Cold chain and pharma
A temperature record for every load, and an alert before it spoils.
Who buys it: food and pharma distributors, reefer fleets and cold chain logistics providers.
A load is only checked at delivery. If the reefer failed on the highway, the cargo is already lost and nobody can show when it happened.
What your customer watches
Four readings that tell the whole story
- Cargo temperature
- One or more temperature sensors per compartment, charted over the whole trip.
- Door openings
- A digital input shows when and where the doors were opened.
- Location
- Where the load is right now, and the route it took.
- Reefer power
- External voltage shows if the reefer unit lost power.

Questions
Cold chain and pharma: common questions
How quickly am I alerted about a temperature excursion?
The Temperature out of range rule fires when a sensor stays outside its range for one minute, and escalation steps notify the next person if nobody acknowledges it.
Can I give the client a temperature record?
Yes. Reports show the temperature for each trip and can be exported to Excel, PDF or CSV, or scheduled to arrive automatically.
Does it work with several compartments?
Yes. Each sensor is set up separately, so multi-compartment reefers report and alert per compartment.
