VT490 Humidity & temperature sensor

Description

VT490 is a high-quality humidity and temperature sensor with a reliable price. By connecting several VT490 in a CAN daisy chain you can measure temperature and humidity parameters in each location of a room or a server rack.

A separate element inside the web interface represents every environmental parameter of VT460. This allows us to set individual thresholds and set up event triggering such as notifications and other actions.

The dew point is easily calculated using the temperature and humidity parameters of VT490 inside the Vutlan web interface.

CAN devices and sensors can be chained together. Up to 10-32 CAN devices can be connected in a chain. You can connect CAN sensors or extensions on a CAN bus line.

Use cases

The VT490 CAN sensor can be widely applied across industries to ensure real-time, precise monitoring and control of environmental factors.

  • Telecommunication Stations: Used at remote communication sites to monitor environmental conditions and prevent equipment malfunction due to heat or moisture.
  • Energy Plants: Monitors temperature and pressure at energy production facilities, contributing to safety and operational efficiency.
  • Cheese Storage Facilities: Monitors humidity and temperature to maintain the precise conditions required for aging cheese, ensuring quality and safety during the storage process.
  • Greenhouses: Tracks temperature and humidity levels to create optimal growing conditions for plants, contributing to better yield and healthier crops.
  • Data Center Monitoring: Tracks critical environmental factors like temperature, humidity, and voltage in data centers to ensure equipment operates within safe conditions, preventing downtime.
  • Industrial Facilities: Monitors environmental conditions in manufacturing plants, ensuring optimal operation and reducing the risk of equipment failure.
  • Building Management Systems (BMS): Integrates into smart building systems for continuous environmental monitoring, providing feedback to HVAC, security, and lighting systems.

Sensor features

Logic schemes

Logic schemes are used to specify automatic actions to events that occur in the system.

Dashboard view

The system allows to customize the dashboard individually for each user and displays the most important information on it in a visual form.
Add widgets with multi graphs, gauge meters or knobs.

Thresholds

Each sensor has Low Alarm, Low Warning, Normal, High Warning, and High alarm threshold states for logic control & sending of notification.

Graphs and Logging

Vutlan supports SD card logging up to 500 Gb. You can log a whole systems loaded with sensors for 3 years.

Connecting CAN sensors

You can connect up to x32 CAN units in a CAN bus chain.

E.g. Each VT408 unit in a CAN bus chain adds 8 analog sensors.

E.g. Each VT440 unit adds x32 or x64 dry contact inputs to the system.

The additional power supply CAN12V-1A  is needed only if the number of sensors in a CAN bus chain is more than 12 sensors. Supplies power for each additional group of 12 sensors.

Systems with CAN ports:

To read data from the CAN sensors, you need a Vutlan monitoring and control system. A monitoring system may have x1 or x2 CAN ports.
