to moisture or too dry air.
Start monitoring humidity in your data center environment with PRTG and see how it can make your network more reliable and your job easier.
Monitor humidity in industrial settings with preconfigured PRTG sensors
Industrial production managers also need to keep a constant eye on the temperature and humidity in their facilities. PRTG also monitors environmental conditions in industrial environments, and comes with a variety of preconfigured sensors for IT, OT, IoT, and IIoT systems.
Modbus RTU systems
The Modbus RTU Custom sensor is perfect for monitoring remote terminal units (RTUs). Among other things, this sensor conveniently monitors temperature and humidity, as well as voltage, air conditioning, and other configurable values.
Rittal climate control
PRTG also monitors Rittal climate control solutions for example Rittal Computer Multi Control version 3 (CMC III) processing units, Rittal power distribution units (PDU), or Rittal IoT interfaces. We recommend the preconfigured SNMP Rittal CMC III Hardware Status sensor for this purpose.
IoT-enabled systems
For IoT-enabled devices (such as hardware sensors that measure humidity), PRTG offers the manufacturer-independent HTTP IoT Push Data Advanced sensor. This sensor presents the data from your IoT sensors in a human-readable format.
