Basic Fridge Data Loggers
Data loggers are electronic devices that function as temperature recording thermometers, capturing readings at predetermined intervals. The recorded data can be easily downloaded to a computer for analysis. These devices are useful for conducting audits and for monitoring the temperature patterns of vaccine refrigerators over time. A fridge logger can be particularly valuable for assessing whether a medical vaccine refrigerator that has exceeded 8 degrees Celsius has done so for less than the critical 15 minutes that may be acceptable.
Daily minimum/maximum temperature readings will still need to be manually recorded. If you are using a data logger instead of a maximum/minimum thermometer, the data logger must have a visual max/min display so that you can record your daily max/min fridge temperatures.
The fridge loggers on this page need to be manually downloaded. Most can be connected to a PC's USB port either directly or using a USB cable or USB cradle. Intemp's loggers are downloaded using Bluetooth.
