Data Center Operators

The AUDIT-BUDDY is your key to troubleshooting heat or cooling issues on demand. This multi-height monitor that provides data to help manage your airflow, reduce Scope II emissions, increase energy efficiency & cooling optimization.

Built For Busy Data Centers

When you get an unexpected BMS alert about a high temperature in your hall, or some equipment fails, you need to be able to quickly pinpoint and diagnose the root cause.

The AUDIT-BUDDY™ system provides targeted information to locate and diagnose issues before they become a major operational risk.

How it Works

  • Step 1: Baseline

    Use the custom QuickScan mode to take 1 minute scans across the aisle to pinpoint the problem area.

  • Step 2: Collect Trend-Time Data

    Use the custom LongScan mode to track environment at user-defined collection rate and time period.

  • Step 3: Calculate Aisle Air Efficiency

    Use two AUDIT-BUDDY stands to collect the server delta-T. The software will calculate the air efficiency at the cabinet-level.

Case Study: Responding to a Hot Spot

During the COVID-19 pandemic, a major retailer experienced a significant surge in online sales, resulting in increased demand on their server infrastructure. As a consequence, their legacy facility began encountering multiple hot spots, posing a risk to server uptime and overall performance. With limited on-site staffing and operational changes due to the pandemic, the client sought a solution that could address the issue swiftly and independently, without relying on third-party vendor assistance. Leveraging their AUDIT-BUDDY™ systems, they were able to diagnose and resolve the hot spots within a remarkable timeframe of less than 24 hours.
