Abstract

In this project, the Development of Low-Cost Data Logger mainly focuses on Pulp and Paper Industry. The warehouse seems to be involved in fire incidents and mould growth that can cause death and losses. The data logger consists of temperature, humidity, altitude, and pressure using the BME280 sensor. It also has an MQ2 gas/ smoke sensor to detect flammable gases such as LPG, propane, methane, hydrogen, alcohol, smoke, and carbon monoxide. The mainboard of this data logger is made up of a Wi-Fi module microcontroller to connect to the smartphone using Blynk Application, an alkaline battery 9v, oled display and power bank 10000mah as the power supply. The project presents a data collection system to focus on Pulp and Paper Warehouse to monitor the condition and environment by using Waterfall Model. It has 6 phases: requirement analysis, system design To run successfully, it has six phases: requirement analysis, system design, implementation, testing, deployment, and maintenance. So, developing a low-cost data logger may help the industry in monitoring data. If the designated threshold of the data logger is surpassed, the user will get an alert signal from the microcontroller. Therefore, the data logger will help the user detect high temperatures and smoke that can cause fire incidents at the beginning phase. Besides, it can notify the user if the relative humidity exceeds the regular reading, which helps to prevent mould growth. This project is significant because it uses a BME280 temperature, humidity, altitude, and pressure sensor, which is more accurate than the other sensor. Hopefully, the future work of this project can add more functionality and make a case for the prototype to look neat. Besides, improve gas/ smoke detectors with sprinkle systems, a self-contained system that detects, controls, and extinguishes fires while also alerting residents.
