No, it’s not a battery. It’s a Thermochron temperature logger.
Thermochrons measure temperature (and sometimes humidity) and record the readings in memory.
You place the Thermochron where you want to measure temperatures – a refrigerator, a greenhouse, a shipping container, a bain marie, etc. The Thermochron will record temperatures to its internal memory. You can download the readings to see a record of conditions experienced by the logger.
Thermochrons are tiny – about the size of two $2 coins. They are made from stainless steel and they are very resistant to weather. Their small size and toughness makes them ideal for a wide range of temperature logging situations.
Thermochrons have a built-in battery that can last up to ten years.
Thermochrons are so versatile, they can be used in many environments and industries.
The Thermochron TC has a budget price-tag that makes it ideal for situations requiring multiple loggers: large-area environmental research, shipping, aircon load balancing, etc. But it is still a more than valid choice for single-use applications such as fridges and freezers.
The Thermochron TCS is our most popular model. With a temperature range covering environments from freezers to bain-maries and everything in between, it is a truly versatile device.
No need for a probe. Now you can log temperatures directly inside your incubator, dishwasher, or other high temperature environment.
Humidity can be a critical factor in many environments – from manufacturing to warehousing. This logger measures humidity as well as temperature to give a true picture of the environment.
This is our second unit that breaks the 100°C barrier taking it up to 140°. Ideal for monitoring sterilisers.
In order to configure Thermochrons and read temperature data, you will need a special iButton Reader.
Ours come complete with USB connection and a full licence of eTemperature – the easiest, most powerful software for Thermochrons and Hygrochrons.
