Application Details: 
Per USP797 and UPS800, compounding pharmacies are required to keep records of the environmental conditions of the compounding space as well as the temperature within appliances where product is stored. Many compounding pharmacies record this data manually but this can be both time consuming and lead to potential errors. 

In data centers, effective thermal management is critical to maintaining optimal operations, and two primary containment strategies are commonly used: hot aisle containment (HAC) and cold aisle containment (CAC). Both strategies aim to improve cooling efficiency by separating the hot and cold air streams, but they do so in different ways.

Enhancing Data Center Reliability with Setra's Industrial Pressure Sensors

Data centers are the backbone of the digital world, housing critical computer servers that require precise environmental control to function optimally. Worldwide there are well over 10,000 data centers, ranging from expansive hyperscale campuses, small to mid-sized enterprise facilities & colos, and prefabricated modular units, and that number is growing rapidly. As data center design engineers, owners, operators, construction firms, and BAS integrators, maintaining the integrity and performance of these environments is vital. 

Setra’s differential pressure sensors are renowned for their superior quality and reliability, making them ideal for data center HVAC applications. Utilizing advanced capacitive sensing technology, Setra offers both single-range and multi-range (field-selectable) pressure sensors. The core of Setra's sensors is the in-house designed and manufactured stainless steel capacitive sensing element. This ensures full control over production and quality, resulting in sensors with exceptional accuracy and long-term stability.

Setra's NEW Mobile App includes CEMS™ Software 6.0 and is available to download for free in the Apple Store and Google Play Store for Android.

ASHRAE recommends data center temperatures in the range of 64.4 to 80.6 F and humidity at 60 percent. Therefore, controlling temperature and humidity in data centers is vital for protecting equipment and ensuring efficiency. This blog introduces Setra Systems' SRH series sensors, which provide precise environmental monitoring to boost reliability, lower energy costs, and promote sustainability.

Optimizing Energy Management in Data Centers with Setra’s Power Meters

As energy costs continue to climb, energy management has become a critical focus for data centers. These facilities, whether large or small, consume significant amounts of energy, making it imperative to monitor and optimize energy usage. Effective energy management hinges on the availability of detailed energy consumption data, and power meters are essential tools for gathering this feedback.

Setra's MR Series features a lineup of cutting-edge pressure transducers designed for HVAC applications. From the adaptable MR1 and MR2 to the high-performance MRG and versatile MRC, each product in this series combines multi-range capabilities with top-tier performance. In this article, we'll delve into the features and advantages of these sensors, showcasing why they're the go-to choice for contractors looking for reliability, flexibility, and precision in their HVAC applications.

MR1 (Low Range)

The Setra MR1 is the ideal product for any contractor, combining the flexibility of a multi-range with the performance of a single range sensor. The MR1 has 8 selectable ranges (0.1, 0.25, 0.5, and 1.0” W.C.) and 3 selectable outputs, easily adjustable on the job with a flip of a switch or jumper. The MR1 uses an IP67/NEMA 4-rated housing and has a conduit fitting for easy wiring, making the MR1 an ideal solution for any general HVAC application.

MR2 (High Range)

The Setra MR2 stands out as the perfect choice for contractors, merging the versatility of a multi-range sensor with the efficiency of a single range sensor. With 8 selectable ranges (1.0, 2.5, 5.0, and 10” W.C.) and 3 selectable outputs, it's effortlessly adaptable on-site with a simple switch or jumper adjustment. Encased in an IP67/NEMA 4-rated housing and featuring a conduit fitting for straightforward wiring, the MR2 is an excellent fit for various general HVAC applications.
