The temperature sensors WTS-10, WTS-11, and WTS-12 are designed for wireless temperature monitoring in commercial kitchens, storage areas, or during transport. They operate using the LoRaWAN communication protocol and transmit measured values to a connected gateway.
Description and Functionality
- WTS-10: Internal sensor for ambient temperature
- WTS-11: Internal and external probe for manual food temperature measurement
(Only the temperature of the external probe is transmitted to ConnectedCooking) - WTS-12: Includes light detection for door monitoring
All devices include:
- Button for mode control (activation/deactivation)
- Multi-color LED indicator
- LoRaWAN data transmission (uplink every 20 minutes)
- Power supply via fixed lithium-ion battery (lifetime up to 10 years)
Setup Steps
- Unpacking and Visual Inspection
- Unpack the device, check completeness and condition.
- Register Device in ConnectedCooking
- Read the serial number and enter it under Hygiene Management > Sensors > "+ Add".
- Placing the Device
- Clean the mounting spot (defrost freezers first).
- Attach adhesive pad to mount, remove foil.
- Place mount and insert the device.
- Activation
- Press button >3 seconds until LED blinks green 5×.
- Device connects and begins data transmission.
- Optional Use of WTS-11
- Remove cap, insert probe into food.
- Temperature is recorded and transmitted.
Placement cold storage
- Highest level at which food is stored.
- Place the sensor below the intake area.
- The sensor can be installed near the existing thermometer, which is usually also located in the intake area.
Placement display ase
- The sensors should be placed on the same level as the critical product in the display case.
- In a display case, there can be large temperature differences on each level.
- We recommend placing the sensors at the high-temperature location or near the critical product.
Data Analysis
- View temperature data, statistics, and signal strength in ConnectedCooking.
- Option to export data for manual analysis.
Important Notes
- Use only alkaline cleaning agents.
- Deactivate the device for transport or storage. (Press the button 5× until red LED lights up continuously)
- Dispose via appropriate collection points, do not remove battery.
- Sensors only work when they are within range of a LoRaWAN gateway, which can transmit the data to ConnectedCooking.
