OPERATING PRINCIPLES
This chapter describes principles and scenarios for the product.
Logger Placement Scenarios
The small size and flatness of the Vaisala Logger enable
it to be used in a variety of scenarios including at the
pallet, carton and product level.
Pallet Level -
Many customers apply Vaisala Loggers to
the side of a pallet. Vaisala provides a ‘Findit’ sign and a
clear plastic pouch to facilitate locating loggers on
pallets at the receiving end as depicted in photo 1.
Many customers place several Vaisala Loggers on
different pallets within a load to perform temperature
mapping. This promotes broader sampling and provides more detailed
information on the temperature fluctuations experienced within a container.
Carton Level -
Many customers with high-value product where temperature
specifications are critical may choose to use Vaisala Loggers on each individual
carton inside a master case.
Product Level -
Loggers are sealed in a plastic pouch and take surface readings
of the object to which they are attached. They can be placed in or laid directly
on top of product for highly accurate temperature readings.
In order to facilitate finding Vaisala temperature monitoring loggers, it is
recommended that placement of loggers be clearly flagged on the outside of
packaging. Vaisala provides customers with “Find It” signs upon request:
