Stock temperature monitoring
Stock temperature monitoring supports the condition of stored bulk commodities through continuous tracking of temperature developments. The service helps identify self‑heating, hotspots and abnormal temperature patterns at an early stage, supporting timely intervention and helping limit damage, product loss and safety risks. Cargo owners and storage operators gain the insight needed to act before issues escalate.
Compliance through draft survey
At Peterson, we operate from an independent, accredited position in the supply chain, providing organisations with a verified basis for condition monitoring and risk management. Over ten years of continuous 24/7 stock temperature monitoring across biomass, feed, food and coal have contributed to strong operational expertise.
These accredited monitoring services translate into timely anomaly detection, reliable trend data and documented compliance that supports insurer and stakeholder requirements.
Protect stored cargo with control & insight
Early detection of hotspots & self‑heating
Continuous temperature data reveals developing hotspots and abnormal heating trends at an early stage, supporting preventive action before combustion or product degradation occurs.
Lower cost than manual measurement rounds
Installed probes replace weekly inspector visits with handheld measurements. Automated data collection reduces manual effort while delivering continuous observation instead of periodic snapshots.
Demonstrable surveillance for insurers
Insurers of warehouses storing high‑risk cargoes require evidence of active monitoring. A permanent system with logged data provides documented monitoring records and supports insurance compliance.
Safer operations in hazardous atmospheres
Commodities such as wood pellets can deplete oxygen in enclosed warehouses. Probes monitor conditions without personnel entering hazardous spaces, reducing the need for manual entry and associated safety equipment.
Optional gas measurement & monitoring
Where risk profiles require it, CO, CO₂, CH₄ and H₂ sensors can be added alongside temperature probes, extending condition monitoring beyond temperature alone.
