SALT LAKE CITY—October 11, 2024—Monnit announced today that the Monnit Smart City Environmental Monitoring Solution has received a 2024 Smart City Product of the Year Award from The Smart City Sentinel and IoT Evolution World, the leading websites covering IoT technologies.

The award honors the best and most innovative products and solutions powering Smart City initiatives and deployments and helping create better cities and communities with IoT technologies.

"This is a new and important recognition for us because our wireless environmental sensors that monitor climate conditions, power, water, and HVAC system performance in facilities are essential in smart city applications," said Monnit Founder and CEO Brad Walters. "Internet of Things (IoT) networks of wireless sensors connect people to real-time actionable data so everyone from city to business to facility managers can make data-driven decisions to make their cities more efficient, sustainable, and profitable."

"The solutions selected for the Smart City Product of the Year Award reflect the diverse range of innovation driving the multi-billion dollar IoT market today," said Rich Tehrani, CEO of TMC, a co-publisher of The Smart City Sentinel Smart City. "It is my honor to congratulate Monnit for their innovative work and superior contribution to the rapidly evolving IoT industry."

"It is my pleasure to recognize Monnit Smart City Environmental Monitoring Solution, an innovative solution that earned Monnit the 2024 The Smart City Sentinel Smart City Product of the Year Award," said Carl Ford, Community Developer, The Smart City Sentinel Smart City World. "I look forward to seeing even more innovation from Monnit in the future."

Make City Spaces Comfortable and Safe for People

Many Monnit ALTA^® Wireless IoT Sensors and ALTA XL^® Gateways reporting through iMonnit™ Cloud Monitoring Software provide ideal real-time smart city environmental and energy monitoring. The Monnit Smart City Environmental Monitoring Solution can provide data for any smart city facility and indoor environment.

This data can help leaders easily create smart buildings to identify potential climate conditions and plumbing, power, asset tracking, and HVAC system performance problems before they become serious.

Promote Smart City Uptime

With the Monnit Smart City Environmental Monitoring Solution, you can take a proactive, predictive, and preventive approach to mitigate the threats to productive smart city spaces. Here are some of our industrial and enterprise sensors, gateways, and management software within the smart city solution that make this happen.

An IoT network of ALTA Sensors can help with predictive maintenance, diagnostics, healthy indoor climates, and energy-saving operations. With these IoT devices in place, buildings are upgraded to smart buildings, optimized to provide data about climate conditions, power, and HVAC performance 24/7.

ALTA Standard Temperature Sensor—Track and chart your HVAC system's fluctuating atmosphere throughout your facilities. This versatile sensor with a waterproof lead up to 100 feet can take temperatures of almost anything anywhere. Measure a range from -40°C to 125°C (-40°F to 257°F).

ALTA Humidity Sensor—The scientific-grade sensor remotely monitors relative humidity (RH) with a +/- 3% accuracy (between 10–90% RH), temperature, and dew point in facilities. It's available in wireless and PoE options and will instantly alert you via text, email, or call.

ALTA Water Detection Sensors—The Water Detection Puck, Water Detect Plus, and Water Rope Sensor can help prevent damage from plumbing and cooling system leaks. Our Water Detection Sensors can also help keep employees and customers safe from slips and falls.

ALTA Air Velocity Sensor—To determine airflow speed and building or room pressure from an HVAC system, the sensor measures the pressure difference between input ports, ambient temperature, and altitude. If air velocity deviates from a preset threshold, get an instant alert.

ALTA Air Quality Sensor—Detect particulate matter PM₁, PM_2.5, 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.

ALTA Smart Thermostat—This thermostat prevents tampering because there are no buttons. By setting it remotely, it'll use its motion sensor to detect occupancy and adjust accordingly. This way, you'll conserve energy and enjoy the potential cost savings.

ALTA Duct Temperature Sensor—Keep a sealed environment and easily monitor HVAC performance and ductwork temperatures. The sensor uses a probe to measure a range of -40°C to 150°C (-40°F to 302°F) and features a negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor.

ALTA AC Current Meter—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.

ALTA Three-Phase Current Meter—Clip the meter's current transformers (CTs) to each phase of your three-phase electrical system to track power consumption, power system faults, and balanced failover to backup systems in the event of a heat-related blackout or brownout.

ALTA Vibration Meter—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.

ALTA Differential Air Pressure Sensor—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.

ALTA Motion+ Temperature and Humidity Sensor—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 Data Communications with ALTA XL IoT and Ethernet Gateways

To accelerate the advancement of IoT data communications from its ALTA Wireless Sensors, Monnit offers the ALTA XL Wireless IoT and Ethernet Gateways. They represent the extended long-range wireless evolution of Monnit's proprietary ALTA Radio platform. Securely send and receive data communications with ALTA Sensors 2,000+ feet through 18+ walls. This flexible connectivity highlights the gateway's versatility in creating IoT networks in commercial, industrial, and remote environments.

Easily Manage and Integrate an IoT Energy Management System

We offer multiple versions of iMonnit so you can monitor smart city operations how, when, and where you want. Use the iMonnit Basic or Premiere SaaS Software as an Energy Management System (EMS). For robust environmental monitoring, sensor configuration, data analysis, and network management, we provide iMonnit Premiere, Enterprise, and Express. Any iMonnit version can easily integrate with a Facility Maintenance Management System (FMMS) and Building Management System (BMS).
