In a supermarket, ensuring the correct refrigeration of perishable goods is vital to prevent significant damage from power outages or equipment malfunctions. Regulatory requirements mandate the continuous monitoring of food core temperatures to maintain food safety standards. To comply with these regulations, refrigeration units are equipped with IoT sensors that continuously monitor both temperature and humidity levels.
These sensors automatically transmit data in real time, alerting the relevant department or individual if deviations from normal values occur. This enables prompt response and corrective actions to be taken, ensuring the integrity of the cold chain.
By automating the temperature monitoring process, IoT technology not only ensures regulatory compliance but also significantly reduces labor costs by eliminating the need for manual checks. This leads to more efficient operations and decreased personnel expenses through automation.
