ColdMark Descending Low Temperature Indicators

Temperature Indicators

TMC Thermax®

  • Ascending High Temperature
  • Single-use
  • Chemically Activated

Uses an irreversible dye change to indicate when the monitored environment reaches its specified ascending high threshold temperature.

WarmMark™

  • Ascending Temperature
  • Single-use
  • Chemically Activated

Uses an irreversible dye change to indicate when the monitored environment has reached its specified ascending threshold temperature.

ColdMark™

  • Descending Low Temperature
  • Single-use
  • Chemically Activated

Uses an irreversible dye change to indicate when the monitored environment has reached a specified descending low/cold threshold temperature.

Temperature Recorders and Loggers

PakSense XpressPDF Label

  • Wide-range
  • Single-use
  • Battery Powered

Labels are flat and feature an integrated USB connection point which can be plugged directly into the USB port of a computer. Once connected, the label automatically generates a PDF file containing complete time and temperature history, including graphs and summary data.

MadgeTech Data Loggers

  • Cryo-Temp Multi-Use
  • TransiTempII Multi-Use
  • TransiTemp-EC Single- and Multi-Use

Designed to measure payload area temperature conditions during the shipment and storage of a wide variety of cold chain medical and pharmaceutical applications, including plasma and red cell, blood banks, frozen tissue, and vaccines.

Monitor In-Transit
Temperature Chart Recorder

  • Wide-range
  • Single-use
  • Battery Powered

A tamper-resistant, simple-to-operate, highly reliable battery-powered device that measures temperatures during a 10-day run time. It generates a permanent paper strip chart data record of temperature conditions and time duration.
