Uso do CLP ATOS MPC6006 para Monitoramento e Segurança Física de Ambientes Destinados a Datacenters de Pequeno Porte

Abstract

This work aimed to develop a monitoring and security system for small-scale servers, integrating sensors and actuators with a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) to ensure operational stability and prevent failures. The system was tested on a bench setup using audio, temperature, Gaussian pressure, and gas sensors, along with actuators such as relays, a three-phase motor, and an inverter to simulate a small-scale exhaust system. The PLC was programmed according to the IEC 61131-3 standard to read sensor data, activate the motor in case of smoke detection, and locally communicate alerts and failures. The practical implementation of this project validated the PLC's capability to meet the automation process demands. Furthermore, the project facilitated learning about industrial automation processes, particularly in integrating various devices and applying monitoring concepts in a practical context. As part of future work, the aim is to overcome the hardware limitations faced during development (humidity sensor reading, dynamic motor control, remote communication via Wi-Fi, and laboratory environment adaptation) and to expand the system's functionalities, including the incorporation of new sensors and the implementation of advanced diagnostic and predictive analysis features.
