Streamline Your Operations with Automated Temperature Logging, Verification, and Reporting
Manually checking and logging medical coolers and freezers throughout the day is time consuming and often inaccurate. Your busy staff needs to focus on the customer, not tedious reporting. Swift Sensors has you covered. Our remote medical lab temperature monitoring solution automatically captures and generates the log reports you need, so you don’t have to.
You can be assured the reports are accurate and complete for your next inspection. And, your lab must meet CLIA requirements, we automate daily temperature verification as well. With the increasing challenge of finding and keeping highly-trained staff, automation can streamline your operation and guarantee accuracy without putting additional stress on your team.
Common Medical Lab Measurements
Remote Monitoring Options for Medical Labs
Sensors for Every Range
Swift Sensors remote vaccine monitoring solutions for both refrigerated and frozen vaccines guards against equipment failure. Our ultra-low wireless temperature sensor measure between -100°C to +200°C (-148°F to +392°F), appropriate for frozen vaccines. While our standard wireless sensors measure between -40°C to +125°C (-40°F to +257°F). We offer different probe types, temperature ranges, and mounting options for measurements in any kind of specialty refrigerators, coolers, or freezers.
Buffer from Harm
Temperature inside a refrigerator can move rapidly each time the door is opened or closed. Many times, this change in temperature is not truly indicative of the temperature of the vaccines or medicines stored in the refrigerator or freezer. Using the Swift Sensors glycol-filled bottle with our temperature sensors, your vaccine monitoring system reports more representative temperatures of the vaccines and medicines within their storage.
Don’t leave it to chance.
There’s nothing worse than coming in after a long weekend to find a vaccine refrigerator or freezer with a door left open. With busy support staff working long hours, a simple oversight can trigger thousands in losses. Swift Sensors wireless open/close door and window sensor offer different options for your environment. And our door open/close sensor can provide added security for access points to your facility – particularly if you have extended hours or delivery vendors with access for restocking your business
Keep Your Cool
Wireless ambient temperature and humidity sensors ensure that your laboratory, pharmacy or medical clinic environments are maintained at safe and comfortable levels. Whether you are monitoring the comfort level of your retail areas or tracking the working conditions in the labs, you can distribute our wireless ambient temperature and humidity sensors throughout your facility to keep you in the know.
Stay Plugged In
Power outages and surges can damage your refrigeration equipment or your vaccine supply. An unexpected increase in power draw might be an indication that your equipment needs servicing, giving you another chance to take action before you real damage occurs. Using Swift Sensors wireless voltage and current sensors, you will know if, when, and how long your different voltage and current sources are having problems.

Why Choose Swift Sensors
FAQ - Medical Lab Temperature Monitoring
Swift Sensors remote monitoring and alert system is a simple, low-cost approach to managing the temperatures of your medicines, reagents, samples, and trials in refrigerators and freezers. Monitor the temperature data directly from your phone and receive an email or text immediately when measurements drift into danger levels. With Swift Sensors, you can be up and running in minutes and protect your assets, equipment, and peace of mind for years.
Medical Labs and Pharmaceutical Manufacturers have one of 3 common types of medical lab temperature monitoring systems:
- Nothing – Some are willing to take their chances and risk losing time, money, and regulatory penalties from a major equipment failure and catastrophic inventory loss.
- Employee-Based – Others owners will use employees to monitor equipment, log temperatures, and report on any issues they see with the refrigeration equipment.
- Wireless – Still other owners choose a wireless automated vaccine temperature monitoring system to remotely monitor temperatures and send alerts when issues start to appear.
Medical labs and pharmaceutical manufacturers experience a number of benefits when they use a medical lab temperature monitoring system, including:
- Be the First to Know – Rather than getting surprised with major problems in the morning or after a long weekend when equipment fails, you can get an immediate alert when your freezers or coolers show their first signs of trouble. With an automated text, email, or phone call from the system, you know exactly when equipment is showing the signs of failure so you can act fast to save your inventory and get your cooler repaired.
- Offload Busy Staff – It’s hard to hire and train reliable staff. Rather than ask them to do the tedious work of manually checking and logging temperatures throughout the day, automate the process with a vaccine temperature monitoring system. Not only will your employees appreciate more time to focus on the customer, you will get more complete and more accurate temperature logs.
- Reduce Your Risk – When you have thousands of dollars of inventory stored in a cooler or freezer, equipment failure is a huge business risk. Not only do you lose the inventory, you also have to spend all your time getting things back in place – assessing the damage, clearing out the spoiled inventory, reordering and restocking replacements, modifying menus, or even closing until you are back up and running. The financial risk is great, and the risk of regulatory audits is real.
- Improve Quality – When medicines, tissue samples, or drug trials are stored at incorrect temperatures, the effectiveness can be damaged or lost. With a medical lab temperature monitoring system, you not only know when equipment fails, you can also track its performance in general, and schedule maintenance to keep it operating properly and your food at its best.
- Compliance with CDC – Many businesses are required to comply with safety regulations from the CDC. Don’t leave it to chance – your temperature logs prove that you are in compliance when you have an automated temperature monitoring system in place.
- Better Insights – When you have an automated medical lab temperature monitoring system, you’ll have all of your historical data available at your fingertips. With this historical data, you will gain valuable insight into how you optimize your processes and predict when equipment may require maintenance.
An automated medical lab or pharmaceutical temperature monitoring system is comprised of the following components:
- Sensors for measuring temperature, humidity as well as leak events, power consumption, open doors, and more.
- A Gateway that communicates with each sensor and collects the measurement data periodically and transmits it to a central cloud location.
- Cloud Software where you can view the measurement data, set alarm levels, and define notifications to alert you or your employees when the measurement data starts to show signs of trouble.
Swift Sensors offers multiple temperature sensors depending on the type of cooler/freezer and temperature range you need to measure, including:
- SS3-101 Ambient Temperature and Humidity Sensor – ideal for glass-front refrigerators, merchandizers, and low-boys.
- SS3-103 Wireless Temperature Sensor with Ring Lug Probe – for standard or walk-in where you can keep the sensor unit outside the cooler and feed the lead through the door jamb to get accurate temperature readings inside the refrigeration unit.
- SS3-105 Wireless Temperature Sensor with 1m Probe – for walk-in coolers where you mount the sensor on the outside of the cooler and feed the probe through a port or hole in the wall of the cooler.
- SS3-110 Ultra Cold Wireless Temperature Sensor – for ultra cold freezers going down to -100C.
Each of these sensors are commonly used in Medical Lab and Pharmaceutical Temperature Monitoring systems.
A basic medical lab or pharmaceutical temperature monitoring system has three primary components with the following costs:
- Sensors prices range from about $100 to $280 depending on the sensor type and range
- Gateways cost $330
- Monitoring Service is $65/year for each sensor
