Reliable monitoring of ambient conditions in a display cabinet plays a decisive role in an early warning of potential problems. An unstable micro-climate in the display cabinet can result in the artwork damage. A Wi-Fi data logger from the testo 160 family will detect when the pre-set alarm points are crossed and will send notifications. This small Wi-Fi data logger can also be placed inside the base of the display cabinet with the small external probe hidden in proximity to the displayed object.

 

 

Paintings, sculptures and other displayed items may be damaged by an unsuitable climate in the exhibit room. Micro-cracks and fissures, which gradually grow larger, are the consequence of an unsuitable or highly fluctuating ambient climate. With the testo 160 series Wi-Fi data loggers you can always monitor the key parameters of temperature and relative humidity. As loan items are often exhibited, the loan agreements often require to document the exhibit’s ambient environment. The Testo Cloud data storage can allow lenders to view the current climate conditions at any time. Testo 160 loggers come with paintable covers to enable their concealment within the exhibit space.

 

 

Unsuitable light conditions, as well as the wrong indoor climate, pose a huge risk to exhibition objects. They accelerate natural ageing processes and cause irreparable micro-cracks and discolouration. Prevent exhibits from losing their value and preserve cultural heritage with a WiFi data logger from the testo 160 series. Use the WiFi data logger to monitor humidity and temperature, and check lux and UV radiation. In this way, you can protect your museum objects against climate-related damage and discolouration. 

 

 

Museums generally only exhibit a small proportion of their objects. As the majority of a museum's inventory is stored at a depot, reliable monitoring of the ambient conditions is particularly important here. Constant and suitable ambient conditions are important for decelerating the natural ageing processes of museum objects. A WiFi data logger from the testo 160 range helps you properly monitor and document the storage of your collections.
