Smart Converter Shell Temperature Monitoring and Alert System

Problem Overview

Converter shell temperature is currently measured periodically using a handheld temperature gun and recorded manually. This is time-consuming, prone to missed entries and does not provide continuous trends. The challenge is to automatically measure, record and monitor shell temperature in real time, provide digital traceability and alert users to abnormal conditions.
