Temperature data loggers

Tuesday, July 14th, 2009

Temperature is critical to storage of a variety of items ranging from food to blood and a failure of storage temperature (temperature abuse) can result in problems ranging from simple spoilage (i.e. the product is no longer at its best) through to severe risk of safety to human health.

Temperature data loggers from Data Acquisition Networks can be fitted and operated for a fraction of the cost of the loss that will result from temperature abuse. DAN temperature data loggers also automate permanent record collection thereby enabling analysis of the likely severity of a temperature abuse incident.

Talk to Data Acquisition Networks (DAN) today about how automated data collection will ensure the safety of your product held in a temperature controlled environment.

What is the difference between a good temperature data logger and a poor effort?

Monday, June 22nd, 2009

The answer to this question lies in:

  1. The extent to which a temperature data logger automates the process of data collection
  2. Whether data monitoring is continuous
  3. Flexibility in system set-up

Temperature data loggers supplied by Data Acquisition Networks have an A+ rating on each of these criteria. Data collection is 24/7 and not just when someone has the time, data monitoring is continuous enabling food storage history to be tracked without gaps and the DAN website enables the user to logon much as you do to your bank account and change system parameters and set up alarms.

 Data Acquisition Networks is committed to ‘excellence and affordable solution’ for temperature data logging!

Temperature Monitoring

Friday, January 16th, 2009

Gone are the days when it was good enough to simply have a member of staff read a critical temperature and write it down and gone are the days when it was good enough to have automated record generation that nobody looks at! Temperature management and certainty that goods have not been temperature abused is a far more serious matter.

DAN data monitoring systems are very inexpensive and can be mounted in vehicles, on refrigerated containers, in warehouses and in display cabinets. DAN systems send data routinely over the GPRS system to a website and also send alarms when things go wrong so that immediate corrective action can be taken. DAN monitoring systems provide a permanent record of your temperature due diligence.

Data Service Agreement

Monday, December 8th, 2008

DAN recognises that when some people buy a DAN data logger what they are really buying is the data they need, available to them when they want it. They choose DAN data logging equipment because it never lets them down but it’s the data they actually want NOT the equipment!

As an alternative to offering ‘capital purchase’ of DAN equipment, Data Acquisition Networks is now offering ‘Provision of Service Agreements’. All this simply means is that you pay a monthly fee for a 36-month period for your required data to be collected and made available for you on the website. For you there are no set-up costs, no capital requisitions, just the data you want, delivered to your desk within days of you making the inquiry.

DAN is always seeking ways to make life easier for customers. If you have interest in a ‘Provision of Service Agreement’ please ask your DAN representative for more information.

Central Control through data monitoring

Friday, November 28th, 2008

Data Acquisition Networks data loggers offer many unique features but perhaps the two most valued by many large organisations is:

1. The visibility of data to all those that have a need to see it and

2. The fact DAN creates permanent data records

DAN systems collect data routinely and send it to a website. The data is secure. It cannot be tampered with and it is available to anyone given password access. Auditors for ISO and other systems also value the fact that DAN data cannot be altered. 

Data Monitoring

Friday, November 28th, 2008

Data Acquisition Networks Pty Ltd (DAN) has developed a flexible remote monitoring system that provides the ability to gather data from remote sites and/or difficult to reach sites and make that data available conveniently on a central web site.  Information can therefore be accessed from anywhere in the world where access to the internet is available, all that is required is a user name and password.  In addition, the system may be extended to incorporate local control, with control variables being altered via the web site.

Remote Data Logging

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

DAN data loggers offer a number of benefits over more conventional data logging systems and more than often do so at a fraction of the cost. DAN data loggers are most applicable wherre:

  1. There is a need to make routine or regular site visits to a remote location in order to maintain or adjust on site monitoring equipment
  2. There is a need to gather information from and/or change control parameters in geographically remote locations or in locations which are difficult to access
  3. There is the need to respond to alarm conditions if a site is unattended
  4. There is a need to maintain records or log equipment performance due to legislated requirements
  5. There is a need for production supervisors to monitor processes where the process is continuous
  6. There is a need by senior management of multi-site organisations to compare performance between sites
  7. There is a need to gather data from sites where access is restricted
  8. There is a need to gather data from a vehicle that is constantly on the move 

Data logging using a Hosted Managed Service

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

The need for gathering information from remote sites has been growing steadily.  Around the world, the use of outsourced managed services, or in the context of DAN’s development ‘HOSTED MANAGED SERVICES” is clearly on the increase.  A recent survey conducted by IDC a large US based survey organisation, showed that the use of hosted managed services in the VOIP market is increasing at 282% per year and by 2008 will be worth US$7.8 Billion in the US market alone.

 

Unlike those that develop more capable systems by adding to existing technology, DAN has developed a new technology from the ground up while incorporating those elements of existing technology which fit the structure and provide a level of reliability.

Website collection of data logger data

Monday, August 18th, 2008

The DAN Website communicates directly with the Data Control Centre located in the field. The DAN website hosts all necessary software enabling end users to set up and maintain their measurement or control application, specify alarm conditions, SMS and email addresses for alarm notification and to view measured data. Communication between the DCC and the website occurs via commercial networks including CDMA, Satellite or landline whichever is most appropriate for the particular situation. Within this innovative monitoring system, DAN has incorporated significant novel concepts and technological advancements over existing competitive products. The incorporation of these items has required significant research and testing prior to their release.

Data logger - general description

Monday, August 18th, 2008

DAN has developed and taken to market, a flexible remote monitoring system that provides the ability to gather data from any site including difficult to reach or geographically remote sites and make that data available conveniently on a central and secure web site on a ‘real time’ basis.  Site reporting criteria and alarm notification can be altered and current information accessed from anywhere in the world where access to the internet is available.  In addition, the system may be extended to incorporate local control, with control variables also being altered over the internet via the web site.
