Refrigeration · cold rooms & appliances

Keep an eye on cooling.
Throughout every cycle.

Record temperatures in fridges, freezers and cold rooms. Make operating cycles, defrosting phases and changes during daily use easier to understand.

Typical applications

Where data
provides insight.

Understand changes throughout operation.

01

Cold rooms

Track temperature histories at suitable positions in the cold room and identify differences.

02

Fridges and freezers

Review recurring cooling and defrost cycles over a selected period.

03

Technical operation

Use unusual changes as a reason for a targeted appliance inspection.

See beyond the display reading.

A refrigeration appliance's display does not describe every position inside it. A carefully placed sensor adds the time history at its measurement point. Comparable positions across appliances help put differences in context.

Between door openings and defrost cycles.

Air temperatures can change rapidly when doors open or defrosting takes place. These patterns form part of the context of a measurement series. Thresholds and notifications should therefore suit usage and normal appliance behaviour.

Suitable positioning is important when measuring air temperature. Cold metal surfaces and direct airflows can affect the reading. Current notifications require an online connection.

Matched to the measurement task

Sensor and cloud connectivity.

For ongoing monitoring: a temperature sensor and a Cloud Connector within reach. After interruptions, the Backfill variant adds stored readings to the history.

For air temperature measurements inside refrigeration equipment, the manufacturer recommends suitable, thermally isolated mounting with DT accessories. Mounting surface and wireless coverage are assessed for the application; a pipe mount is not the standard solution for this task.

Frequently asked questions.

What does a sensor inside a fridge show?

Depending on its position, it measures ambient or surface temperature. For air temperature, choose a measurement point that minimises the influence of the mounting surface.

Is air temperature the same as the temperature of the goods?

No. Thermal inertia often causes goods to respond more slowly than air. An air temperature history must not simply be interpreted as the core temperature of stored goods.

Are current remote alarms possible without a connection?

Without a connection, readings initially remain in local memory. Current cloud readings and notifications based on them are unavailable during this period. A continuous warning concept requires reliable online connectivity.
