In the freight industry, it is common for operations to include the handling of temperature-sensitive products. Temperature-sensitive products include items such as perishable foods, drugs, and pharmaceuticals. During the logistics and shipping operations, these products have to be monitored for regulation purposes. Exposure to temperatures that fall or rise outside the acceptable range for these products can degrade them and shorten their shelf life. In addition to regulations, some shipping company contracts also make temperature monitoring mandatory for specific products.
What are Temperature Data Loggers?
The temperature logger’s purpose is to record temperature values ranging from a few hours to several months. Temperature loggers monitor temperature conditions, while some models measure humidity as well. Furthermore, these devices are often small enough for placement in insulated containers or attached to a product during transportation in a refrigerated container or truck. That helps in better monitoring and ensures that the products during transit are in a safe environment. The loggers today are battery-powered, automated electronic devices.
