The application in practice
Reducing cable setup during thermal treatment
A closer look at the challenge, the monitoring approach and the outcome described in Monnit’s application guide.
The challenge
A pest-control company wanted to replace cumbersome runs of wired probes with a quicker way to monitor treatment temperatures. Technicians also needed records of each job.
The monitoring setup
Wireless temperature probes were combined with heater-current or vibration monitoring and door status. A gateway sent readings to iMonnit so technicians could review conditions from outside the treated area.
The reported outcome
The case reports faster setup and exportable records after comparison with the existing wired system. Treatment temperatures, exposure times and acceptance criteria remain the responsibility of the qualified treatment provider; a sensor reading alone does not establish success.
Case-study information and photography: Monnit. Reported results relate to the installation described; your project’s design and results will depend on its requirements.
A practical starting point
Medida, entender, actuar.
Where to start
Place suitably rated probes at the treatment team's designated verification points, including hard-to-heat locations. Keep radio housings within their environmental ratings.
A change worth investigating
A monitored location fails to reach the treatment plan's target or drops during the hold period.
Example scenario. Set limits and timing for your own site.Turn the alert into action
Check heater operation and probe placement, then adjust the treatment under the qualified technician's procedure.

Measurements to consider
Use these as a shortlist. The right model depends on the range, environment, installation and accuracy you need.

Before you start
What matters for this application
Temperature monitoring alone does not certify eradication. Targets, hold times, fire precautions and re-entry decisions belong to the approved treatment plan.
How do the sensors connect?
ALTA sensors need a compatible gateway, internet connection and monitoring software. Suitable Wi-Fi models connect through a compatible Wi-Fi network. Confirm radio frequency, coverage and power arrangements at the actual installation points before choosing equipment.
Explorar las puertas de enlace →How quickly will an alert arrive?
Timing depends on sensor settings, reporting intervals, connectivity and notification rules. Email, SMS and voice options vary by service and plan. Test a controlled event, check that the nominated person receives it and confirm what happens if a device stops reporting.
Understand software and alerts →What should we prepare for a pilot?
Bring a site plan, the equipment or spaces to monitor, expected conditions, required accuracy and the names of the people who respond. Agree a trial period and a review date. Compare sensor readings with an appropriate reference and document any gaps in coverage or response.
