Purkay Labs Announces New Capabilities For Audit-Buddy
Rapid creation of data center aisle thermal contour maps now available using AUDIT-BUDDY™ & Excel Macro.
Purkay Labs has announced new capabilities for AUDIT-BUDDY™, a cost effective, portable tool that measures temperature and humidity without touching the server. With Purkay Labs’ Contour Map Excel Macro, users can now use AUDIT-BUDDY’s QuickScan mode, which takes 20 second scans at three different heights of the server rack, to generate real-time temperature, humidity or dew-point contour maps.
AUDIT-BUDDY captures both real-time and long term scans of the data center environment. This Macro lets users download QuickScan data directly into Excel and generate the contour map of an entire aisle. Users can baseline the whole facility, generating thermal maps of each aisle. Potential areas of concern detected may be assessed using AUDIT-BUDDY's LongScan mode and Purkay Labs’ Server Delta-T measurement technology, to diagnose and correct the root cause of the problem, which is usually airflow related.
