Condition Monitoring in Storage Rooms

The M12-MFTH temperature and humidity sensor, wireless technology, and the TAS Cloud work together to efficiently monitor humidity and temperature.

Challenge

In food warehouses, temperature and humidity must be constantly monitored and documented. Manual monitoring is time-consuming, especially in large storage rooms with many measuring points. Automated solutions must be precise, secure, and easy to integrate without requiring access to company networks.

Your Benefits

Increased reliability through seamless trend recording
Maximum security through certificate-encrypted MQTT communication
Quick installation thanks to a completely wireless condition monitoring solution
Simplified documentation through the output of data reports as XLSX or CSV files

The strengths of the automated wireless system can be clearly seen in expansive plants
The DX transmits via a proprietary 2.4-GHz protocol with a range of up to 3.2 kilometers
The TCG20 gateway encrypts the data and sends it via Wi-Fi or UMTS to the Turck Cloud
The dashboards can be individually compiled from any number of data records

Solution

TURCK's condition monitoring solution provides wireless monitoring of the storage room. The M12-MFTH temperature and humidity sensor transmits measurement data via a battery-powered DX80 radio node to a DX80 gateway in the control cabinet. From there, the data is forwarded via Modbus RTU to a TX800M Edge gateway, which transmits it to TURCK's TAS Cloud service via WLAN or LTE mobile communications.

Thanks to the mobile connection, access to the company network is not required, which avoids security barriers. Data transmission is certificate-encrypted via MQTT. All access to TAS Cloud is based on a comprehensive role and rights concept.

The cockpit in TAS Cloud displays all relevant sensor data on easily configurable dashboards and can be adapted to the requirements of the application and system without any programming knowledge. Alarms via email or SMS can be configured just as easily as long-term trend analyses or reports as CSV or XLSX files. This solution minimizes personnel costs while increasing the security and quality of monitoring.
