Temperature control in exhibit cases

I recently worked on the Dead Sea Scrolls Project at the Royal
Ontario Museum, and they were using the Microclimate System from
Keepsafe.  The system provides a centralized source of temperature
and humidity controlled air that can be distributed to the cases.  I
would expect that one of the drawbacks would be that each machine
would only provide one type of air, but you would need to confirm
that.

The system we supplied to the Royal Ontario Museum was a wireless
temperature and humidity monitoring system that has the ability to
be remotely monitored, and can be programmed to send alarm notices
out via e-mail and text messages.  While I am admittedly biased
towards our system, most new environmental monitoring systems should
have this without any monitoring costs aside from standard text
messaging rates.
