TempTrak™ MX Series Data Loggers Advance Healthcare Monitoring
Multi-function devices help users save money and reduce healthcare environmental temperature monitoring complexity
ST. LOUIS (Dec. 18, 2024) – Copeland, a global leader in sustainable climate solutions, today announced the launch of the next generation of temperature monitoring products: TempTrak MX series data loggers, part of the TempTrak Enterprise environmental monitoring system for healthcare applications. These high-speed wireless devices are capable of collecting, storing and transmitting data wirelessly via Wi-Fi or 900MHz frequencies.
Lifesaving medications and vaccines must be stored within proper temperature and humidity ranges in order to maintain their effectiveness, increase patient safety and prevent spoilage that could cost millions. Many environments within hospitals — including refrigerators, freezers, labs, medicine storage facilities and pharmacies, operating rooms, and blood banks — require similar conditions. As the worldwide temperature-controlled pharmaceutical market continues to expand, Copeland is providing integrated temperature tracking and monitoring solutions that provide precise temperature control along the supply chain. The innovative TempTrak Enterprise wireless environmental monitoring system is designed to take readings at regular intervals and gauge appropriate temperatures based on predetermined thresholds so the room’s environment does not fall outside safe conditions.
The new data loggers are ideal for temperature-controlled environments in hospitals. In addition to their onboard temperature and humidity sensors, they are designed to accommodate one or two detachable temperature probes, depending on the model. The data loggers send information to the TempTrak application on a user’s cellphone. Each data logger monitors preset environmental conditions that are defined by the user; they can provide audio and visual alerts to enable staff to take immediate corrective actions when conditions fall outside of safe parameters, helping to mitigate high-cost temperature events. Additional real-time alerts can be provided through a variety of methods such as SMS (text) and email notifications. Information recorded to the TempTrak database is time-stamped, reducing the potential for human error. Further, the data loggers have an integrated, high-contrast display that helps ensure compliance with Vaccines for Children (VFC) guidelines, a program that provides vaccines to children across the U.S. whose parents or guardians may not be able to afford them.
“TempTrak MX Series data loggers are essential tools that help hospitals and clinics accurately monitor temperature sensitive assets,” said Amy Childress, vice president, monitoring, cold chain, at Copeland. “This 24/7 monitoring solution provides consistent reporting and documentation that can help staff better protect patients and improve efficiencies facility-wide.”
Versatile, multi-function TempTrak MX Series data loggers feature:
- 900 MHz RF or Wi-Fi capabilities.
- Secure configuration cloning, enabling faster deployment and operational efficiency.
- An intuitive on-screen interface, helping to streamline the setup process.
- Common battery size and increased battery capacity for simple and less frequent battery replacements.
- Storage for 64,000 readings for peace of mind and regulatory compliance.
- Higher security protocols to protect real-time data traffic.
