No lack of clarity of the term “temperatures” (Article 84 EPC). A person of ordinary skill in the art, applying a natural reading to the phrase ‘a plurality of sensors to monitor temperatures’, would understand this to mean a plurality of environmental sensors, each monitoring temperature. This conclusion is supported by the general meaning of the expression in question, as well as by para. [0011] and Fig. 2.
