Server Room Temperature Monitor Kit with ESP32 + DHT22 v14
Build Your Own Zigbee-Connected Server Room Temperature Monitor with ESP32-C6 and DHT22
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Your server room’s temperature shouldn’t be a guessing game. With this kit, you assemble a compact ESP32-C6 device that uses Zigbee to stream real-time DHT22 readings straight into your existing Zigbee2MQTT dashboard. No more surprise heat spikes — just reliable data from a sensor you built yourself.
What You'll Build
A self-contained temperature monitor that tucks neatly into a server rack or enclosure. Once assembled and paired, it silently reports ambient temperature and humidity to your Zigbee2MQTT network. You can set up alerts, log historical data, or trigger cooling systems automatically — all with a device you soldered from scratch.
What You'll Learn
- How to solder through-hole components and create clean connections on a prototype PCB
- Configuring the ESP32-C6’s built-in Zigbee stack to join a mesh network
- Interfacing the DHT22 digital sensor and parsing its data protocol
- Integrating a DIY Zigbee end device with Zigbee2MQTT for real-world IoT monitoring

Who This Kit Is For
CBSE Class 11–12 students building IoT projects for practicals, B.Tech ECE/EEE learners exploring wireless sensor networks, and Smart India Hackathon teams prototyping remote monitoring solutions will find this kit immediately useful. ATL Tinkering Labs and institutional buyers from IIT, NIT, VIT, or BITS campuses can deploy multiple kits for lab coursework or hackathon booths.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Your AI companion walks you through each step, from soldering to Zigbee pairing. If that isn’t enough, reach us on WhatsApp for direct troubleshooting.
Can I use this kit to monitor multiple server racks?
Build one kit per rack. Each monitor appears as a separate Zigbee2MQTT device, so you can name them by location and view all readings in one dashboard.
Do I need a separate Zigbee coordinator to use this?
Yes. Your Zigbee2MQTT setup already has a coordinator like a CC2531 or Sonoff dongle. The kit’s ESP32-C6 pairs with that coordinator — it acts as a router-ready end device.
What’s the typical indoor range of this Zigbee sensor?
In a server room with metal racks, expect 10–15 meters direct to the coordinator. Mesh routing extends coverage if you have other mains-powered Zigbee devices in between.
Data Centre — ESP32-C6 in tiny enclosure joins Zigbee network and sends DHT22 readings. Pairs with Zigbee2MQTT.
