Data Logging for Cryo Temperature Applications
What it is and ways it is used
What is Data Logging?
• Data logging is the process of recording precise measurements over an interval of time. In this example, ultra-low temperature readings.
• A data logger is used to collect and store the information being gathered.
• Data loggers require regular calibration to ensure accuracy.
• Alerts are configured to notify users when a specific condition has been reached. For example, if a temperature level is reached, an alert is raised.
• Data logging software is used to analyze and share the collected data.
Medical Facilities
• Cryo data logging is particularly important in the research and medical industry.
• To monitor and maintain an ultra-low temperature environment , a device designed for cryo-temperatures is required.
• Hospitals and medical facilities use cryogenic freezers to store highly valued samples, vaccines, blood and other specimens.
Blood Plasma and Stem Cells
• Cord blood stem cells must be preserved in cryogenic temperatures for potential medical use.
• These stem cells have been successfully used to treat many diseases and utilized in over 25,000 transplants worldwide.
• Frozen blood plasma can only be preserved if the cryogenic temperature of the environment is kept constant. Temperature fluctuations will destroy the usability.
Vaccines
• Vaccines must be kept at extreme cold temperatures to keep the bacteria inert and only specialized systems can maintain these temperatures.
• Many vaccines are properly stored in cryogenic temperatures. An unmonitored supply of vaccines could mutate and be extremely dangerous.
Pharmaceuticals
• The pharmaceutical industry has become a huge necessity in our society.
• With so many people dependent on pharmaceuticals to maintain their health, monitoring systems are more important than ever.
• Monitoring temperatures is critical, not only in the lab, but during packaging, storage and shipping as well.
• Cryo temperatures are often required to maintain vital properties of pharmaceutical products.
Shipping Industry
• The shipping industry is one that supports many other industries.
• Data logging during transportation is crucial weather it be by road, air or sea.
• Maintaining products during transit at cryo temperatures can be challenging and requires the proper equipment.
• Cryo-temp data loggers are compact, portable and ideal for this type of application.
Frozen Foods
• Frozen foods are one of the most common applications for a cryo temperature monitoring system.
• Cryogenic freezers are used for many food processing applications.
• Using Cryo-Temp data loggers, management can be alerted the moment temperatures start to change.
Shipping Containers
• Frozen items are sometimes stored in bulk containers that are subject to the outdoor elements and changing environments.
• When cryo-temperatures need to be consistently maintained during shipping a monitoring device is essential.
• By using multiple data loggers in an example like this, you can be sure that all areas of each container are covered.
It’s Good for Business
• The bottom line , if your business or product relies upon cryo-temperature maintenance, a Cryo-Temp data logging system is a necessity.
• Any data monitoring system will need regularly calibrated devices. MadgeTech Cryo-Temp data loggers are expertly calibrated in a controlled lab.
• The final piece that makes the system complete is the ability to see, analyze and share your results. Madgetech Data Logging software has all the right tools for the job.
