Home > Automated climate monitoring in the warehouse: Condition monitoring with Turck and Banner
When storing sensitive products, continuous temperature and humidity control is essential to prevent product losses. However, doing this manually requires a lot of effort. A complete condition monitoring solution using Turck and Banner components saves both time and money.
Product losses caused by negative climatic influences during storage are diametrically opposed to the principle of sustainability. These days, waste is very much frowned upon. The topic of “food waste”, for example, affects not only consumers, but all parties in the upstream value chain: from mechanical engineers to food processors, logistics companies and distributors. Avoiding rejects is also essential for the chemical industry, the pharmaceutical industry and other industries for cost reasons.
The importance of climatic conditions for maintaining product quality has been clearly demonstrated in the logistics processes for Coronavirus vaccines. The significance of the continuous monitoring and documentation of climate data can therefore hardly be overestimated. However, manual monitoring is very time-consuming and prone to errors. It provides data at significantly greater intervals than automated systems. There is therefore a risk that outliers in the temperature and humidity values will not be detected.
