More About This Item
Easily and accurately monitor temperature in refrigerators, freezers, and other controlled environments. The high‑accuracy alarm can be programmed in 0.1° increments. Once triggered, visual and audible alarms alert continuously until reset. The thermometer records and displays the exact time and date when alarms occur, as well as when minimum and maximum temperatures were reached.
The included vaccine bottle probe features a microcable that allows refrigerator or freezer doors to close on it without damage. The glycol‑filled bottle buffers the sensor from rapid temperature fluctuations, providing readings that mimic actual vaccine vial conditions. The bottle’s shape is designed to fit standard vaccine trays for proper placement.
