Abstract
A method for monitoring that includes the steps of: associating a monitoring module with a heat exchanger unit; operating the monitoring module whereby a microcontroller performs various tasks, and ultimately providing an indication; and taking an action based on the indication. The monitoring module includes an at least one sensor proximate to the cooling side. The module also includes a logic circuit having a microcontroller in operable communication with the at least one sensor.
