Applications
Temperature loggers are perfect for any situation where monitoring temperature is critical. Common areas of use include monitoring the transport and storage of temperature-sensitive products such as food, vaccines, medicine, chemicals and pathology samples. They can also monitor processes such as freezing, washing, sterilising, and incubating.
A temperature logger can tell you:
- When excessive temperatures were reached
- For how long that temperature was maintained
- How often excessive temperatures were reached
- Average temperature and temperature cycles

eTemperature is the software that enables you to make the most out of your Thermochron Temperature Logger. Here are two common scenarios eTemperature has been used for.

Food Storage and Transportation
According to the Australian & New Zealand Food Standards Code, if you are receiving, storing, processing (including defrosting and preparing), cooling, reheating, displaying, or transporting potentially hazardous foods, then you must be able to prove that you have not exposed the food to the critical “Danger Zone” temperature range for too long.
Temperature is used by those in the food and transportation industries to ensure that these potentially hazardous foods haven’t been exposed to the danger zone range of 5°C to 60°C for any lengthy period. This ensures compliance with the appropriate standards and codes.

Vaccine Fridges
Temperature logging with eTemperature confirms that the cold chain has been maintained and provides accurate knowledge of the vaccine refrigerator temperature. This is critical, as vaccines need to be stored in the range of 2°C to 8°C (the ‘safe zone’) to ensure they remain effective when administered to patients.
eTemperature and Thermochrons have been widely used in Australia and New Zealand, including by the Pharmacy Guild of Australia to audit their members’ vaccine fridges. Additionally, eTemperature and Thermochrons were installed in the majority of GPs when the New Zealand government supplied all GPs with a vaccine fridge.
