Rittal Multi Control

CMC-TC monitoring system

The availability of IT systems is a critical factor for most companies. The security of your IT infrastructure begins with a single rack. The Computer Multi Control Top-Concept (CMC-TC)
from Rittal is a complete security management for preventive protection to guard against consequential costs, and the central organisational unit for linking to facility management.

Electronic systems with monitoring of temperatures, fans and DC voltages.

Active Power System Module PSM, Power Control Unit PCU
The sockets may be activated directly by the Processing Unit II (max. 4 x 4 x 8 sockets), combined with an ammeter.

RTT I/O Unit
Up to 10 climate control devices with Comfort controller may be connected via one unit in master/slave mode.

Liquid Cooling Package LCP
The professional LCP water cooling system for data centres may be linked directly to the Processing Unit II.

Processing Unit II (PU II) the nerve centre of the CMC-TC monitoring system
The PU II is the coordinator between the sensor unit and the network. It is configured via the integral Web server.

I/O Unit Wireless
Up to 16 sensors may be wirelessly incorporated into the CMC-TC system via this unit.

Access unit
The doors of buildings, rooms and enclosures may be monitored, activated and opened via the network.

Climate unit, Fan Control, System FCS
Fans are controlled via temperature sensors. Airflow monitors report any contamination of the filter mat, for example. The fan speed is controlled and monitored via the FCS.

Universal I/O Unit
This measurement and alarm module indicates motion, vibrations, doors beeing opened, temperatures exceeded, and much more besides. The sensors may be selected for the application.

Broad diversity of interfaces:
• 10/100BaseT full-duplex
• RS232 – ISDN
• GSM
• Protocols: TCP/IP, SNMPv1, SNMPv3, FTP, SFTP, SMTP, HTTPS, NTP, SSH, PPP, DHCP

Freely selectable power supply:
• 24 V DC
• 48 V DC
• 90 - 230 V AC
• Single or redundant

Reliable self-monitoring:
• Permanent monitoring of sensors and modules
• Immediate notification of any interruption to the cable connection

: Security – individual and flexible
The CMC-TC offers a new dimension in flexibility, efficiency, technology and cost-effectiveness.
The modular master/slave system uses network technology as its communication system. In the past, bus systems were used for this purpose, but the CMC-TC system uses TCP/IP and SNMP for communication between the Master and Processing Unit II. This gives users the option of working with high performance, i.e. the CMC-TC master, or only with the Processing Unit II. The standardised interface on the Processing Unit II (PU II) allows even small individual applications to be achieved cost-effectively. The Master II may also be used.

CMC-TC manager – the network management system: CMC-TC network management system – Comprehensive monitoring

The CMC-TC manageris the central signalling point for CMC-TC alarms. All processing units integrated into the network automatically transmit alarms, which are listed and archived.

Benefits at a glance:
• Alarm forwarding via e-mail
• Graphical representation of temperature variation
• Alarm overview
• Log data function
• Easy operation

Modular flexibility
A wide range of modules allows selection of the different monitoring functions. The modular layout and almost limitless extendibility allow the CMC-TC to grow along with your requirements.

: Everything the operator of climate control components needs to know – from control to administration.

: Monitoring of access control ensures regulated access to the rack.

: Comprehensive monitoring and control – from the active PSM to intelligent subdistribution of electricity.

: CMC-TC wireless sensor network
Cabling to the sensor is eliminated. Secure, encrypted radio transmission. Networking capabilities with the CMC-TC monitoring system.

: Simple installation based on the plug & play system
The sensors and sensor modules are connected via plug & play using RJ 12 patch cables. The sensors are detected automatically.
