Warehouse Temperature Mapping
A warehouse temperature mapping exercise enables the reporting of temperature and humidity variances within storage spaces, which is crucial for businesses storing temperature-sensitive products. Factors that can influence these changes are often a result of:
- Change in weather
- Complicated warehouse layout
- Machine and equipment cooling systems
- Poor or excessive air circulation
- The volume of goods in the warehouse
With robust and routine warehouse temperature mapping procedures, a business can identify these fluctuations, leading to appropriate corrective actions to improve climate control systems' efficiency and functionality. For this reason, temperature mapping is pivotal for optimizing warehouse operations and maintaining optimal product storage conditions. For some industries, such as the pharmaceutical industry, this process is mandated for regulatory purposes to ensure stored products' ongoing efficacy and safety.
How Does Wireless Warehouse Temperature Mapping Work?
An approved protocol is an important starting point for any warehouse temperature mapping study. This protocol will outline the important details of the study, including monitoring locations, study duration, sampling rates and intended outcomes. The protocol gives you a guide for the execution of the study once the required resources are available. Once a warehouse temperature mapping study has been completed, the results are presented in a report that documents the conditions and any associated deviations.
The Benefits of SenseAnywhere For Warehouse Temperature Mapping
Due to the scale and scope of most warehouse temperature mapping projects, tens, sometimes hundreds, of data loggers might be required. The SenseAnywhere system is not only cost-effective but also scalable, with one Access Point capable of downloading data wirelessly from hundreds of data loggers. Live data is available, which is crucial in checking that your mapping exercise is progressing exactly as it should. At the end of the study, your data will be instantly available. SenseAnywhere also has the unique option of utilizing a pre-configured mapping report, saving hours of manual data analysis.
Installation of Our Warehouse Temperature and Humidity Mapping Technology
SenseAnywhere loggers are lightweight and robust; they can be easily and quickly distributed across the available space as per the requirements outlined in your mapping protocol. They do not require pre-configuration, saving you many hours at the start of your temperature mapping study. Another helpful feature of the SenseAnywhere system is as simple as the colour of the logger, bright orange sensors stand out from most products, making retrieval at the end of your study easy.
Go Wireless and Automated for Warehouse Temperature Mapping
Our wireless sensors are virtually essential when conducting temperature mapping on a large space. It wouldn't be feasible to attempt this with a wired system. With real-time data transmission to our cloud-based platform, users gain global access to the collected information, offering huge operational efficiencies when you can complete your mapping study from any location.
In addition, automatic data logging ensures accuracy and integrity, making it ideal for auditing purposes in regulated industries. Often, cheap, single-use data loggers will be used for temperature mapping activities. This can be costly and very wasteful.
