Vertiv WSN-FLEX Wireless Temperature Humidity Sensor

Overview

The Vertiv WSN-FLEX is a wireless sensor designed for real-time monitoring of temperature and humidity. It provides critical environmental data for IT infrastructure, ensuring optimal operating conditions and preventing equipment failure due to thermal or moisture stress. This sensor is ideal for deployment in server racks, network closets, and other sensitive IT spaces where precise climate control is paramount. The WSN-FLEX model integrates seamlessly into existing monitoring systems, offering a flexible solution for environmental management.

Compatibility

The WSN-FLEX sensor is designed to integrate with Vertiv's environmental monitoring solutions, including specific Vertiv rack power distribution units (PDUs) and dedicated monitoring gateways. It is engineered to work within the Vertiv IT management ecosystem, providing consolidated data streams for comprehensive infrastructure oversight. Consult Vertiv documentation for exact gateway and PDU series compatibility, as direct integration requires specific hardware support.

Installation Notes

Installation involves pairing the sensor with a compatible Vertiv monitoring gateway or PDU. Ensure the sensor is placed within the effective wireless range of the gateway, typically up to 100 feet (30 meters) in open environments, though building materials can reduce this. The sensor is battery-powered, requiring periodic battery replacement as indicated by the monitoring system. Avoid placing the sensor in areas with high electromagnetic interference that could disrupt wireless communication.
