Description
The Vaisala Continuous Monitoring System (CMS) (viewlinc) is a solution designed to measure, record, analyze and alarm on critical environmental conditions in regulated industries and demanding industrial environments. Its goal is to ensure regulatory compliance, data integrity and product protection.
A CMS allows real-time measurement of key environmental variables to detect deviations, analyze trends and ensure that processes remain within acceptable limits. This is critical in sectors such as pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, laboratories, food, temperature-controlled logistics and cleanrooms.
The most common variables include:
- Temperature.
- Relative humidity.
- Dew point.
- CO₂.
- Differential pressure.
- Environmental particles.
- Door or status contacts, among others.
Vaisala CMS features:
The system combines:
1. viewLinc Enterprise Server software
- Web interface accessible from any location.
- Alarm notifications by mail, SMS, call, signal tower or PC.
- Customized reports and full audit (complies with 21 CFR Part 11 and Annex 11).
2. Vaisala measuring equipment
- Data loggers, intelligent probes and high-precision transmitters.
- VaiNet wireless devices (based on LoRa® for long distance and low power consumption).
3. Integration with third parties
- Compatible with Modbus devices.
- Integration via OPC UA or viewLinc API.
Flexible connectivity
- Ethernet.
- Power over Ethernet (PoE).
- Wi-Fi.
- VaiNet Wireless.
This facilitates fast implementations, without the need for complex cabling, and allows monitoring from one to more than 1000 points, even across multiple sites.
Alarms and notifications
- On-screen alerts.
- Email.
- SMS.
- Telephone calls.
- Light towers or relays.
- Alarms can be managed remotely from a cell phone or tablet.
Regulatory compliance and validation
- IQ/OQ validation,
- GAMP documentary packages,
- Complete audit and data traceability,
- Multilevel security (Windows, domain, local user).
Typical applications
