Long-term conservation of paper, textiles, paintings, photographs, and rare collections depends on stable climate control. iMatrix Neo sensors provide the continuous, defensible record that conservation standards and insurance underwriters expect.
Most cultural institutions follow conservation guidelines adapted from AIC (American Institute for Conservation), ICOM-CC, or the Image Permanence Institute. Typical targets:
The common thread: stability is often more important than hitting an absolute number. Rapid temperature or humidity changes stress materials — a slow drift from 45% to 52% RH is fine; the same swing in two hours is not.
Lending institutions require documented climate conditions before releasing high-value works. Insurance claims for climate-related damage require historical records showing the incident, not just a post-hoc assertion. iMatrix Cloud retains every reading for the life of the deployment — years or decades of data, exportable as signed PDF for any time window.
Neo sensors are small (2.78 × 1.5 × 0.7 in for the NEO-1) and can sit inside display cases, behind objects, or in conservation-appropriate mounts without disturbing the aesthetic. No power cords, no wiring — 3+ year battery and BLE wireless.
Small footprint for display cases and gallery spaces. 3+ year battery.
