KoolWatch Programmable Electronic Temperature Indicators
Temperature Indicators
- Wide-range
- Single-use
- Programmable Electronic
Accurately monitors two high
and two low threshold
response temperatures (from
-20°C to +60°C), and the
duration of high and low
temperature excursions. For
refrigerated applications, the
KoolWatch is accurate within
±0.5°C.

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™ and 3M MonitorMark™
- 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™ and 3M Freeze Watch™
- 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.
