Dry Ice Transportation Temperature Monitoring Solutions
Choose the right dry ice temperature data logger for transporting products or critical samples at ultra-low temperatures.
Dry ice, also known as solid carbon dioxide, is a common refrigerant and freezing agent used in the transportation, storage and refrigeration of items that require a constant low temperature. In the food industry, dry ice is commonly used in the transportation and storage of frozen foods, fresh ingredients, and therapeutic cold foods that need to be kept at low temperatures. In the pharmaceutical and biomedical sectors, dry ice is commonly used to store and transport biologics, vaccines, and medical cold chain products to ensure that the drugs are stored at the required low temperatures. Dry ice is also commonly used in the refrigeration of reagents and biological samples, where it is important to maintain low temperature conditions in the laboratory. In addition, dry ice is also used in cosmetics, certain medications and other unique products that need to be kept at a certain temperature.
Advantages of Dry Ice Transportation
A very effective, flexible and environmentally friendly refrigerant for many applications requiring short-term, fast and efficient refrigeration, especially in cold chain logistics pursuits. Its advantages are
1
Extremely low temperature
Dry ice has a very low temperature of about -78.5°C. This makes it a very effective freezing medium. This makes it a very effective freezing medium, providing a rapid and powerful freezing effect.
2
No residue
Dry ice is completely converted to carbon dioxide gas after use, leaving no residue. This means that products frozen with dry ice will not be contaminated with dry ice residue after thawing.
3
No external energy required
Dry ice itself requires no external energy, which makes it ideal for situations where short-term refrigeration is required, such as temporary transportation processes.
4
Long storage time
Compared to other freezing media such as ice cubes, dry ice has a longer-lasting freezing effect and is able to maintain a low temperature for a longer period of time.
5
recyclability
Carbon dioxide gas is quickly released, ablates and disappears, so there is no residue in the box. This makes packaging and outer packaging (e.g., foam polystyrene boxes) reusable.
Application of Dry Ice in the Pharmaceutical Industry
APIs, vaccines, freeze-dried substances and human tissue samples must be transported in the glass phase at the lowest possible temperature (below -60 °C or even below -150 °C). For this reason, dry ice is commonly used for temperature control, with an average evaporation temperature of -78 °C. Some COVID-19 vaccines will also likely need to be shipped at temperatures below -60 °C. To protect your critical samples and assets, and to ensure the efficacy of your patient's medications, it's important to choose the right Macrohon ELPRO dry ice data logger for your application.
Temperature Monitoring of Dry Ice Transportation and Storage Essentials
Regular monitoring and recording of temperatures during dry ice transportation and storage ensures that samples and assets are kept within safe limits and protected from damage due to over- or under-temperature. Use accurate and reliable temperature monitoring equipment and follow monitoring frequency and recording protocols to ensure quality is not compromised and pharmaceutical industry standards are met. When temperature abnormalities are detected, immediate adjustments and corrections are required to ensure quality and stability.
The Importance of Choosing a Dry Ice Temperature Logger for Extremely Low Temperature Environments
Most dry ice temperature loggers on the market operate at -80.0°C. If you ship dry ice on a regular basis, you may be wondering why the temperature at the time of shipment is below that limit. In fact, during regular transportation, due to vibration or differential pressure, the temperature of dry ice can fall well below -80.0°C. So when selecting a temperature recorder, be sure to consider using a monitoring range below -80°C, or even cover -90°C. To protect your critical samples and assets, ensure the efficacy of your patients' medications, and meet domestic and international regulatory compliance requirements, it is important to select the correct ELPRO Dry Ice Temperature Recorder for your application.
