Introduction
The Sensor-Online™ IoT platform delivers real-time data from local sensors and third-party services. This data helps users make informed decisions. The platform integrates wired and wireless GPS temperature monitoring sensors with the Sensor-Online IOT platform. It offers OTA reefer temperature control, maintenance scheduling, real-time and historical temperature data, refrigerated vehicle tracking, and a driver app for temperature control. Users receive real-time alerts on temperature changes and deviations, shareable ETAs with customers, IoT sensors, and many reports.
Cold-Chain Integrity
Ensure cold-chain integrity from production to retail with wireless temperature sensors. Sensor-Online’s cold room temperature monitoring system offers a fully integrated, automated solution. It provides real-time and historical temperature data, simplifying FSMA compliance. Wired and wireless GPS temperature sensors send SMS/email alerts for specific conditions, like when a freezer door is opened/closed or temperatures rise above desired levels. This ensures accurate data, preventing product loss as goods move through the cold chain.
Summary
The cold chain market is expanding due to increased consumption of cold produce. Businesses need improved traceability options, especially in food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. According to the United Nations, over 20% of fresh produce is lost in the supply chain, causing economic, social, and environmental losses. This drives interest in advanced cold chain traceability technologies.
Challenge
Maintaining the required temperature for goods like food, chemicals, or vaccines is crucial. If temperature requirements are not met, products are unsafe and must be discarded, causing financial losses. Tracking the supply chain is essential for accountability and prevention. Vaccines need careful planning due to time-bound doses and are prone to theft or fraud, making location tracking vital.
Solution
Efficient supply chain tracking uses Bluetooth sensors on pallets or boxes. Depending on the metrics, choose ID, T, or RHT sensors. Up to 200 sensors connect to Sensor-Online’s dual SIM cellular GPS router for tracking. The router collects sensor data via Bluetooth and sends it to the IoT platform using MQTT or HTTPS protocols. Equipped with GNSS capabilities, it tracks events at specific locations. Notifications alert employees to rectify issues, preventing bigger losses. GNSS allows easy tracing of goods in the warehouse or during transit.
