Why monitoring food temperature is important?
Food safety is a global issue. Contaminated food can cause various diseases, so food handling and storage are strictly controlled and monitored.
The World Health Organization takes important safety measures for the safe handling of food, and one of them is storage at appropriate temperatures. To address this challenge, Alfakom provides the ability to monitor and record temperature in real time.
Food Temperature Recording Legislation
According to the legislation on temperature recording for healthcare products, it is mandatory for all healthcare establishments to check and record the temperature daily in the corresponding temperature logbooks, as it is subject to inspection by the Health Inspectorate Services.
The temperature logbook is one of the mandatory records that every business is required to maintain, and it contains tables with the temperatures of refrigerators, freezers, and temperature-controlled chambers.
Use of sensors for recording the temperature of refrigerators
A solution for the efficient recording of refrigerator temperatures in retail stores is the use of remote measurement sensors. This helps avoid food spoilage and saves time during power outages, reduces the time spent on manual temperature logging for compliance with public health regulations, predicts operational issues in refrigerators through remote monitoring, and ensures the integrity of the cold chain.
Alfakom temperature sensors are ideal for meeting the need to monitor food storage temperatures, as they provide a wide measurement range and transmit data in real time.
How does temperature monitoring for food actually work?
From a technical point of view, the temperature monitoring solution is based on a set of wireless temperature sensors installed in retail store refrigerators. 100% autonomous, these sensors will measure and record temperatures at regular intervals (recording time, limits and calibration).
Equipped with Bluetooth Low Energy technology integrated in these sensors, the temperature history can be obtained very easily using a Bluetooth receiver (industrial gateway).
In case the limit is exceeded, a notification can be sent to the smartphone and/or computer of the person responsible for monitoring.
