We are now well into the festive season and more than ever masses of fresh produce and products are being shipped via one mode of transport or another so that we will all be able to enjoy the family meal on the big day and provide products for sale in outlets.
One of the great challenges that producers and retailers face is to ensure that the fresh produce arrives fresh at the point of sale and remains fresh until it is placed on the shelves. This obviously requires refrigeration being provided both in transport and on the ground at the point of departure, during transit and at the point of arrival. Products and pharmaceuticals require stability in their shelf life, thus maintaining the correct temperatures in their transit and handling is also essential.
The intricacy of maintaining the exact temperature of large-refrigerated or freezer units for a range of products and produce in the past has been challenging. Due to the advances in technology and the cold chain monitoring industry the solution can now be found in ingenious products supplied by professional Cold Chain Monitoring and Managing experts such as Cold Watch Real-Time Monitoring.
Measure Multiple Sensors in Multiple Locations
The Cold Watch digital real-time monitoring unit (or logger as it is also referred to) is a marvel of science and technology and is capable of efficiently maintaining the exact required temperatures of a freezer.
It allows for multiple sensors (typically up to eight) across multiple locations. For example, you might have 20 refrigerated units each with five sensors that measure the door, first quarter, the centre of the unit, at the back and the main aircon/refrigeration motor. With a GPS receiver and a GSM modem, it is a multi-functional unit operating both in transit and on the ground and this is essential to maintain the cold chain throughout the producer-to-seller cycle.
It Does Not End There
