Enhancing Reliability with Integrated Calibration Checking and Failover Capabilities

AKCP, the world’s oldest and largest manufacturer of networked wired and wireless sensor solutions, today announced a new option for its compact sensorProbe1+ (SP1+) monitoring device. The SP1+ is now available with a built-in NIST3 temperature sensor, delivering advanced temperature calibration checking and failover functionality directly integrated into the unit.

AKCP has long been a trusted solution for environmental monitoring in data centers, server rooms, and critical infrastructure facilities. This new built-in NIST3 option elevates its capabilities by incorporating three NIST-traceable, calibrated temperature sensing elements within a single housing. This redundant design enables real-time calibration verification by cross-comparing sensor readings, ensuring accuracy and alerting users to any discrepancies that could indicate calibration drift. In the event of an issue with one sensor, the system automatically fails over to the remaining sensors, maintaining continuous monitoring without interruption.

“Our customers in high-stakes environments demand the highest levels of precision and reliability,” said Nick Barrowclough, President of AKCP. “By integrating the NIST3 temperature sensor directly into the SP1+, we’re providing a seamless, out-of-the-box solution that minimizes setup complexity while maximizing data integrity and uptime.”

Key features of the SP1+ with built-in NIST3 temperature sensor includes:

– Triple Redundancy: Three independent NIST-calibrated sensors for failover and cross-verification.

– Calibration Checking: Automated comparison of readings to detect anomalies and ensure compliance with standards.

– Compact Design: Retains the SP1+’s small footprint, with the sensor fully integrated for easy deployment.

– Applications: Ideal for pharmaceuticals, laboratories, food storage, and IT infrastructure where temperature fluctuations can have significant impacts.

The new SP1+ variant is available immediately through AKCP’s global network of distributors and resellers. Pricing and configuration options can be found on the AKCP website or by contacting sa***@**cp.com.
