Temperature Thresholds

Different types of thresholds

flowtify allows you to define 4 types of thresholds:

  • Upper action limit
  • Upper warning limit
  • Lower warning limit
  • Lower action limit

How can I use thresholds?

An example: Dairy products should ideally be stored at 2 °C to 7 °C. Short-term storage at up to +10 °C is acceptable. If 10 °C is exceeded, the risk of bacteria formation increases above average.

You can use warning & action limits to define both a lower and an upper threshold. In this case, 1 °C (lower) and 9 °C (upper) make good warning limits. Action limits could be set at 0 °C and 10 °C.

flowtify marks the warning range in yellow and the action range in red. This way you always have temperature deviations at a glance.

Setting thresholds in flowtify SENSORS

Temperature thresholds define an acceptable range for a measurement. When the value exceeds or falls below this range, the responsible persons are notified.
