Temperature sensor ValProbe

monitoringmedicalfor the pharmaceutical industry

Overview
The Kaye ValProbe family of temperature loggers provides accurate, convenient and reliable process measurement for pharmaceutical and medical device environments. Wireless probes simplify monitoring and validation in ovens, sterilizers, lyophilizers and other hard-to-reach locations. Probes are offered in rigid and bendable configurations to match insertion and measurement requirements.

Features

• RTD sensor technology for high accuracy across a wide temperature range
• System downloads up to 10 probes simultaneously
• Cycle-based data collection, calculation and reporting from up to 200 sensors
• Enables compliance with FDA Regulation 21 CFR Part 11
• Designed for easy on-site calibration
• Battery life indicator and field-replaceable battery
• Reporting can merge with a Validator study or an RF ValProbe study

Applications

• Sterilizers
• Ovens
• Tunnels
• Lyophilizers (freeze dryers)
• Stability chambers
• Warehouses
• Temperature chambers
