Visualizing the noise around data centers to enhance environmental consideration and resident engagement.
In data centers, many facilities such as air conditioning systems, cooling units, and emergency generators operate 24 hours a day. The noise generated by these facilities can affect not only the operational environment within the facility but also the surrounding environment. To balance stable facility operations with consideration for the local environment, it is important to continuously monitor and appropriately manage noise levels.
Additionally, changes in noise levels can indicate abnormalities or deterioration in equipment, and utilizing this as part of operational monitoring can help in the early detection of equipment issues and preventive maintenance.
The cloud-based noise monitoring system measures noise levels in real-time using sound level meters installed both inside and outside the data center, managing the data centrally in the cloud. It allows for remote monitoring and historical data review, enabling operators to immediately grasp the overall noise situation of the facility.
Furthermore, it automatically sends alert notifications when set thresholds are exceeded, supporting prompt responses. By analyzing the accumulated data, it also contributes to the optimization of equipment operations and the enhancement of environmental management.
As a monitoring foundation that supports the stable operation of data centers and environmental considerations, it aids in improving the reliability of facility operations.
