Discover how Advantech Empowers Data Center Energy Efficiency and Uptime with Smart Wireless Monitoring

Empowering Data Center Energy Efficiency and Uptime with Smart Wireless Monitoring

Introduction

Power and energy management is a critical pillar in data center infrastructure. It includes components such as UPS systems, VFDs, PDU units, circuit breakers, and backup power systems. Ensuring real-time visibility into these assets is essential for maintaining uptime, optimizing energy usage, and reducing operational risk.

Common Challenges in Power Infrastructure Monitoring

  • Limited visibility into distributed UPS and VFD assets
  • Manual or delayed fault detection leading to downtime risks
  • Complex wiring and high installation costs in retrofit scenarios
  • Difficulty integrating RS-485 and wireless data into a unified platform
  • Lack of predictive maintenance insights and real-time alerts


Application Concept

  • WISE-6610V2: LoRaWAN gateway that serves as the central hub for wireless sensor data transmission
  •  WISE-4610P + WISE-S617-A: LoRaWAN I/O module collecting analog/digital data such as temperature, voltage, and status signals from equipment 
  • EVA-P: RS-485 power meter for real-time measurement of voltage, current, and power quality
  • EKI-1224: Protocol gateway that converts serial data from EVA-P and to central systems

System Architecture Overview

This solution integrates LoRaWAN-based sensing and Modbus communication for complete visibility into power infrastructure. WISE-4610 collects real-time I/O signals from UPS and VFDs and transmits them wirelessly to WISE-6610V2. EVA-P power meters provide detailed energy data via RS-485, which is converted by EKI-1224   for integration into the central management system. Together, this setup enables centralized monitoring, rapid alerting, and predictive maintenance—without complex wiring.
