Keep your cold-chain shipments fully accountable with this compact, single-use temperature data logger. Designed for monitoring food, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and other temperature-sensitive goods during transport and storage, this device records up to 10,000 data points over 60 days — then generates an instant PDF report the moment you plug it into any USB port. No software, no cables, no reader required.
Made in Mainland China.
Key Features
- Plug-and-Play PDF Reports: Insert directly into any PC USB port after recording to auto-generate a complete temperature log in PDF format — no additional software needed.
- High Accuracy: ±0.5°C precision across the -20°C to +40°C range ensures trustworthy data for regulatory and quality-assurance purposes.
- 10,000-Point Data Capacity: Records at 10-minute intervals for up to 60 days of uninterrupted monitoring.
- Visual Alarm Indicators: Green LED = temperature within range; Red LED = alarm condition triggered (below 2°C or above 8°C). Alerts are visible at a glance without connecting to a computer.
- Single-Use & Tamper-Evident: Designed for one complete recording cycle, ensuring data integrity for audits, compliance, and chain-of-custody documentation.
- Ultra-Compact & Lightweight: At just 67 × 28 mm and 13 g, it fits inside virtually any package or shipment container.
- 30-Minute Start Delay: Built-in delay after activation gives you time to seal and dispatch the shipment before logging begins.

How to Use
- Activate: Press and hold the Start/Stop button for more than 3 seconds. The green (OK) indicator will illuminate for 3 seconds, confirming the device has begun its 30-minute pre-record delay. Place the device in the target environment.
- Monitor: During recording, the device flashes every 10 seconds — green for normal conditions, red if the temperature has exceeded the alarm threshold. Once a red alarm is triggered, the green indicator will no longer flash.
- Stop Recording: Hold the Start/Stop button for 3+ seconds (red alarm light will illuminate for 3 seconds to confirm stop). Recording also stops automatically when memory is full.
- Generate Report: Remove from waterproof packaging and insert directly into a PC USB port. The device will auto-generate a PDF temperature report. Both indicator lights will illuminate during file creation; the green light remains on until the logger is removed.
Important: Do not press the stop button or connect to a computer during recording. This is a single-use device and cannot be re-used after a completed recording cycle.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can this USB temperature data logger be reused after a recording cycle?
A: No. This is a single-use, disposable temperature data logger. Once the recording cycle is complete and the PDF report has been generated, the device cannot be reset or reused. This design ensures data integrity and tamper-evidence for compliance and chain-of-custody documentation.
Q: Do I need to install any software to read the PDF temperature report?
A: No software installation is required. Simply plug the logger directly into any standard USB port on your PC. The device will automatically generate a PDF temperature report that can be opened with any standard PDF viewer (such as Adobe Acrobat Reader).
Q: What triggers the red alarm indicator on the temperature logger?
A: The red alarm LED illuminates every 10 seconds if the recorded temperature falls below 2°C (35.6°F) or rises above 8°C (46.4°F) at any point during the monitoring period. Once triggered, the red alarm indicator replaces the green indicator for the remainder of the recording session.
Q: How long can this temperature data logger record, and how many data points does it store?
A: The logger records at 10-minute intervals for up to 60 days, storing up to 10,000 individual temperature data points. This makes it ideal for long-haul freight and extended storage monitoring scenarios.
