"We're honored to win this award and grateful to AIMNET and YogaSol for integrating Monnit Indoor Climate Monitoring Solutions into their services and facilities," said Monnit Founder and CEO Brad Walters. "We love to witness and highlight the transformative value that our customers earn by adding our IoT solutions into their business-critical operations. Thank you for this recognition."
"It is my pleasure to recognize Monnit with an IoT Excellence Award for its excellence in innovation," said Carl Ford, Community Developer, IoT Evolution World. "As a leader in this rapidly evolving industry, I look forward to seeing Monnit's future successes."
Monitor Indoor Environmental Conditions with Versatile Monnit Sensors
There are many things to monitor when controlling and optimizing indoor climate or environmental conditions. In addition to the essential ambient temperature and humidity measurements, you can monitor nearly everything in an HVAC system.
Monnit manufactures hundreds of ALTA® Wireless, Next™ Wi-Fi, and Power over Ethernet (PoE) Sensors to help facility managers and HVAC technicians make their buildings and systems smarter. Monnit Sensors give you the data to optimize indoor climate conditions, from air velocity to differential air pressure to vibration.
A Core Group of Indoor Climate Monitors
For example, here is a list and description of crucial Monnit Sensors to build an IoT network that manages indoor climate conditions.
Remotely monitor air or water temperatures between -40°F (-40°C) to 257°F (125°C) in virtually any environment, facility, process, or machine. From commercial real estate to agriculture to manufacturing, the ALTA Temperature Sensor's versatility covers your specific needs and remote monitoring use case.
Remotely monitor duct temperature while maintaining a sealed environment. These sensors use an NTC-type thermistor with a UL-listed plenum cable to span from -40°C to 150°C (-40°F to 302°F) for HVAC testing, environmental monitoring, and more. They can be used separately or as an essential part of our HVAC system monitoring solution.
The scientific-grade sensor remotely monitors relative humidity (RH) with a +/- 3% accuracy (between 10–90% RH), temperature, and dew point in facilities. You get instant alerts on your mobile device via text, email, or call if a threshold is breached.
The sensor measures the pressure difference between input ports, ambient temperature, and altitude to determine airflow speed and building or room pressure from an HVAC system. If air velocity deviates from a preset threshold, get an instant alert.
Detect particulate matter PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 concentrations in your facilities. Ensure the safety of your occupants by monitoring air quality. If coarse, fine, or ultrafine particles are detected in the air, the sensor will prompt an instant text, email, or voice call.
It prevents tampering because there are no buttons. By setting it remotely, it'll use its motion sensor to detect occupancy and adjust accordingly. When unoccupied, the thermostat enters a configurable energy-saving mode. It controls conventional, heat pump, and dual fuel HVAC systems with up to three heating and two cooling stages.
Analyze HVAC system power consumption and predict problems before they occur. Knowing minimum, maximum, and average current use by root mean square (RMS) and amp hours helps you manage energy-saving performance and power supply issues.
Connect this accelerometer to HVAC fan motors to monitor vibration, speed, duration, and frequency on all three axes. Vibration beyond a manufacturer's threshold can signify component and machine failure, needed maintenance, or wear and tear.
Remotely monitors filtration, HVAC performance, and components by measuring the air pressure difference between this sensor's dual ports. It will immediately alert you if there is a pressure differential from preset parameters in iMonnit.
Streamline monitoring with our three-in-one sensor. Immediately determine if someone has entered a restricted area using passive infrared technology. Monitor movement and occupancy, ambient temperature, and relative humidity.
Extend Climate Data Communications with ALTA XL IoT and Ethernet Gateways
You need flexible and agile connectivity to take full advantage of the promise of the IoT—collect critical data from nearly anything, anytime, anywhere. To accelerate the advancement of IoT data communications from its ALTA Wireless Sensors, Monnit offers the ALTA XL Wireless IoT and Ethernet Gateways. The gateways feature a powerful wireless transceiver with up to 1-watt transmission strength and an amplified receiver.
They represent the extended long-range wireless evolution of Monnit's proprietary ALTA Radio platform. This IoT technology allows the new gateways to securely send and receive data communications with ALTA Sensors 2,000+ feet through 18+ walls in commercial, rugged, and remote environments. This flexible connectivity highlights the gateway's versatility and ability to create IoT networks in a wide variety of commercial, industrial, and remote environments.
Yoga Studio Automated Climate Condition Controls Stay Flexible
In a unique case study, David Dickson, Project Engineer of AIMNET Smart Building Systems, shares his masterful work integrating some of the many Monnit Sensing Solutions with YogaSol Hot Yoga and Hot HIIT Pilates Studio operations.
Dickson used key Monnit Indoor Climate Monitoring Solutions in a system that automates the control and optimization of YogaSol's studio environmental conditions.
Jeanne Tang, YogaSol Managing Partner, says automation allows her and her instructors to manage the studio when they're not there. According to class schedules, heat, humidity, and ventilation systems are programmed to come on and off. But if there is a change in a schedule, they still control and monitor the systems remotely.
"It is a quixotic notion to operate a hot yoga studio in Connecticut where the weather doesn't cooperate for much of the year," said Tang. "And oh, by the way, the studio has to be energy efficient and generate revenue. We could not run the studio and have any semblance of family life without it."
Read the complete case study to learn more about how Tang and her instructors remotely monitor and manage studio temperature and humidity using innovative and cost-effective solutions connected to the Internet of Things (IoT).
Sneak Peak:
The return on investment (ROI) is significant. Using Monnit Remote Monitoring Solutions, AIMNET Smart Building Systems provided YogaSol with an automated system to control and optimize studio temperatures and humidity 24/7. It's all easily managed using iMonnit—an online dashboard—and Google Calendar on a mobile device or computer. Plus, alerts via email, text, or call from various fast-install, easily configurable IoT sensors.
The origin story of the Internet of Things (IoT) begins with Monnit. Before our inception in 2010, we were already at the forefront of embedding technology into machines and devices to make them talk, delivering valuable data to business leaders. Monnit Remote Monitoring Solutions for nearly any industry use case have delivered 63B+ data points in 85+ countries for 72K+ customers.
Monnit's 80+ wireless IoT sensors remotely monitor many conditions like temperature, light, humidity, water, vibration, pressure, and more. You can analyze data using iMonnit cloud software and get alerts via email, text, or call when our sensors detect a change you need to know.
