Dry Ice Transportation Temperature Monitoring Solutions
Choose the right dry ice temperature data logger for shipping products or critical samples at ultra-low temperatures.
Dry ice, also known as solid carbon dioxide, is a common refrigerant and freezing agent used in the transportation, storage, and refrigeration of items that need to be kept at a constant low temperature. In the food industry, dry ice is commonly used in the transportation and storage of frozen foods, fresh ingredients, and therapeutic cold foods that need to be kept at low temperatures. In the pharmaceutical and biomedical sectors, dry ice is commonly used for storing and transporting biologics, vaccines, and medical cold chain products to ensure that medications are stored at the required low temperatures. Dry ice is also commonly used to freeze reagents and biological samples, where it is important to maintain low temperature conditions in the laboratory. Additionally, dry ice is used in cosmetics, certain medications and other unique products that need to be stored at certain temperatures.
Advantages of Dry Ice Transportation
A very effective, flexible and environmentally friendly refrigerant for many applications requiring short-term, fast and efficient refrigeration, especially in cold chain logistics pursuits. Its advantages are
1
Extremely low temperature
Dry ice has a very low temperature of about -78.5°C. This makes it a very effective freezing medium. This makes it a very effective freezing medium, providing a rapid and powerful freezing effect.
2
No residue
Dry ice is completely converted to carbon dioxide gas after use, leaving no residue. This means that products frozen with dry ice will not be contaminated with dry ice residue after thawing.
3
No external energy required
Dry ice itself requires no external energy, which makes it ideal for situations where short-term refrigeration is required, such as temporary transportation processes.
4
Long storage time
Compared to other freezing media such as ice cubes, dry ice has a longer-lasting freezing effect and can maintain a low temperature for a longer period of time.
5
recyclability
Carbon dioxide gas is quickly released, ablates and disappears, so there is no residue in the box. This makes packaging and outer packaging (e.g. foam polystyrene boxes) reusable.
Application of Dry Ice in the Pharmaceutical Industry
APIs, vaccines, freeze-dried substances and human tissue samples must be transported in the glass phase at the lowest possible temperature (below -60 °C or even below -150 °C). For this reason, dry ice is commonly used for temperature control, with an average evaporation temperature of -78 °C. Some COVID-19 vaccines will also likely need to be shipped at temperatures below -60 °C. To protect your critical samples and assets, and to ensure the efficacy of your patient's medications, it's important to select the right Iridescent ELPRO Dry Ice Data Logger for your application.
By regularly monitoring and recording the temperature of dry ice during transportation and storage, it is possible to ensure that critical samples and assets are kept within safe temperature ranges and protected from damage caused by excessively high or low temperatures. When selecting temperature monitoring equipment, it is best to choose accurate and reliable equipment that strictly adheres to monitoring frequency and recording requirements to ensure that its quality is not compromised and that it strictly complies with pharmaceutical industry regulations. If temperature anomalies are detected, timely measures should be taken to adjust and correct them to ensure their quality and stability.
Most dry ice temperature loggers on the market operate at -80.0°C. If you ship dry ice on a regular basis, you may be wondering why the temperature at the time of shipment is below that limit. In fact, during regular transportation, due to vibration or pressure differentials, the temperature of dry ice can fall well below -80.0°C. So when selecting a temperature logger, be sure to consider using a monitoring range below -80°C, or even cover -90°C. To protect your critical samples and assets, ensure the efficacy of your patients' medications, and meet domestic and international regulatory compliance requirements, it is important to select the correct ELPRO Dry Ice Temperature Recorder for your application.
