How Disposable Time Temperature Indicators Guard Your Blood Bags
There is strict temperature requirement for the storage and transportation of blood bags. For example, whole blood and red blood cell products should be stored at 2-6℃. If too warm, it will lead to the rapid loss of potency and the risk of bacteria breeding. If too cold, the freezing can make red cells unsafe for transfusion. So to ensure the safety usage of blood, the time temperature indicators monitor the temperature and show clear indication when the temperature exceeds the preset threshold. This is how the temperature indicators work.
The Thermis Tag 1 from Freshliance is such a disposable time temperature indicator. The blood bag temperature indicator is compact and easy for adhesion on blood bag. There is a sensor with battery inside to monitor the temperature changes. When the temperatures go beyond a predefined threshold, the red LED light on the blood bag temperature indicator will flash as a clear, irreversible and permanent warning that the products may have been compromised. Both of high and low temperature alarms are able to be set.
With preset the alarm delay, the Freshliance’s disposable temperature indicator Thermis Tag 1 can also track how long time the temperature higher than the normal range. There are two types of alarm delay: Single event and Cumulative time. Single event means to have alarm when exceeding the temperature limit for continuous time. The cumulative time means to have alarm when exceeding the the temperature limit for accumulated time.
Furthermore, the single-use time temperature indicator Thermis Tag 1 of Freshliance has wide temperature measuring range -30~+70℃ and high accuracy ±0.5℃, also water-proof with IP68 rating. The long battery life (5 years or 400 days optional) and disposable feature make it as a reliable and economical choice for protecting blood safety.
By providing an immediate, visual alert to temperature abuse, disposable time temperature indicator Thermis Tag 1 from Freshliance helps prompt risk and protect the integrity of blood supply.
