A leading provider of cutting-edge climate monitoring solutions, Bev/Art, has launched a sensor buy-back programme that is only available for a limited time.
The initiative allows institutions to trade in their outdated, bulky data loggers and receive a discount on Bev/Art’s state-of-the-art sensors.
Bev/Art provides sensors for libraries and archives, heritage institutions, and museums.
Under the buy-back programme, institutions can trade in their current data loggers and receive a $45/€45/£35 discount per unit on new Bev/Art wireless sensors.
The new sensors are not only the most advanced on the market – measuring just 20mm, with a 10-year battery life and no need for calibration – but Bev/Art will also assist with the seamless transition by uploading historical climate data from the old loggers into its platform.
This ensures continuity in climate monitoring without data loss, making the switch effortless for conservators.
Institutions will have full access to Bev/Art’s platform and services through the end of 2025, giving them ample time to assess the solution’s value.
After that, they’re free to renew or discontinue the service as they see fit.
Bev/Art CEO, Håvard Lystrup, said there are no long-term contract obligations.
“We’ve heard from many of our customers that their legacy systems are no longer being supported by previous vendors, as they move out of the museum and heritage industry,” he said.
“Our mission has always been to make it easier for museums and heritage institutions to protect the priceless objects and artifacts they care for. This buy-back programme is another way we are reducing barriers to upgrading technology.
“By offering a discount and taking care of historical data transfers, we’re making the process as smooth as possible so institutions can focus on what they do best—preserving cultural heritage.”
The programme is available until 31 December, 2024, and is open to all museums, heritage sites, libraries, and other institutions dedicated to preserving cultural treasures.
