The Sentinel™ system from Sensaphone is ideal for manufacturing and research process facilities that require a controlled environment or designated cleanroom to ensure that factors like temperature, airflow, humidity and airborne particulates do not compromise products. The Sentinel system uses cloud technology to provide supervised 24/7 remote monitoring of up to 12 different environmental and equipment status conditions.

Managing controlled environments

When the system detects that a sensor reading has moved out of the preset range, it sends notification via phone call, text or email to designated personnel for fast corrective action.

Users are notified about the disruption through phone, text or email

Used with sensors to monitor important cleanroom conditions such as airflow, differential pressure, vibration, temperature, humidity and power failure, the Sentinel system takes the burden out of managing controlled environments. Operators can access real-time data from anywhere using any mobile device.

Its user-friendly cloud functionality lets users check status information, change settings, disable alarms and readjust temperature limits right from the Sensaphone app.

Users notified about disruption

The Sentinel system constantly communicates a signal to the Sensaphone cloud to validate its online status. If the communication link is interrupted – for example by a power outage or someone accidentally switching off the unit – the system generates an alert indicating that internet connection is lost or that there is a cellular communications problem. Users are notified about the disruption through phone, text or email.

The Sentinel system also has enhanced data logging functionality that allows users to print, graph or export accurate historical records. This advanced data logging capability saves personnel time and effort when reporting on operating conditions or demonstrating regulatory compliance, because the system makes it easy to maintain records and generate time and sensor-specific reports.
