AKCP Monitors French National Weather Service

PARIS - July 22, 2021 - PRLog -- Meteo France has a network of 40 radar stations covering the country and several overseas territories. A monitoring solution was required for each of these remote meteorological radar stations. The system should be capable of monitoring temperature, humidity, and power status. In addition, a method of controlling the backup diesel generators, and taking in alarms from other systems was required.

The AKCP network-enabled, remote monitoring solution was selected. Deploying sensorProbe8-X20 (SP8-X20) base units at each of the 40 radar sites. Dual temperature and humidity sensors were used for environmental monitoring. AC Voltage sensors detect the presence or absence of AC Voltage. A DC sensor-controlled relay was connected to the diesel generator for remote start/stop. The SP8-X20 has 20x dry contact inputs which were utilized to monitor the fire alarm, intrusion alarms, and the position of the circuit breakers.

The data collected at each site is communicated over the wide-area network (WAN) through SNMP Traps to a server hosted by Meteo France. This allows the infrastructure team to monitor and react to on-site conditions. They are also starting a trial of AKCPro Server centralized monitoring software. This gives supervision of all sites from a single user interface with customizable desktops, reports, and alarms.
