RackSens™ Scanning · AirCertify™ Reports

Certified data center air quality testing.

Wide-spectrum, high-density scanning, rack by rack

The RackSens™ scanner performs wide-spectrum, high-density environmental scanning of your racks, from intake to exhaust. Our partner companies worldwide carry out the scan, the encrypted data is analysed in our laboratory in Switzerland, and you receive a certified AirCertify™ report showing hidden thermal hotspots, humidity-driven corrosion risks and off-gassing hardware before they cause failures.

One RackSens™ scan. Every rack. Zero blind spots. Inlet temperature, humidity and exhaust outgassing diagnostics. Certified as an AirCertify™ report in Switzerland.

The Data Hall Blind Spot

Why fixed sensors miss critical hardware risks

Wall sensors and sparse rack probes leave gaps between server cabinets. RackSens™ closes them with high-density scanning of every rack in the row.

Traditional Monitoring

  • ×Averaged room data: wall sensors average away local thermal microclimates.
  • ×Hidden corrosion: local humidity spikes above the 57% salt deliquescence point go unnoticed.
  • ×Reactive alerts: alarms fire only after a hardware fault has caused downtime.
  • ×Time intensive: handheld point-by-point readings consume engineering hours.

RackSens™ Row Scanning

  • ✓High-density row profile: every rack scanned across a wide sensor spectrum in a single sweep.
  • ✓Corrosion safeguards: flags humidity hotspots before conductive bridging occurs on boards.
  • ✓Exhaust outgassing detection: spots component off-gassing long before thermal runaway.
  • ✓Certified result: a complete rack row scanned in minutes, documented in an AirCertify™ report.

What We Measure

One RackSens™ scan.
Three air quality tests.

Run individual tests to target a specific risk, or all three together for full row transparency.

01 · Temperature

Thermal Profiling

Ambient and surface temperature at every rack inlet along the row. Uncovers microclimate hotspots that room sensors miss, proves compliance with the ASHRAE 18–27 °C envelope, and gives you the data to raise cooling setpoints safely and cut energy costs.

Where it measuresRack inlet · ambient + surface temperature

02 · Humidity

Humidity & Corrosion Risk

Ambient and surface relative humidity across every cabinet. Flags local spikes against the ASHRAE ≤60% RH limit and the 57% threshold where chloride dust absorbs moisture, turns conductive and drives rapid copper and silver corrosion.

Where it measuresRack inlet · ambient + surface RH

03 · Exhaust Gases

Exhaust Outgassing Detection

An electronic-nose gas sensor combined with exhaust temperature sensing. Picks up trace off-gassing from overheating board laminates, wire insulation or failing capacitors long before smoke alarms trigger or hardware drops off the network.

Where it measuresRack exhaust · e-nose + surface temperature

How Certification Works

Our partners scan. We certify the result.

Just like CleanCertify™ for surface cleanliness, we work with partner companies worldwide who scan your racks with RackSens™. The results are certified by our laboratory as AirCertify™ reports. Facility service providers can join the program at aircertify.com.

01

RackSens™ scan performed

A partner sweeps the RackSens™ scanner along your rack rows at inlet and exhaust height — no cabling, no rack access, no risk to live equipment.

02

Encrypted data analysed in Switzerland

The scan data is encrypted and transferred to our laboratory in Switzerland, where it is analysed rack by rack.

03

AirCertify™ report issued

You receive a certified AirCertify™ report with a rack-by-rack profile, benchmarked against ASHRAE, ISO 14644-1 and ANSI/ISA-71.04.

Why Technology Care

Independent diagnostics, backed by Swiss expertise.

We sell no server hardware and no maintenance contracts, so our findings stay neutral. Our AirCertify™ reports give operations teams verified data for warranty reviews, SLA disputes and energy optimization.

01

Complete aisle coverage

High-density RackSens™ scanning replaces guesswork and sparse point sensors.

02

Early fault detection

Exhaust outgassing detection isolates degrading power components days or weeks before failure.

03

Defensible documentation

Every scan is analysed in our independent laboratory in Switzerland and certified as an AirCertify™ report, giving you audit-ready evidence.
