Hygeian Food Temperature Management System

The 5 Step Process

Here are the 5 steps in the process

1. Initial consultation which is free of charge and without obligation.
2. Sign up for a subscription to the Hygeian Management System.
3. Purchase Temperature Monitoring Hardware.
4. Implement Tasks, Checklists and Schedules.
5. Finalise the settings of the Temperature Monitoring System.

Initial Consultation

The first step is to book an online no-obligation discussion with the friendly team at Hygeian during which the system requirements will be defined. At the end of this discussion, you will have a clear understanding of the most important aspects of the system and be ready to purchase your system subscription and your hardware, which will then be shipped to site.

The following system capabilities and your requirements will be covered::

1. Defining the structure of the enterprise, the individual sites and the locations on those sites.
2. Defining who will be the administrator of your system.
3. Continuous temperature monitoring, alarming and recording of food, fridges, freezer, bain-maries, dishwashers etc.
4. Spot checking of food temperatures.
5. Waste identification and management.
6. Staff activity tasks, checklists and schedules
7. Staff training system.
8. Detailed reporting.

Your Hardware Requirements

The site has locations where temperatures are going to be measured and activities will take place.

After defining the temperature locations, the number of temperature transmitters will be known.

Normally the standard WTX-275’s will be selected for the fridges, freezers and other continuous temperature monitoring and recording. The WTX-275-EXT’s should be selected only for those locations that are heavily shielded by concrete and steel or more than 75m from the closest gateway locations.

The SPX-100 temperature probes will be selected for spot checking food temperatures. They can work to any of the gateways on site.

During the discussion, the choice of Gateway type (WiFi or 4G) will be made. WiFi gateways transfer data to the Hygeian System using your own WiFi network. Your IT people may prefer your gateways to operate independently of your WiFi system, in which case you would select the 4G version. The 4G version has a further advantage is that it will continue to transfer data to the Hygeian System for up to 9 hours in the event of a power outage.
