Some time ago I had found the lm_sensors project. There were some instructions for many hardware. Sorry to say, but right now the web-site http://lm-sensors.org/ have no more content about this.
However the lm-sensors was included in many Linux distributions (at least on CentOS, RHEL 6.x and similar), so it was possible to:
install
yum install lm_sensors
run to detect devices
sensors-detect
and if OK (it has drivers for your hardware) then can get the output:
