Efficient and stable operation of commercial kitchens relies on continuous insight and system optimization. Today, the remote monitoring and data analytics solutions brought by Halton’s state-of-the-art IoT platform are revolutionizing this reality. It acts as a dedicated operations expert that never leaves its post, enabling 24/7 remote monitoring of your system’s health. Through powerful data analytics, it empowers foodservice operators to achieve enhanced efficiency and cost optimization.
24/7 Monitoring & Predictive Maintenance
Halton Connect is a state-of-the-art IoT platform whose foundation is an advanced, cloud-based portal. It enables 24/7 remote monitoring of your kitchen systems, automatically keeping an eye on their operation and alerting you to any anomaly. This provides you with a detailed overview and powerful data analytics from any device.
Building on this, the platform enables predictive maintenance based on system data analytics. This approach plans visits based on real needs, optimizes replacement parts, and aims for the lowest risk of ventilation down time, thereby offering a better view on competitiveness through predictive costing.
Data-Driven Efficiency Upgrade
The value of the Halton Connect IoT platform extends beyond safety alerts, empowering kitchen operations optimization through data. The platform provides powerful automated data analytics functions, generating detailed reports on energy savings, water savings, cooking appliances usage, and so on.
Through the intuitive, cloud-based portal, managers gain a clear overview of the equipment’s operational efficiency, providing a basis for cost control.
Simultaneously, this data provides crucial information to our Halton engineers, facilitating remote diagnostics of the settings and optimization of set points. By adjusting the equipment utilisation and set points, it ensures the systems’ efficiency is maintained at design level or even improved during the entire kitchen life cycle.
Furthermore, the Halton Connect IoT platform supports the Halton technologies such as Water wash and UV Capture Ray™ technology.
Secure Data Transmission
The security of a commercial kitchen system requires protection against both equipment hazards and data breaches. The built-in 4G gateway of Halton Connect is designed to operate as a fully independent system in your building. It operates in a totally secure way as it has no connection with your network. The data traffic toward the cloud is secured by a VPN (Virtual Private Network) and with SSL encryption protocol (Secure Sockets Layer). The data collected are safe. Halton Connect also has the ability to send information to the BMS (Building Management System), enabling coordination between the kitchen system and the overall building management.
From 24/7 safety alerts to data-driven efficiency optimization, from independent data security to integration with building systems, the Halton Connect IoT platform is redefining the management model for commercial kitchens.
