//Temperature Monitoring of Cooler Box

Maintenance of temperature inside a cooler box is a very important factor for the working of the device. Vacker UAE has been providing different types of Temperature Data Loggers for their clients and temperature data logger for monitoring the temperature in cooler boxes is one of them. Vacker UAE provides their services in different regions of UAE especially in the cities such as Abu Dhabi, Ajman, Dubai, Fujairah, Sharjah, Umm al-Quwain, etc.

The cooler box in medical fields is generally used to store and transport different types of vaccines and medicines. Vaccines are very sensitive to temperature and slight change in them can degrade the quality and effectiveness of the vaccines. The World Health Organization(WHO) has described certain parameters of temperature for the storage and transportation of vaccines. According to the parameters, the safe temperature for vaccines to be stored and transported should range from 2 degree Celsius to 8 degree Celsius.

If the temperature is higher than the recommended temperature, then the potency of the vaccines decline very fast. Whereas, if the temperature is lower than the recommendation, reactogenicity of the vaccines increases and potency of the vaccine decreases. Hence, it is very important to monitor the temperature of the cooler box constantly.

Why use Temperature Data Logger by Vacker UAE for Temperature Monitoring of Cooler Box?

Lack of monitoring of temperature of the cooler accurately can mislead a health professional and its recipients about the effectiveness of the vaccine. The faults in the cooler box may also remain undetected if the temperature is not monitored properly.

The WHO recommends monitoring the cooler box of vaccines continually and keeping a record at least once a day. If the monitoring of the temperature is done manually then there is a higher chance of error hence, it is better to use the temperature data loggers of our company especially designed to monitor the temperature of the cooler box. The data loggers of Vacker UAE are very easy to use and the measurement can easily be recorded and stored in a computer. The user can easily set the desired minimum and maximum temperature for the cooler box. The data loggers can be used in cooler boxes as well as vaccine fridges, medical freezers, etc.

Tips for proper monitoring of temperature in a cooler box

  • The building of ice in the cooler should be avoided as the ice build-up affects the potency of the vaccine.
  • The temperature is most stable in the middle of the cooler box hence, it is best to keep the vaccines alongside the middle of the cooler.
  • The cooler box should always be used from a reliable medical company.
  • The data loggers' power supply should be checked on a regular basis.
