Refrigeration Unit Monitoring is a comprehensive collection, processing, and transmission of information on the status of transport, transported, and stored cargo, aimed at predicting failures and protecting perishable goods. The system allows for monitoring unit operating parameters, recording violations of transport regulations, and promptly responding to emergency situations, as well as determining the current location and route of the unit (long-term parking, deviations, etc.). Integrated System Components:

• Data Collection System

Data collection from controllers, temperature and status sensors, and multiple refrigeration unit operating parameters, data transmission to software and the local control station – Operator Panel.

• Integration with existing refrigeration unit monitoring systems. li>

Removes the need for duplicate equipment at the facility, utilizing existing sensors and controllers. Expands the list of monitored parameters: actual cargo temperature, set temperature, unit operating modes (engine speed, battery charge level, etc.), self-diagnostic results, and much more. This is an important factor in preventing refrigeration unit equipment failure.

• Additional Equipment

Collects information from existing sensors that are not recorded in the existing system. Additionally, it is possible to install the required number of sensors for maximum unit monitoring.

• Alert System.

In the event of an emergency, the crew is notified online at the facility and in the software via an audible signal, the event is recorded in the software, and notifications are sent in reports and via messenger. This functionality allows you to track the exact start and stop times of refrigeration unit components, the operating mode, the opening/closing times of mechanisms, and deviations from the route. This functionality allows you to assess the impact of these events on the operation of the refrigeration unit when an abnormal situation or equipment malfunction occurs. Implementing a refrigeration unit monitoring system opens up a number of opportunities:

• Temperature and humidity monitoring.

The goal is to monitor the temperature and humidity of the transported cargo, as well as the required temperature and humidity conditions for transportation.

• Monitoring unit operating parameters.

Deviation of certain parameters from the acceptable range does not directly affect the safety of the cargo, but indicates the development of processes that could lead to a serious failure in the future. For example, monitoring the exact time the unit is turned on and off, the operating mode, the door opening and closing times, and ensuring that the temperature conditions are consistent with the type of cargo.

• Rapid response to failures.

The monitoring system alerts the operator of equipment abnormalities and notifies responsible parties: the dispatcher, crew, and other responsible personnel.

• Visualization of operating modes.

Real-time data transfer to the operator panel for the crew (responsible parties), and to the software for the analyst and customer. Performance analysis using graphs.

• Reporting.

Report generation according to internal regulations and regulatory authorities. Automatic data aggregation using software. Viewing data for specific time periods. Data storage for up to 3 years (negotiated individually). The implementation of a monitoring system makes it possible to take necessary measures at the first sign of refrigeration equipment failure. This ensures that, in most cases, violations of the transportation regime that threaten cargo safety will not be recorded to identify the culprit, but rather identified through prompt intervention to correct the malfunction. Failure prediction is based on the analysis of multiple factors, including component wear indicators, refrigeration system load, and operating conditions. This is crucial for a transport company, both in terms of reducing material costs, improving business efficiency, and maintaining a reputation as a reliable carrier. Refrigeration Unit Monitoring: Complete Cargo Temperature Control and Failure Prediction Refrigeration unit monitoring is the comprehensive collection, processing, and transmission of information on the condition of transport, transported, and stored cargo. The main goal of the system is to predict equipment failures and reliably protect perishable goods. This modern solution not only monitors the unit’s operating parameters and records violations of the transport regime, but also quickly responds to emergency situations and tracks the location of the facility (long-term parking, deviations from the route).
