Introduction to the Vaisala Cold Chain Logger
CCL100
The Vaisala Cold Chain Logger CCL100 monitors the time and temperature of
perishable products during distribution and storage. It can be plugged directly
into the USB port of a computer and will automatically generate a PDF file
containing complete time and temperature history, including a graph and
summary data. The device is flat in order to attach to flat surfaces and features
an integrated USB connection point, making it optimal for situations where
access to reading devices or download software is not practical.
The loggers use an innovative temperature sensor that enables them to take a
surface read of the object to which they are attached. This provides a closer
approximation of actual product temperature versus the general ambient
readings provided by bulkier recorders. The loggers sample temperature every
five minutes for highly accurate temperature reads and are encased in water-
resistant packaging. Further, each logger sensor is calibrated to NIST standards
during manufacturing. Because of the unique physical characteristics of the
sensor, loggers do not require ongoing calibration to maintain accuracy. All
loggers are manufactured in ISO-9001 registered facilities.
Note : Each logger is sealed in a water-resistant plastic pouch. When the
pouch is intact, the logger can be used in almost any environment,
including exposure to liquid.
CAUTION Do not compromise the integrity of the plastic pouch until ready to
download data.
