5 Processes Made Easier with WiFi Temperature Sensors
Wireless temperature sensors, which gather data at set intervals and transmit it via WiFi to a computer, offer numerous advantages for various processes.
Businesses can automate procedures, enhance temperature monitoring accuracy, and promptly address deviations from preset parameters by opting for these sensors.
In this article, we'll explore five processes ideally suited for wireless temperature monitoring, explain why they benefit from this transition, and recommend suitable WiFi sensors from the ETI ThermaData range. All sensors mentioned come with complimentary software and an app, free to download and zero subscription charges.
1. Cold Food Storage
Monitoring fridge and freezer temperatures ensures food safety throughout the production and distribution chain. Recording temperatures manually several times daily can be laborious and prone to errors. WiFi loggers streamline these processes for food businesses, mitigating the risk of reputation damage, financial losses, and public health concerns.
The ThermaData WiFi TD2TC, a two-channel logger compatible with thermocouple probes, is an excellent choice for monitoring multiple units simultaneously. Paired with Food Simulant probes, it provides more accurate food temperature readings than traditional sensors. Real-time email alerts and push notifications further enhance monitoring efficiency.
2. Ambient Storage (Temperature and Humidity)
To prevent damage, sensitive materials such as grains, pharmaceuticals, and museum artefacts require optimal environmental conditions. Combined temperature and humidity loggers, like the ThermaData WiFi HTD, ensure these items remain safeguarded. Setting high and low alarms for both parameters enables swift corrective actions when deviations occur.
3. Pharmaceuticals
Maintaining precise storage temperatures is critical for preserving the efficacy of medicines and vaccines. WiFi loggers, such as the ThermaData WiFi Pharm with a glycol-encased probe, facilitate compliance with regulatory requirements. Notifications are triggered only by significant temperature variations, ensuring product safety.
4. Room Temperature (Offices, Factories, and Communal Spaces)
Monitoring room temperature is essential for ensuring occupant comfort and productivity. Wireless sensors, such as the ThermaData WiFi TD with an internal ambient sensor, enable remote monitoring, which is particularly beneficial for management located off-site. Accurate readings ensure compliance with safety standards.
5. Cryogenics
Wireless sensors with switchable probes cater to specialised applications like cryogenic storage. The ThermaData WiFi TD2TC paired with a Cryo probe accurately measures ultra-low temperatures, safeguarding laboratory materials stored in cryogenic tanks.
Summary
WiFi data loggers revolutionise temperature measurement processes across various applications, including food and pharmaceutical storage, ambient monitoring, and cryogenics. With a plethora of compatible probes available, customisation options abound. Wireless data logging, facilitated by user-friendly software, offers many benefits, including simplifying daily temperature checks and streamlining processes.
