St Andrews Preservation Trust Museum is using 7 Tinytag Ultra data loggers in its galleries to monitor the temperature and relative humidity every 10 minutes. This is important as the collections can be damaged if subjected to high variations in temperature and humidity. The monitoring equipment allows the Museum to check the conditions in which the collections are displayed and stored, and to make changes to the environment where necessary. Based on the results, decisions can be taken, for example, to alter the heating to specific spaces or introduce a dehumidifier if necessary.
