Shipment Temperature Monitoring for Milk Crate Transport

eTradeWire News/10787408
CLEVELAND - eTradeWire -- Low-Cost Transit Loggers Meet Food Safety Transportation Standards

A milk supply company sought a temperature monitoring solution to track shipments from the bottling plant to stores. During deliveries to distant receivers, including farmers' markets and supermarket chains, the milk's temperature must remain below 2-3°C (36-37°F) throughout transit. Naturally, milk is an extremely temperature-sensitive product, which begins to spoil if its temperature rises by more than a few degrees above this range, curdling in the container.

To ensure the quality of their products in transit, the company sought a reliable temperature-measuring solution. The need for immediate validation of temperature history, without reliance on proprietary software, led them to search for a continuous monitoring system to provide on-site proof of quality to receivers.

Installation

The milk company selected Halveon T-Stream Multi-Use data loggers for their refrigerated shipments to closely monitor milk temperature during transport. Drivers place the loggers into self-adhesive pouches and place them directly onto the crates, four per truck. During deliveries, the internal sensor in each unit accurately monitors the milk with a typical accuracy of 0.5°C and a resolution of 0.1°C. Their lightweight and compact design makes for an easy fit among the crates.

Usage

The data loggers start with a simple button push and allow users to bookmark key readings while continuing to monitor. With advanced alarms, they instantly alert drivers if temperatures go out of range, while the display lets users check status during routine stops. The loggers also show minimum, maximum, and average temperatures, and setup is easy via T-Stream MU software, which configures intervals and limits

Benefits

By using portable T-Stream data loggers in their milk trucks, the company ensures reliable, real-time monitoring of their temperature-sensitive product during transport. These compact loggers, equipped with free setup software, generate easy-to-read reports for receivers, confirming that the milk's temperature was consistently maintained. This simple yet effective solution reduces spoilage and the risk of rejected shipments, saving both time and product.

The T-Stream loggers revolutionize milk shipment monitoring by instantly generating a printed .pdf report upon delivery, ensuring both shippers and receivers have the documentation needed for FDA compliance and customer assurance. Looking ahead, the potential integration of Halveon T-Stream RM loggers promises even greater control, offering continuous live data updates and real-time alerts via SMS and email, giving customers immediate notifications of any shipment issues.
