TETIS R - Real-Time Tracking of Temperature of Reefer Containers

Updated: May 14, 2022

TETIS R is a plug-and-play device that is quickly put inside the reefer container at the door level, allowing you to monitor temperature and location remotely and in real-time.

Real-Time Tracking of Reefer Container for Temperature and Humidity Control

You can monitor the temperature of each reefer container and authorize your customer to access this information through mobile applications android and iOS.

DEVICE FEATURES

1. REAL-TIME CARGO CONDITION MONITORING

You can monitor the cargo's temperature in two ways through our devices:

by cellular communication,
by satellite communications (TETIS R Hybrid)
combination of 1 and 2

In this session, we'll explain temperature monitoring through the kind of transportation.

A. TERRESTRIAL TRANSPORTATION

The cargo parameters monitored in the terrestrial transportation chain are:

Cargo Temperature
GPS Location
Cargo compartment open / closed
Route deviation
Perimeter violation
Speed Limit
Key checkpoint entry and exit
Geofencing
Notifications alerts based on events programming

B. AIR TRANSPORTATION (only Kylos IoT Connect)

The cargo parameters monitored in the air transportation through Kylos IoT Connect are:

Cargo Temperature
GPS Location
Impact
Air pressure
A light sensor for indication of vaccine container open or close

C: RAILROAD TRANSPORTATION

The cargo parameters monitored at the railroad transportation are:

Cargo Temperature
GPS Location
Cargo compartment open / closed
Key checkpoint entry and exit

D: FLUVIAL TRANSPORTATION

The cargo parameters monitored in the fluvial transportation are:

Cargo Temperature
GPS Location
Cargo compartment open / closed
Key checkpoint entry and exit

D: MARITIME TRANSPORTATION

The cargo parameters monitored in the fluvial transportation are:

Cargo Temperature
GPS Location
Cargo compartment open / closed
Port arrival notification

2. REAL-TIME MONITORING OF CARGO TEMPERATURE DURING TRANSPORTATION

TETIS R is a plug & play device that enables real-time communication through 2G/3G, or 2G/4G LTE communication, While it records temperature. Through our platform, you can configure an adequate temperature range for cargo.

TETIS R will automatically send an alert to the monitoring center, web platform, or mobile application in case of temperature deviation during the route's execution with a notification about the temperature deviation and indicate the exact value of the cargo compartment temperature. In addition, an interactive icon will show you the following information: Temperature deviation, time, date, transport location, driver ID, and truck model.

3. AUTONOMOUS ENERGY

TETIS R does not require additional hardware. It is a plug-and-play device equipped with a long-lasting autonomous battery that can run for 290 days without recharging. Battery life depends on transmission periods. For example, suppose the GPS and the modem send an update every 30 minutes, notifying the transport location, the temperature of the load, the status of the load compartment (open/closed), and the battery life. In that case, it can work up to 35 days without recharging. Besides, there is a battery indicator on the platform; when the device reaches the low battery percentage level, it automatically sends an early alert for the next recharge.

4. MONITORS CARGO STATUS

TETIS R device allows you:

Following the temperature condition of your cargo in real-time
Obtain complete visibility of your shipment in real-time,
Notifies alerts in real-time based on events programming
Tracks critical checkpoints in your distribution chain
GPS location for setting perimeters areas and geo-fencing
Sends information on cargo tracking to your systems

Complete visibility of transportation chain in real-time and monitoring of cargo climatic conditions

5. PREVENTS SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITIES

Suppose a transport from your own or third-party fleet takes a deviation from the target destination. In that case, the system automatically sends an alert to the monitor center or mobile app notifying this incident. Based on this event alert, you can change this unit's parameters remotely and monitor this transport every 60 seconds or less until you resolve the incident or take action with the public security force's assistance.
