Background

The Egyptian Museum in Turin is the oldest museum in the world dedicated to ancient Egyptian civilisation, and second only to the Egyptian Museum in Cairo in terms of exhibition quality. In 2015 the site was refurbished, resulting in exhibition space doubling, among other things.

The solution

During the work, and in view of the inauguration of the new setup, the organisation Fondazione Museo delle Antichità Egizie di Torino decided to install a modern thermo-hygrometric monitoring system to accurately measure and log temperature and humidity parameters in the exhibition rooms. The WineCap™ systems were selected, to enable accurate reliable and clear supervision of all necessary environmental parameters.  

The result

The data are captured, logged and displayed in the Service Centre according to the sampling timescales selected during the installation phase, but these can be changed by the customer at any time. The same applies to settings for alert thresholds; it is sufficient to access the cloud using the protected login details to set new thresholds or change existing thresholds, remotely, reliably and conveniently.
