Case Study: Tyner Pond Farm protects freezer inventory with Sonicu temperature monitoring

Tyner Pond Farm - Customer Case Study

Tyner Pond Farm, a 500-acre beef, pork, and chicken farm in Central Indiana, needed a better way to protect its meat freezer, which was a single point of failure for its entire inventory. Without remote monitoring or alarm notifications, Manager Mark Farrell sometimes had to drive to the farm in the middle of the night just to check on a hunch. Sonicu was brought in to address the risk of freezer failure from outages, human error, and performance issues.

Sonicu installed a cloud-based temperature monitoring system with a probe and transmitter connected through the farm’s Wi-Fi, giving Tyner Pond Farm 24/7 remote access by web browser and smartphone. The system automated temperature records, triggered instant alerts for excursions, and helped protect valuable inventory; the farm said it saved tens of thousands of dollars and later expanded the solution to another location.
