Abstract:
An on-site environment monitoring system for monitoring at least one condition of an environment, the system comprising:a) at least one on-site environment condition sensor within said environment for sensing temperature or humidity of said environment;b) an on-site alarm device within said environment;c) an on-site alert system mounted within, isolated from, and visible from within said environment and comprising an on-site programmable microprocessor for activating said on-site alarm device and in communication with the at least one environment condition sensor, said microprocessor programmable with pre-set respective ranges of environment condition values such that activation of the on-site alarm device occurs when at least one on-site sensed environment condition value is below or above said pre-set range of values; andd) a dedicated housing within said environment and outside of which is the at least one on-site environment condition sensor and within which the microprocessor is disposed, said housing accessible through an opening having a door securable in a closed configuration with a non-alarm securement device to thereby prohibit unauthorized microprocessor intrusion.
