Benefits of using RxMS's monitoring:

~ Benefits

~ Summary

~ In the Temperature & Humidity waveform below, notice how both the temperature and humidity are erratic and out of spec. It appears that the RxMS Temperature and Humidity probe was placed directly in front of the vent. RxMS recommends in the installation instructions that the probe be placed away from a door, window or ventilation unit. The outcome of the probe being placed in front of the vent was that the room temperature was slightly low and the humidity level needed to be lowered and stabilized.

~ Power quality is critical to understand, but understanding the environment and the issues that go along with it may be even more critical, which is why working with a consulting company is only to your advantage. Does the concept of monitoring ever bring up bad memories? Have you have ever tried monitoring a customer site yourself and only encountered lots of rejection? Simply adding a power protection device may or may not be your sole problem. Prior to RxMS, the only way to monitor a system was to spend thousands of dollars on an on-site consultant or if your boss made you, you had to rent the monitor yourself. No training, nothing – just you and the monitor. Then after you spend days learning how to program the device, set it up and gather useful data, the customer does not believe the outcome because the monitor was last calibrated over 6 months ago. Frustrating? Not with RxMS. RxMS can provide its customers with not only the calibrated test equipment, but also a comprehensive report compiled of the most accurate data as well as a conference call, if needed, to discuss the report and its solutions. Seeing as how our monitors are basically just plug-n-play, any non-technical personnel can install them without any complications. No wasted time – and you get better results!

~ When working with a consulting company such as RxMS, it allows you or your client more time to focus on critical day-to-day operations and allows the consultants to focus on whether or not your customer's needs are met and that the problem is solved. At RxMS, we not only care about gathering lots of data and prescribing the right solutions, but also displaying our findings so that it is easily understood and readable for our customers. We are constantly trying to improve our monitors' software and features, which is part of the reason why we do not sell them, leaving you with yesterday's technology. Whether you need to monitor a trouble site or pre-monitor a site before installation, RxMS is the company for the job. RxMS will help you gather baseline data prior to an installation which will help the client and service prevent any issues, both immediate or future, that could cause downtime and service repair. We will gather data regarding power quality, temperature & humidity, air purity, air pressure and/or dust particles that may be affecting your equipment and have a solution to your problem within 48 to 72 hours after we have received the data. With such a fast turnaround rate, RxMS can save you and your client, not only time, but money as well. Your money is maximized because it will save you grief in the long run as well as saving you warranty and service expenses. Yes, it may be expensive to monitor but not as expensive as selecting the wrong power protection device.
