Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of electromechanical data monitoring technology, specifically a data monitoring integrated system for hot aisle electromechanical equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Data monitoring of hot aisles and their associated electromechanical equipment is a critical aspect of modern data center operations and management. Hot aisles typically refer to areas within a data center specifically designed to collect heat dissipation from IT equipment. Real-time data monitoring of these areas and their critical equipment (such as precision air conditioners, chillers, and fans) aims to accurately grasp thermal environment parameters (such as temperature and humidity) and equipment operating status (such as energy consumption, power, speed, and fault codes). By deploying various sensors and data acquisition units, information is transmitted to a monitoring platform, allowing administrators to remotely view and analyze data in real time, promptly identify potential risks, optimize airflow organization and equipment operation strategies, and ensure that the data center maintains a stable operating environment while being highly efficient and energy-saving, thus guaranteeing the reliability and lifespan of IT equipment.

[0003] Existing technologies introduce highly integrated techniques and methods for monitoring data from different electromechanical devices within hot aisles, enabling the integration of individual hot aisle electromechanical devices, data interaction, and information sharing and collaborative operation with a DCIM platform. This allows for the commissioning and testing of individual hot aisle electromechanical device data monitoring at the factory. It significantly shortens on-site construction time and reduces on-site construction difficulty, thereby meeting customers' requirements for rapid delivery. For example, integrating electromechanical devices such as small busbars, RPDUs, temperature and humidity sensors, leakage sensors, and CCTV cameras improves the intelligent integration of low-voltage systems in individual hot aisles and enhances on-site construction efficiency.

[0004] However, in the existing technology, the multiple power distribution cabinets set on both sides of the hot aisle will generate a lot of heat when working. The temperature and humidity inside the hot aisle are detected by temperature and humidity sensors above the hot aisle. However, the lack of a real-time monitoring system to display the temperature and humidity inside the hot aisle on the display screen outside the hot aisle cabinet means that personnel need to enter the hot aisle to monitor it. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an integrated data monitoring system for hot aisle electromechanical equipment in order to solve the problems mentioned above.

[0006] The technical solution adopted in this invention is as follows: a data monitoring and integration system for electromechanical equipment in a hot aisle, the system including a top plate of a hot aisle frame cabinet, a temperature and humidity sensor, a right-side power distribution cabinet, a hot aisle pedestrian entrance / exit door, a left-side power distribution cabinet, a hot aisle frame, a hot aisle frame cabinet, a system body, a real-time display screen, bottom heat-conducting liquid cooling pipes, and a pedestrian passage in the middle of the hot aisle.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the thermal aisle frame serves as an integral support structure, extending from the bottom to the top of the cabinet and surrounding it. The top of the hot aisle frame is fitted with a hot aisle frame cabinet top plate, forming a closed structure at the top of the cabinet; The hot aisle frame cabinet is installed around the hot aisle frame, and together with the frame, it forms the complete structure of the cabinet, including the sides and front.

[0008] The temperature and humidity sensor is installed below the top plate of the hot aisle frame cabinet or in a suitable position inside the cabinet, and is connected to the main system via a line to transmit temperature and humidity data.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the right-side power distribution cabinet and the left-side power distribution cabinet are respectively fixed to the left and right sides of the hot aisle frame inside the hot aisle frame cabinet, and are connected to the main system and other components requiring power supply through internal wiring to distribute power. The hot aisle pedestrian entrance is installed on the front or side of the hot aisle frame cabinet, connected to the hot aisle frame and leading to the pedestrian passage in the middle of the hot aisle; The central pedestrian passage of the hot aisle is located in the middle area inside the hot aisle frame cabinet, adjacent to the right and left power distribution cabinets on both sides. Its space is defined by the hot aisle frame and connects the various working areas inside.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the main body of the system is a core control module, which is installed in a suitable position inside the hot aisle frame cabinet and supported and fixed by the hot aisle frame. It is connected to components such as temperature and humidity sensors and real-time display screens through lines, receives sensor data, and controls the operation of the display screen. The real-time display screen is installed on the front of the hot aisle frame cabinet or in a location that is easy to observe, and is connected to the main body of the system via a data cable to display data and operating status in real time.

[0011] The bottom heat-conducting liquid cooling pipes are laid at the bottom of the heat channel frame cabinet, fixed by the heat channel frame and connected to the system heat dissipation circulation system pipes.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the internal structure of the system body includes: Multi-source data acquisition module: Responsible for compatible access to real-time data from various devices such as temperature and humidity sensors, right-side power distribution cabinet, and left-side power distribution cabinet. Supports industrial communication protocols such as Modbus, RS485, and CAN bus. It receives raw data such as temperature and humidity values, power distribution cabinet current / voltage / load rate through standardized interfaces and performs preliminary verification to ensure the validity of the input data.

[0013] Intelligent data processing and analysis module: performs in-depth processing on the collected raw data; The raw data includes: temperature and humidity data: calculating the average temperature and humidity inside the cabinet and the gradient distribution, and predicting the temperature and humidity trend for the next 30 minutes through a preset algorithm; power data: analyzing the load balance of the distribution cabinet, the frequency of current / voltage fluctuations, and identifying abnormal power consumption patterns. The intelligent data processing and analysis module correlates multi-dimensional data to generate a comprehensive evaluation value of the equipment's operating status.

[0014] Storage and Interaction Module: Specifically includes: Local storage unit: adopts industrial-grade solid-state storage, storing temperature and humidity curves, power distribution cabinet power parameter logs, and equipment anomaly records during the storage period; External Interaction Unit: Supports bidirectional communication with the DCIM platform, uploads real-time data and analysis results via API interface, and receives configuration commands issued by the platform.

[0015] Display control and user interaction module: bound to the real-time display screen, responsible for data visualization output. Anomaly warning and linkage control module: Threshold warning: When the temperature and humidity exceed the preset upper limit or the load rate of the power distribution cabinet is greater than 90%, a level three alarm is triggered; Linkage control: Linked with the bottom heat conduction liquid cooling pipe, when the cabinet temperature is detected to be rising continuously, the flow rate of the liquid cooling pipe is automatically adjusted to realize the "detection-analysis-control" closed loop.

[0016] The power and fault tolerance management module is equipped with an automatic switching function between the main power supply and the backup power supply to ensure that the system can maintain basic monitoring functions even when there is an external power outage. Fault self-diagnosis: Regularly check the operating status of each submodule. If an abnormality is found, immediately mark the faulty device and report it to the display screen and DCIM platform.

[0017] The anomaly warning and linkage control module is based on multi-dimensional data fusion analysis. It achieves graded warnings by setting dynamic risk thresholds and forms a closed-loop control with the liquid cooling system. The module first receives real-time temperature and humidity data from temperature and humidity sensors and load rate data from the right and left power distribution cabinets, and calculates the comprehensive risk index R of the current cabinet. When R is below the first-level threshold, there is no action; when it is between R1 and the second-level threshold, a red flashing warning is triggered on the display screen; when it is between R2 and the third-level threshold, an external audible and visual alarm is activated; and when it exceeds R3, a text message / APP notification is sent to the maintenance personnel.

[0018] The module achieves linkage control by adjusting the flow rate Q of the bottom heat-conducting liquid cooling pipe: when R≤R1, Q maintains the basic flow rate Q0; When R1<R≤R2, Q=Q0×(1+0.1×(R-R1) / (R2-R1)); When R2 < R ≤ R3, Q = Q0 × (1 + 0.2 × (R - R2) / (R3 - R2)); R > R l When Q = Q0 × 1.5, ensure that the cabinet temperature gradually increases as the risk increases, thus enhancing the heat dissipation capacity.

[0019] The formula for calculating the comprehensive risk index R is: In the formula: α, β, and γ are the weighting coefficients for temperature, humidity, and load balance, respectively. T represents the current cabinet temperature. n T represents the upper limit of normal temperature. m This is the upper limit of the temperature danger zone; H represents the current humidity level of the cabinet. n The upper limit of normal humidity, H m Maximum humidity level; L1 and L2 are the real-time load rates of the left and right distribution cabinets, respectively. max This represents the maximum permissible difference in load balancing.

[0020] In a preferred embodiment, the temperature and humidity sensor comprises a detection element, a signal conversion unit, a protective housing, and a connection interface. The detection element uses temperature and humidity-sensitive materials; the temperature detection component is typically a high-precision thermistor or thermocouple, while the humidity detection component is mostly a capacitive or resistive humidity-sensitive element. Both are integrated on the same substrate to synchronously collect environmental parameters. The signal conversion unit has a built-in analog-to-digital converter chip that converts the analog electrical signal output by the detection element into a digital signal, ensuring stable data transmission. The protective housing is made of corrosion-resistant engineering plastic or metal, with micropores or a breathable membrane on its surface, protecting the internal components from dust and liquid corrosion while ensuring effective contact between the ambient temperature and humidity and the detection element. The connection interface is a standardized industrial terminal block, connected to the multi-source data acquisition module of the main system via a shielded cable to achieve real-time data transmission.

[0021] In a preferred embodiment, the right-side distribution cabinet consists of a cabinet structure, a main power distribution bus, branch control components, and a monitoring unit.

[0022] In a preferred embodiment, the hot aisle frame cabinet consists of a frame support structure, an outer panel, sealing components, and equipment mounting positions.

[0023] In a preferred embodiment, the real-time display screen comprises a display panel, a driving circuit, a protective frame, and a data interface. The display panel uses an industrial-grade LCD or LED screen with wide operating temperature range and a resolution adapted to the cabinet size, typically 800×600 or 1024×768. The driving circuit is integrated on the back of the screen and includes a microcontroller and a signal decoding chip, responsible for receiving digital signals transmitted by the main system and converting them into a driving voltage recognizable by the display panel. The protective frame is made of metal, with edges that fit snugly against the installation position of the hot aisle frame cabinet. The surface is treated with an anti-slip coating, and some models have a light-shielding eave on the top of the frame to reduce ambient light reflection. The data interface uses an industrial-grade DB9 or RJ45 interface, connected to the display control module of the main system via a shielded cable, supporting real-time data updates and interface switching command transmission.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment, the bottom heat-conducting liquid cooling pipe consists of a pipe body, connecting joints, a fixing bracket, and a flow regulating component. The pipe body is made of copper or aluminum alloy, with a circular or flattened oval cross-section. Heat dissipation fins can be pressed onto the surface to increase the heat exchange area. It is laid horizontally or vertically along the bottom of the cabinet. The connecting joints include straight joints, elbows, and tee joints, using threaded or clamp connections for pipe segment splicing and connection to an external coolant circulation system. The fixing bracket is an L-shaped metal plate, bolted to the bottom of the heat channel frame. An arc-shaped groove is provided on the bracket; the pipe body is embedded in the groove and fixed by elastic clamps to prevent pipe displacement due to vibration. The flow regulating component is an electromagnetic regulating valve or a manual shut-off valve, installed at the pipe inlet or outlet. It is connected to the system's main body's abnormal warning module via a control line and can automatically adjust the coolant flow rate based on the internal temperature data of the cabinet.

[0025] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. In this invention, the digital display screen on the outer perimeter of the cabinet works in conjunction with the real-time temperature and humidity monitoring system, effectively improving the visualization of temperature and humidity data and the efficiency of anomaly response. Traditionally, temperature and humidity data must be obtained by opening the cabinet or logging into the backend system. This design directly presents the real-time monitored temperature and humidity data on the external display screen of the cabinet, allowing maintenance personnel to intuitively view the current temperature and humidity status without additional operation. When the data exceeds the limit value, the anomaly information is immediately displayed on the screen, shortening the time lag between data anomaly and manual identification, significantly improving the timeliness of anomaly detection. Furthermore, for multi-cabinet scenarios, the independently configured peripheral display screens of each cabinet enable centralized management of the status of multiple devices. Maintenance personnel can quickly scan the display screens of each cabinet to simultaneously grasp the temperature and humidity data and anomalies of multiple cabinets, avoiding the tedious process of checking or switching interfaces one by one. This design reduces the risk of missed detections, ensuring that temperature and humidity anomalies during multi-cabinet operation can be quickly located and handled, effectively enhancing management efficiency under multi-device collaborative operation.

[0026] 2. In this invention, the anomaly warning and linkage control module significantly improves the efficiency of detecting and addressing equipment malfunctions through real-time monitoring of multi-dimensional data and a tiered warning mechanism. Previously, relying on manual inspections or alarms based on single parameter exceedances easily missed potential problems. Now, the system can simultaneously detect multiple issues such as abnormal temperature and humidity, and unbalanced loads in distribution cabinets, triggering alerts in tiers based on risk levels. This allows maintenance personnel to quickly assess the severity of the anomaly and take corresponding measures, preventing minor issues from escalating into major malfunctions and effectively enhancing real-time control over equipment operating status.

[0027] 3. In this invention, the module's linkage control function realizes a transformation from "passive alarm" to "active intervention." When an increased risk is detected, the system automatically adjusts the coolant flow rate of the bottom heat-conducting liquid cooling pipes to promptly reduce the cabinet temperature or balance the equipment load, reducing problems such as equipment overheating and wiring aging caused by high temperatures or uneven loads. This closed-loop design of "detection-analysis-control" reduces reliance on manual operation, lowers the possibility of human error, effectively ensures the stable operation of hot aisle electromechanical equipment, and extends the actual service life of the equipment.

Detailed Implementation

[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.

[0031] Example: Reference Figure 1-2 A data monitoring and integration system for electromechanical equipment in a hot aisle, comprising a hot aisle frame cabinet top plate 1, a temperature and humidity sensor 2, a right-side power distribution cabinet 3, a hot aisle pedestrian entrance / exit door 4, a left-side power distribution cabinet 5, a hot aisle frame 6, a hot aisle frame cabinet 7, a system main body 8, a real-time display screen 9, a bottom heat-conducting liquid cooling pipe 10, and a pedestrian passage in the middle of the hot aisle 11.

[0032] The hot aisle frame 6 serves as the overall support structure, extending from the bottom to the top of the cabinet and surrounding it. The top of the hot aisle frame 6 is fitted with the top plate 1 of the hot aisle frame cabinet, forming a closed structure at the top of the cabinet. The hot aisle frame cabinet 7 is installed around the hot aisle frame 6, and together with the frame, it forms the complete structure of the cabinet, including the sides and front.

[0033] Temperature and humidity sensor 2 is installed below the top plate 1 of the hot aisle frame cabinet or in a suitable position inside the cabinet, and is connected to the main body of the system 8 through a line to transmit temperature and humidity data.

[0034] The right-side power distribution cabinet 3 and the left-side power distribution cabinet 5 are respectively fixed to the left and right sides of the hot aisle frame 6 inside the hot aisle frame cabinet 7. They are connected to the main system 8 and other components requiring power supply through internal wiring to distribute power. The hot aisle pedestrian access door 4 is installed on the front or side of the hot aisle frame cabinet 7, connected to the hot aisle frame 6 and connected to the pedestrian passage 11 in the middle of the hot aisle. The central pedestrian passage 11 of the hot aisle is located in the middle area inside the hot aisle frame cabinet 7, adjacent to the right-side power distribution cabinet 3 and the left-side power distribution cabinet 5 on both sides. Its space is defined by the hot aisle frame 6 and connects the various internal work areas.

[0035] The main body 8 is the core control module, which is installed in a suitable position inside the hot aisle frame cabinet 7 and supported and fixed by the hot aisle frame 6. It is connected to components such as temperature and humidity sensor 2 and real-time display screen 9 through lines, receives sensor data and controls the display screen to work. The real-time display screen 9 is installed on the front of the hot aisle frame cabinet 7 or in a position that is easy to observe, and is connected to the main system 8 via a data cable to display data and operating status in real time.

[0036] The bottom heat-conducting liquid cooling pipe 10 is laid at the bottom of the hot channel frame cabinet 7, fixed by the hot channel frame 6 and connected to the system heat dissipation circulation system pipe.

[0037] The internal settings of the main body 8 of the system include: Multi-source data acquisition module: Responsible for compatible access to real-time data from various devices such as temperature and humidity sensor 2, right-side power distribution cabinet 3, and left-side power distribution cabinet 5. Supports industrial communication protocols such as Modbus, RS485, and CAN bus. It receives raw data such as temperature and humidity values ​​(from temperature and humidity sensors) and power distribution cabinet current / voltage / load rate (from the left and right power distribution cabinets) through standardized interfaces, and performs preliminary verification (such as judging the reasonableness of the value range) to ensure the validity of the input data.

[0038] Intelligent data processing and analysis module: performs in-depth processing on the collected raw data; The raw data includes: temperature and humidity data: calculate the average temperature and humidity inside the cabinet and the gradient distribution (combined with sensor locations), and predict the temperature and humidity trend for the next 30 minutes using a preset algorithm (such as linear fitting based on historical data); power data: analyze the load balance of the distribution cabinet (power difference between the left and right distribution cabinets), the frequency of current / voltage fluctuations, and identify abnormal power consumption patterns (such as instantaneous overload). The intelligent data processing and analysis module correlates multi-dimensional data (such as the correlation between high temperature and high load on the distribution cabinet) to generate a comprehensive evaluation value of the equipment's operating status (0-100 points, with lower scores indicating higher risk).

[0039] Storage and Interaction Module: Specifically includes: Local storage unit: adopts industrial-grade solid-state storage, storing temperature and humidity curves, power distribution cabinet power parameter logs, and equipment anomaly records during the storage period; External Interaction Unit: Supports bidirectional communication with the DCIM platform (Data Center Infrastructure Management Platform), uploads real-time data and analysis results through API interface, and receives configuration commands issued by the platform (such as adjusting temperature and humidity thresholds and modifying the display interface layout).

[0040] Display control and user interaction module: bound to real-time display screen 9, responsible for data visualization output. Anomaly warning and linkage control module: Threshold warning: When the temperature and humidity exceed the preset upper limit (e.g., temperature > 35℃) or the load rate of the distribution cabinet > 90%, a three-level alarm is triggered (Level 1: red flashing indicator on the display screen; Level 2: external audible and visual alarm activated; Level 3: SMS / APP notification sent to maintenance personnel's mobile phones). Linkage control: Linked with the bottom heat conduction liquid cooling pipe 10, when the cabinet temperature is detected to be rising continuously, the flow rate of the liquid cooling pipe is automatically adjusted (e.g., the flow rate increases by 10% for every 2°C increase in temperature), realizing a closed loop of "detection-analysis-control".

[0041] The power and fault tolerance management module is equipped with an automatic switching function between the main power supply and the backup power supply to ensure that the system can maintain basic monitoring functions even when there is an external power outage. Fault self-diagnosis: Regularly check the operating status of each sub-module (such as communication delay of data acquisition module and read / write rate of storage unit). If an abnormality is found (such as sensor disconnection), immediately mark the faulty device and report it to the display screen and DCIM platform.

[0042] The anomaly warning and linkage control module is based on multi-dimensional data fusion analysis. It achieves graded warnings by setting dynamic risk thresholds and forms a closed-loop control in conjunction with the liquid cooling system. The module first receives real-time temperature and humidity data T and H from temperature and humidity sensor 2 and load rate data (L1 and L2) from the right-side power distribution cabinet 3 and the left-side power distribution cabinet 5, and calculates the comprehensive risk index R of the current cabinet. When R is lower than the first-level threshold (R1), there is no action. When R is between R1 and the second-level threshold (R2), a red flashing prompt is triggered on the display screen (first-level alarm). When R is between R2 and the third-level threshold (R3), an external audible and visual alarm is activated (second-level alarm). When R exceeds R3, a text message / APP notification is sent to the maintenance personnel (third-level alarm).

[0043] The module achieves linkage control by adjusting the flow rate Q of the bottom heat-conducting liquid cooling pipe 10: when R≤R1, Q maintains the basic flow rate Q0; When R1<R≤R2, Q=Q0×(1+0.1×(R-R1) / (R2-R1)); When R2 < R ≤ R3, Q = Q0 × (1 + 0.2 × (R - R2) / (R3 - R2)); When R > R3, Q = Q0 × 1.5 (maximum safe flow rate) to ensure that the cabinet temperature gradually increases as the risk increases and the heat dissipation capacity increases.

[0044] The formula for calculating the comprehensive risk index R is: In the formula: α, β, and γ are the weighting coefficients for temperature, humidity, and load balance, respectively (α+β+γ=1); T represents the current cabinet temperature. nThe upper limit of normal temperature (e.g., 35℃), T m H represents the upper limit of the temperature hazard range (e.g., 45℃); H represents the current humidity of the cabinet. n The upper limit of normal humidity (e.g., 70% RH), H m The upper limit of humidity hazard (e.g., 85% RH); L1 and L2 are the real-time load rates (0≤L≤100%) of the left and right distribution cabinets, respectively. max This represents the maximum permissible difference in load balancing (e.g., 20%). This formula transforms the degree of anomaly across different dimensions into a unified risk value through normalization, while also introducing a load balancing index. This overcomes the limitations of traditional single-parameter early warning systems and better aligns with the actual scenario of multi-device collaborative operation in hot aisles.

[0045] The temperature and humidity sensor 2 consists of a detection element, a signal conversion unit, a protective housing, and a connection interface. The detection element uses temperature and humidity-sensitive materials; the temperature detection part is typically a high-precision thermistor or thermocouple, while the humidity detection part is mostly a capacitive or resistive humidity-sensitive element. Both are integrated on the same substrate to synchronously collect environmental parameters. The signal conversion unit has a built-in analog-to-digital converter chip that converts the analog electrical signal output by the detection element into a digital signal, ensuring stable data transmission. The protective housing is made of corrosion-resistant engineering plastic or metal, with micropores or a breathable membrane on the surface, protecting the internal components from dust and liquid corrosion while ensuring effective contact between the ambient temperature and humidity and the detection element. The connection interface uses standardized industrial terminal blocks and connects to the multi-source data acquisition module of the main system 8 via a shielded cable to achieve real-time data transmission.

[0046] The right-side distribution cabinet 3 consists of a cabinet structure, a main power distribution busbar, branch control components, and a monitoring unit. The cabinet structure is made of cold-rolled steel plate with a rust-proof coating. It features an openable maintenance door on the front and a layered internal layout to distinguish between high-voltage and low-voltage lines. The main power distribution busbar is made of copper and runs longitudinally along the cabinet, serving as the main channel for power input. The branch control components include multiple sets of molded case circuit breakers and fuses, corresponding to the power output branches of different electromechanical equipment. The circuit breakers have overload and short-circuit protection functions and can be manually or remotely operated. The monitoring unit integrates a current transformer, a voltage transmitter, and an energy metering chip, installed on the main busbar and each branch, for real-time acquisition of power parameters such as current, voltage, and power. It connects to the multi-source data acquisition module of the main system 8 via internal wiring to provide feedback on the operating status.

[0047] The hot aisle frame cabinet 7 mainly consists of a frame support structure, outer panels, sealing components, and equipment mounting positions. The frame support structure is welded from metal profiles (such as square steel pipes or angle steel) that match the hot aisle frame 6, and is distributed around the cabinet to form a stable mechanical support system. The outer panels are metal sheets, fixed to the outside of the frame support structure with bolts or clips, covering the front, sides, and back of the cabinet, with some areas having reserved ventilation holes or wiring holes. The sealing components use rubber sealing strips, which are embedded in the joints between the outer panels and the frame support structure, as well as the edges of the hot aisle pedestrian entrance 4, to prevent external dust and liquids from seeping into the cabinet. The equipment mounting positions are pre-set screw holes or brackets on the inside of the frame support structure, used to fix modules such as the right-side distribution cabinet 3, the left-side distribution cabinet 5, and the main system 8, ensuring the stability of each device inside the cabinet.

[0048] The real-time display screen 9 consists of a display panel, a driving circuit, a protective frame, and a data interface. The display panel uses an industrial-grade LCD or LED screen with a wide operating temperature range (-20℃ to 60℃). The resolution is adapted to the cabinet size, typically 800×600 or 1024×768. The driving circuit is integrated on the back of the screen and includes a microcontroller and a signal decoding chip. It is responsible for receiving digital signals transmitted by the main system (8) and converting them into driving voltages that the display panel can recognize. The protective frame is made of metal and its edges fit tightly against the installation position of the hot aisle frame cabinet 7. The surface is treated with anti-slip material, and some models have a light-shielding eave on the top of the frame to reduce ambient light reflection. The data interface uses an industrial-grade DB9 or RJ45 interface and is connected to the display control module of the main system (8) through a shielded cable. It supports real-time data updates and interface switching command transmission.

[0049] The bottom heat-conducting liquid cooling pipe 10 consists of a pipe body, connecting joints, fixed supports, and flow regulation components. The pipe body is made of copper or aluminum alloy, with a circular or flattened oval cross-section. Heat dissipation fins can be pressed onto the surface to increase the heat exchange area. It is laid horizontally or vertically along the bottom of the cabinet. The connecting joints include straight joints, elbows, and tee joints, using threaded or clamp connections for pipe segment splicing and docking with the external coolant circulation system. The fixed supports are L-shaped metal plates, fixed to the bottom of the hot channel frame 6 with bolts. The supports have arc-shaped grooves, and the pipe body is embedded in the grooves and fixed by elastic clamps to prevent the pipe from shifting due to vibration. The flow regulation components are electromagnetic regulating valves or manual shut-off valves, installed at the pipe inlet or outlet. They are connected to the abnormal warning module of the system body 8 via control lines and can automatically adjust the coolant flow rate according to the internal temperature data of the cabinet.

[0050] From the above, we can conclude that: In this invention, the digital display screen on the outer perimeter of the cabinet works in conjunction with the real-time temperature and humidity monitoring system, effectively improving the visualization of temperature and humidity data and the efficiency of anomaly response. Traditionally, temperature and humidity data needs to be obtained by opening the cabinet or logging into the backend system.

Previously, relying on manual inspections or alarms based on single parameter exceedances easily missed potential problems. Now, the system can simultaneously detect multiple issues such as abnormal temperature and humidity, and unbalanced loads in distribution cabinets. It triggers alerts in tiers based on risk level (e.g., display flashing, audible and visual alarms, SMS notifications), allowing maintenance personnel to quickly assess the severity of the anomaly and take corresponding measures. This prevents minor issues from escalating into major malfunctions and effectively enhances the real-time control over equipment operating status.

[0052] In this invention, the module's linkage control function transforms the system from "passive alarm" to "active intervention." When an increased risk is detected, the system automatically adjusts the coolant flow rate in the bottom heat-conducting liquid cooling pipes (e.g., increasing the flow rate when the temperature continues to rise), promptly reducing the cabinet temperature or balancing the equipment load, thus mitigating problems such as equipment overheating and wiring aging caused by high temperatures or uneven loads. This closed-loop design of "detection-analysis-control" reduces reliance on manual operation, lowers the possibility of human error, effectively ensures the stable operation of hot aisle electromechanical equipment, and extends the actual service life of the equipment.
