Display assemblies with differential pressure sensors

A method for detecting and alerting to probable leaks in an electronic display assembly, the method comprising:

• monitoring, by way of a controller, differential pressure readings for the electronic display assembly based on data received from a differential pressure sensor, where said electronic display assembly comprises an electronic display, the differential pressure sensor in fluid connection with an ambient environment and an internal area partitioned from the ambient environment, and one or more fans located within, or fluidly connected with, the internal area which, when operated, move gas within the internal area;
• following a determination, at the controller, that certain of said differential pressure readings are outside an acceptable parameter:
• commanding, by way of the controller, a speed of the one or more fans to be temporarily increased;
• taking, by way of the controller, additional differential pressure readings for the electronic display assembly based on additional data received from the differential pressure sensor with and/or following commanding the speed of the one or more fans to be temporarily increased;
• following a determination, at the controller, that certain of said additional differential pressure readings remain outside the acceptable parameter, generating and transmitting, by way of the controller, an electronic notification regarding the probable leak.

An electronic display assembly for detecting and alerting to probable leaks, the electronic display assembly comprising:

• an electronic display;
• an internal area normally sealed from an ambient environment in an at least dust-tight fashion;
• a differential pressure sensor in fluid connection with the ambient environment and the internal area;
• one or more fans located within, or fluidly connected with, the internal area which, when operated, moves gas within the internal area;
• a controller comprising one or more non-transitory electronic storage devices comprising software instructions, which when executed, configured one or more processors of the controller to:
• monitor differential pressure readings based on data received from the differential pressure sensor, and where one or more of said differential pressure readings are outside an acceptable parameter:
• command a speed of the one or more fans to be temporarily increased;
• monitor additional differential pressure readings based on additional data received from the differential pressure sensor with or after commanding the speed of the one or more fans to be temporarily increased, and where at least some of said additional differential pressure readings remain outside the acceptable parameter:
• generate and transmit an electronic notification to at least one remote device regarding the probable leak.
