Dec. 1, 2020 - "If you care about monitoring, wouldn't you like to know that your sensor is always calibrated?" said Brad Klein, Founder of AKCP.
The wired NIST2 and NIST4 sensors are compatible with the SPX+ series of base units. Up to 16 temperature sensors on a single SPX+. Multiple SPX+ base units are monitored through AKCPro Server DCIM and BMS.
Both the NIST2 and NIST4 sensors have internal calibration integrity checking. With this technology, the sensors operate in pairs, with the values compared once a second. If a difference greater than the stated tolerance of the sensor is detected, an alarm is raised to warn that the sensor is out of calibration. For a higher level of accuracy, an average of the sensor pairs is calculated.
NIST4 sensors additionally include a failover function. 4x NIST traceable, calibrated sensors operate in 6 pairs. The average of each pair is calculated, then an average is taken of the 6 pairs. This results in a higher level of accuracy but also multiple failovers. When a pair is detected as being out of calibration, their values are ignored and an alarm raised indicating that a pair is out of calibration. In the event of a failure, you have a continuous operation, graphing and monitoring of the environmental conditions.
All sensor data collected on the SPX+ is monitored via a network connection. An optional cellular data modem for remote locations and SMS alerts can be added. AKCP also offers a cloud monitoring service, or their central management platform, AKCPro Server.
