Legionella Monitoring for Food & Drink Manufacturing

Process and welfare water,
monitored continuously.
Across the whole site.

Wireless temperature sensors at tanks, loops, sentinel taps, welfare outlets, and cooling systems, checking thresholds against HSE L8 and HSG274 automatically, around the clock.

Large sites outpace manual roundsSprawling production sites carry extensive pipework across process, welfare, and plant areas. A manual round cannot cover it at the frequency L8 expects, and the gaps sit in your record.
Welfare facilities serve a large workforceCanteens, changing rooms, and washrooms used by a large shift workforce carry water-safety risk that competes with production for maintenance attention.
Cooling systems add another risk layerEvaporative cooling and process cooling assets fall within HSG274 and demand close, documented attention that a periodic manual round cannot reliably provide.
Audit pressure is relentlessBRC, customer, and HSE audits expect a complete water-safety record on demand. Compiling temperature history from scattered logs across a large site takes days.
The AQUAIOT Solution

Continuous visibility.
Site-wide records.
Audit-ready evidence.

AQUAIOT replaces labour-intensive manual rounds with continuous automated monitoring across process, welfare, and plant areas, so your L8 record stays current and is always ready for a BRC, customer, or HSE audit.

Real-time temperature profiling at tanks, loops, sentinel outlets, welfare outlets, and cooling systems, continuous rather than periodic.
Threshold alerts against HSE L8 and HSG274, immediate SMS, email, and app notification when temperatures drift into risk zones or a flush is missed.
Tamper-evident, exportable audit trails, SCADA, BMS, and CAFM integration for instant evidence across the site.

How It Works

Three steps to continuous L8 compliance

Step 01

Monitor

AQUAIOT sensors are deployed at tanks, loops, calorifiers, and sentinel outlets. Temperature is profiled continuously, every reading timestamped and logged to the cloud over secure cellular or LoRaWAN telemetry.

Step 02

Alert

When temperatures drift outside HSE L8 thresholds, or when a scheduled flush is missed, AQUAIOT triggers an immediate alert via SMS, email, or app, with role-based escalation rules for your estates team.

Step 03

Record

Every reading, alert, and action is captured in tamper-evident audit logs. Records are exportable on demand and integrate with CAFM, BMS, and AIMS systems, so audit preparation is minutes, not days.

Capabilities

Everything your L8 programme needs

Purpose-built for estates, facilities, and compliance teams managing water systems across single or multiple sites.

Real-time temperature profiling

Continuous monitoring at tanks, calorifiers, loops, and sentinel outlets. Every reading timestamped and stored, never a gap in your record.

HSE L8 threshold alerting

Thresholds checked against HSE L8 and ACoP guidance. Alerts fired immediately when cold water exceeds 20C or hot water falls below 50C at point of use.

Missed-flush detection

AQUAIOT detects when scheduled flushing routines are not completed and generates an automatic alert, so no event is undocumented.

Tamper-evident audit trails

Every reading and action is logged with a secure, unalterable timestamp. Exportable records ready for audit, inspection, or HSE enquiry at any time.

API / BMS / CAFM integration

Open and interoperable. AQUAIOT connects to your existing SCADA, AIMS, CAFM, and BMS platforms via RS485/Modbus or REST API, no lock-in.

Retrofit-friendly deployment

Non-invasive sensors designed for live environments. No pipe cutting, no shutdown. AQUAIOT engineers handle site survey, installation, and commissioning.

Who It’s For

Built for every part of the manufacturing site

Food Processors

Process and welfare, fully covered.

Food processing sites combine process water, washdown systems, and large welfare facilities under constant audit pressure. Manual monitoring across the whole footprint is slow and leaves gaps in the record.

  • Continuous monitoring across process, welfare, and plant from one dashboard
  • Real-time profiling at sentinel outlets, loops, and welfare areas
  • Threshold alerts checked against HSE L8 and HSG274 guidance
  • SCADA and CAFM integration for engineering and quality teams
Beverage Producers

Water-intensive sites, watched closely.

Beverage production runs water-intensive operations alongside extensive welfare and plant systems, where temperature drift carries both safety and operational consequences. Continuous monitoring gives a precise, documented record.

  • Dense profiling across welfare, plant, and associated outlets
  • Immediate alerts when temperatures drift outside guidance
  • Tamper-evident records for quality, safety, and audit teams
  • Retrofit-friendly install with no shutdown of production
Cold Storage & Logistics

Welfare safety on dispersed sites.

Cold storage and logistics sites run large welfare facilities for shift workforces across dispersed buildings, where little-used outlets and quiet areas create stagnation risk that manual rounds miss.

  • Continuous profiling across welfare and washroom outlets
  • Automatic alerts when low-use outlets develop risk conditions
  • Cellular and LoRaWAN telemetry across dispersed buildings
  • Exportable evidence for each site on demand
Site Engineering

Less time on rounds, more on uptime.

Site engineering teams carry L8 and HSG274 obligations alongside keeping production running. Automation frees skilled people from clipboard rounds and gives a defensible, always-current record across the whole site.

  • Replace labour-intensive manual rounds with automated monitoring
  • Reduce reactive call-outs by detecting drift before it escalates
  • Tamper-evident records for BRC, customer, and HSE audits
  • Open RS485/Modbus and REST API integration with site systems
Open, interoperable systems. No lock-in. Engineered for operational environments.

Questions & Answers

Legionella monitoring for food and drink manufacturing, answered

How does automated monitoring support HSE L8 and HSG274 on a manufacturing site?
AQUAIOT records temperatures continuously at tanks, loops, sentinel outlets, welfare outlets, and cooling systems and checks them against HSE L8 and HSG274 Part 2 guidance. It strengthens the duty holder’s written scheme of control with a complete, tamper-evident record, while responsibility for the overall control scheme remains with the operator.
Can it cover welfare facilities and process areas together?
Yes. Coverage spans welfare outlets such as canteens, changing rooms, and washrooms alongside process and plant systems, all profiled continuously and visible from a single site-wide dashboard.
Does it help with cooling systems under HSG274?
AQUAIOT provides continuous temperature monitoring at cooling system assets and associated outlets that supports L8 and HSG274 duties, sitting within the wider control scheme the operator manages for those systems.
How does it support BRC and customer audits?
Every reading and alert is held in tamper-evident logs with secure timestamps and is exportable on demand, so producing a complete water-safety record for a BRC, customer, or HSE audit takes minutes rather than days of compiling scattered logs.
Can sensors be fitted without stopping production?
Yes. AQUAIOT sensors are designed for retrofit in live environments, with no pipe cutting and no shutdown required. Our engineers handle the site survey, installation, and commissioning around production schedules.
Does it integrate with our SCADA and CAFM systems?
Yes. AQUAIOT is open and interoperable, connecting to SCADA, BMS, CAFM, and analytics platforms over RS485/Modbus or REST API, with no vendor lock-in.
