A Northeast Ohio grower is employing CAS Dataloggers to track cold spots throughout their greenhouse.
The grower had reported misread temperatures and a slow to react climate control system. To counter this the grower installed the CAS Dataloggers system to track the trouble zones and send alerts to his email if the temperature dipped. Whenever the system's reading exceeds one of the set upper or lower alarm limits, the Wireless Base Station judges whether or not a warning has occurred. If so, it automatically sends an e-mail report to the owner and designated staff so they can take immediate measures to turn on the climate system or add heaters where needed.
