Wireless temperature monitoring in the pharmaceutical sector
Wireless temperature monitoring in the pharmaceutical sector
The pharmaceutical industry has storage needs which are often quite similar to those in the healthcare sector. It is not unusual to have to keep products within specific temperature ranges. A temperature sensor can help ensure that a pharmaceutical product is maintained properly, but traditional paper-based working methods were time-consuming.
At Kelsius, we have developed effective and reliable wireless temperature monitoring that has proven to be a great asset to pharmaceutical firms. Removing the need for paper records can save a lot of time and thus reduce wage costs. At a time when budgets are often restricted, these cost savings can in some cases make a substantive difference to the bottom line. In addition, the nature of the innovative system means that it can work with equal efficacy whether or not the pharmaceutical items are being held in a stationary container.
A wireless temperature monitoring system has to take into account the specific requirements of the industry concerned. In the case of the pharmaceutical sector, it is often crucial to connect measurements obtained at a diversity of locations with a specialist software processor. This kind of set up takes some time to get right but it is normally the best way of keeping alert to potential variations in humidity or temperature. Any excessive fluctuations in variables like these could swiftly make a pharmaceutical product deteriorate and could thus render it unfit for purpose. If the problem was widespread, the wastage could be very expensive.
In order that data can be collected easily and (if necessary) acted on quickly, it is obviously important that such a system provides the necessary information in a format which is easy to comprehend. There would be little point in delivering vital information with alacrity if it arrived in too complex a form to make the right decisions on before it was too late.
