Beyond the vents: Understanding why airflow monitoring is key to operational health
In terms of building performance and equipment longevity, airflow monitoring does not often receive the attention it deserves, yet it plays a major role. Whether you’re in a data center, cleanroom, lab, or commercial building, maintaining excellent airflow is a critical part of not only comfort but also safety, efficiency, and compliance. · The importance of airflow monitoring, more than you know Not only is air invisible — it’s also easy to overlook. Without continuous monitoring, any small variation in airflow can result in overheating, changes in pressure or contamination. Failed hardware and increased energy consumption indicate the lack of a dust-free environment in IT. Airflow incoherences can threaten sterile conditions and regulatory requirements in the healthcare and pharmaceutical industries. By deploying reliable airflow monitoring systems, facilities are enabled to regularly measure the effectiveness of ventilation and promptly detect disparities and discr...
