Power Failure and Temperature Monitoring
Power failure monitoring is included with the system. When utility power is interrupted, designated personnel receive an alert so they can assess the situation and determine whether additional action is required.
Optional temperature sensors can be installed to monitor refrigerators, freezers, and other temperature-controlled equipment. Users can establish acceptable temperature limits and receive alerts when conditions move outside the programmed range.
The system supports a temperature-sensing range of -109°F to 168°F (-85°C to 76°C), depending on the sensor selected.
Monitor More Than Refrigeration Temperature
With capacity for up to 10 external sensors, the system can monitor multiple refrigerators, freezers, rooms, or environmental conditions from one device.
Depending on the sensors and accessories selected, monitored conditions may include:
- Refrigerator and freezer temperature
- Power failure
- Ambient room temperature
- Humidity
- Water leaks
- Equipment alarm contacts
- Other compatible environmental or equipment conditions
This flexibility makes the system suitable for pharmacies, hospitals, laboratories, clinics, blood banks, surgery centers, research facilities, and other operations responsible for temperature-sensitive products.
How It Works
1. Monitor : The system continuously monitors utility power and any connected sensors.
2. Detect : When a monitored condition moves outside its programmed limits, the system identifies the alarm condition.
3. Alert : Notifications are sent to designated personnel by text message, email, or voice call.
4. Respond : Staff can access the web-based platform to review current conditions and determine the appropriate response.
5. Document : Sensor readings are stored in the cloud, providing historical information that can support internal reviews, incident investigations, and temperature-management procedures.
Designed to Complement Battery Backup Protection
A battery backup system keeps refrigeration equipment operating during an outage. A monitoring system tells personnel when power has failed, when temperatures are changing, or when another condition requires attention.
Used together, these systems provide both active power protection and remote visibility. Alerts can help staff respond to extended outages, equipment malfunctions, abnormal temperature conditions, or events that exceed the available battery runtime.
Available Options
The Power Outage Alert System can be configured based on the number of refrigerators, freezers, locations, and conditions that need to be monitored.
Available options may include:
- Refrigerator or freezer temperature sensors
- Additional environmental sensors
- Cellular communication hardware
- Weather-resistant enclosure
- International power supply
- Additional monitoring accessories
Speak with Medi-Products to determine the appropriate configuration for your facility.
Add Remote Visibility to Your Refrigeration Protection Plan
Do not wait until staff return to the facility to discover that a refrigerator or freezer has lost power.
