System for Remote Monitoring of Temperature and Humidity in pharmacies and laboratories

Remote temperature and humidity monitoring system for pharmacies and pharmaceutical warehouses provides detailed information about medical products storage temperature and humidity levels. You will be notified immediately if any of controlled parameters are out of allowed ranges.

Main features:

  1. Reduce spoilage of the pharmacy products – The key personnel is receiving real-time alerts via email or SMS if refrigerator humidity or temperature is out of allowed range.
  2. Monitor environment from anywhere – Access to the remote monitoring system for 24/7 via the Internet.
  3. Compliance with regulations – monitoring the temperature of the refrigerator or room is an obligation resulting from the regulations contained in the Regulation of the Minister of Health of October 27, 2022 on the basic conditions for running a pharmacy.
  4. Prevent failure of equipment – Be aware of early warning signs that can help prevent medical refrigeration equipment failure.
  5. Save time and resources – Remote monitoring system tracks temperature and humidity automatically, so there is no need for manual checking.

SensMax offers a reliable remote temperature monitoring system for pharmacies and medical warehouses which provides an efficient way of knowing if refrigeration equipment is failing, and thus saving money avoiding product spoilage. Pharmaceutical products very often are subject to legislation requiring storing or transporting products at a predefined temperature. The remote monitoring system for pharmacies is sending warnings via e-mail or SMS to personnel if pharmaceutical products exposed to temperatures level outside the range prescribed for its storage or transportation.

The Regulation of the Minister of Health of October 27, 2022 on the basic conditions for running pharmacies requires them to have equipment for 24-hour monitoring of temperature and humidity in rooms where prescription and pharmacy medicines and homeopathic medicinal products are prepared.

These regulations state that pharmacies provide:

  • in rooms where prescription and pharmacy medicines and homeopathic medicinal products are prepared, and in rooms used for storing medicinal products, foodstuffs for particular nutritional uses, pharmaceutical raw materials and medical devices, equipment for 24-hour monitoring of temperature and humidity;
  • in refrigeration devices used to store medicinal products, foodstuffs for particular nutritional uses, pharmaceutical raw materials and medical devices, temperature monitoring equipment.

The Regulation of the Minister of Health of April 11, 2023 extended the deadline for pharmacies to adapt to the requirements for monitoring temperature and humidity in specific rooms and pharmacy devices to 36 months, i.e. these regulations will come into force at the end of 2025.

The temperature monitoring system is suitable for pharmaceutical warehouses with complex infrastructure with a mix of storage areas such as warehousing, mezzanine floors, vaults and cages, cold rooms, walk-in coolers and refrigerators, and freezers. The monitoring system works well in hospitals, pharmacies, laboratories, blood and tissue banks. The compact design of the digital temperature sensors allows their use even in small storage facilities like a small walk-in-cold room as well as inside coolers, refrigerators, and freezers. There are high accuracy temperature sensors available for measurements in laboratories. The sensors can measure temperature within a range of -200℃…+200℃ with accuracy ±0.1℃ and resolution ±0.01℃.

 

 

You can choose any of the wireless temperature sensors from the list that fits your requirements. There are waterproof temperature sensors, temperature sensors with a probe, or high accuracy temperature sensors with the maximal temperature measurement range from -200C to +200C. Wireless sensors read temperature parameters every 5 minutes.  Statistical data from the monitoring sensors delivered to an online reporting portal using LAN/Internet data gateway. The data gateway has internal memory for short-term backup to avoid data leakage in case of Internet connectivity problems. One data gateway can read statistics from up to 250 sensors in the 150m range.
