Industrial IoT for Data Centres
LoRaWAN sensors, gateways and dashboards for Data centres — specified, stocked and supported by UK engineers.
Industrial IoT for Data Centres replaces manual rounds, spreadsheets and blind spots with live LoRaWAN telemetry: low-power sensors, resilient gateways and dashboards that flag a problem the hour it happens, not the week after. Indiott specifies, stocks and supports the full stack and ships across the UK from local warehouses.
The UK is the largest data centre market in Europe, and in September 2024 the sector was designated Critical National Infrastructure, putting it alongside energy and water for resilience. Operators live and die by two numbers: uptime and Power Usage Effectiveness, and both depend on tight control of temperature, airflow, power and leaks. Dense, low-cost environmental sensing lets facilities teams safely tighten cooling setpoints and spot problems in rooms and edge sites that wired instrumentation never reaches.
Industrial IoT for Data Centres: sensors, gateways and dashboards
Built for Data centre facilities and critical environment engineers, Colocation and hyperscale operators, M&E and DCIM managers, Energy and sustainability managers and Owners of edge sites and enterprise comms rooms. Every asset that fails quietly — a pump, a chiller, a cold store, a plant room — is a candidate for a battery LoRaWAN sensor reporting to one dashboard. Typical Industrial IoT for Data Centres deployments include:
- Rack-inlet temperature, humidity and airflow monitoring to hold ASHRAE envelopes
- Hot-aisle and cold-aisle containment monitoring to drive down PUE
- CRAC and CRAH cooling plant and chilled-water condition monitoring
- UPS, PDU and generator power and fuel-level monitoring with alarms
- Water and coolant leak detection under raised floors and near liquid cooling
- Distributed comms-room and edge-site monitoring on one dashboard
LoRaWAN sensors and gateways for Data centres
The Industrial IoT for Data Centres hardware below is UK-stocked and dispatched nationwide. Every device joins the same five-layer stack, so you can start with one gateway and a handful of sensors and scale without re-platforming.
AM103Indoor air-quality sensorCO2, temperature and humidity in one LoRaWAN sensor for offices, wards and plant rooms.
TS101Insertion temperature sensorLoRaWAN insertion probe for pipe, tank and process temperature.
EM300Leak / contact / T+RH sensorCompact EM300 series for door, leak, temperature and humidity monitoring.
UR35Industrial cellular routerDual-SIM 4G/5G router for resilient connectivity at remote and mobile sites.
UG65Semi-industrial LoRaWAN gateway8-channel indoor gateway backhauling hundreds of LoRaWAN sensors over Ethernet, Wi-Fi or cellular.
EM500Outdoor environmental sensorRugged EM500 series for outdoor CO2, level, pressure and soil measurement.
Compliance and drivers in Data centres
Data centres are not heavily prescriptively regulated, but their designation as Critical National Infrastructure in September 2024 brings greater resilience and security expectations and a dedicated government CNI team. Operators design to Uptime Institute tier availability targets and manage energy under UK climate and energy-efficiency policy, with Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) the headline efficiency metric watched by regulators and customers alike.
Indiott builds the monitoring and evidence layer around those duties: continuous data, threshold alarms that reach the duty engineer by SMS, and timestamped records you can hand to an auditor.

Why Data centres teams choose Indiott
Here is why data centres operators pick Indiott as their Industrial IoT for Data Centres partner rather than a generic reseller.
UK stock, UK delivery
Milesight, Atop and AquaIoT hardware supplied from the UK, typically dispatched within 14 working days nationwide.
Engineer-led, not box-shifting
An engineer scopes every enquiry and returns a costed bill of materials within one working day.
One stack, many brands
Interoperable sense, connect, secure, control and manage layers, so you are never locked to a single vendor.
Bespoke when off-the-shelf ends
When the device you need does not exist, we design and build it — firmware, enclosure and integration.
Industrial IoT for Data Centres: frequently asked questions
Why monitor at rack level rather than just room level?
Room sensors miss hot spots. Rack-inlet temperature and airflow data let you find and fix the worst racks, then tighten setpoints and containment with confidence, which lowers PUE without putting hardware at risk.
Can you cover distributed edge and comms rooms?
Yes. LoRaWAN sensors report from unmanned edge sites and enterprise comms rooms on the same dashboard as the main hall, with alarms on temperature, power and leaks, so remote sites are no longer blind spots.
Does this integrate with our DCIM or BMS?
Sensor data can feed an existing DCIM or BMS through standard interfaces, adding low-cost coverage exactly where wired instrumentation is impractical or too expensive to retrofit.
