Cold rooms tend to fail when no one is watching. Using the three moments when things most often go wrong, this article shows how temperature sensing, the door and record-keeping come together in one system that raises its own alarms and keeps its own log.
Each clip shows a common pain point and how it is solved once our monitoring system is in place.
With no one on the night shift, a temperature problem or an urgent settings change means someone has to go on site, and often nobody notices until the next morning.
If the temperature stays above the limit for longer than the set time, your phone is notified and the on-site siren sounds.
Cold air leaks through the gap and the temperature creeps up slowly, so it usually goes unnoticed until the room is already too warm.
A timer starts as soon as the door opens. If it stays open past the set time, the alarm sounds before the temperature starts to rise.
When records only exist once they reach the network, every outage leaves a gap.
The device logs data in real time and keeps recording through network outages; the full log can be exported once the connection is back.
Behind all three moments is one system: the sensor and door contact send in their signals, the RIO I/O controller receives them and handles the control signals, and CGate keeps a long-term log and passes the data on to the monitoring PC and phone.
Keeps a continuous log, forwards data and provides the user interface
Yes. Just add sensors and a gateway to the existing room; there is no need to rebuild it.
Chilled rooms, freezers and cold-chain warehouses. Whether you have one room or several, the Gateway and RIO setup is planned around the number of sensing points.
Standard Modbus RTU/TCP sensors connect directly; points are set up from the sensor’s register map. Sensors with analog (current/voltage) output connect through a RIO AI module.
Built-in notifications go out by email. LINE can be set up to your requirements, including what each message contains.
Recording continues on site, and the full log can be exported once the network is back. Sites without a wired network can add the 4G option.
Sensor types, alarm conditions and notification methods (such as LINE) can all be customized to your site. Tell us about your cold room and our sales team will help you plan it.
