Autoclave Temperature Monitoring
The stainless - steel autoclave is an industrial device with characteristics such as corrosion resistance, high - temperature resistance, and high strength. It is a common industrial equipment mainly used for heating, pressurizing, and storing liquids or gases. Made of stainless - steel materials, it has the features of being resistant to corrosion, high - temperature, and having high strength.
It consists of a container body, a sealing device, etc., and is used for heating, pressurizing, and storing liquids or gases. It is widely applied in industries such as chemical engineering, medicine, and food, and is used in processes like cooking, heating, filling, fermentation, and food processing.
The temperature during the operation of the autoclave is of crucial importance, which is related to aspects such as the progress of the reaction, product quality, equipment lifespan, and production safety.
In the food processing and pharmaceutical industries, temperature control is directly related to product quality and safety. When sterilizing food, if the temperature is too low, microorganisms cannot be effectively killed, resulting in a shortened shelf - life of the food; if the temperature is too high, it may damage the nutritional components and taste of the food. In the preparation of drug crystal forms, precise temperature control is vital for obtaining specific crystal forms of drugs. Different crystal forms of drugs may have significant differences in solubility, stability, and bioavailability, thus affecting the efficacy of the drug.
As can be seen from the above, temperature monitoring during the operation of the autoclave is of great significance.
How to record the temperature during the operation of the autoclave?
Freshliance IRON TAG high-temperature recorder can effectively monitor whether the temperature of the autoclave during the entire operation process meets the requirements.
The IRON TAG Rugged Temperature Data Logger is protected by an S316 stainless steel casing and is ideal for temperature monitoring and recording in autoclave. It has high waterproof level. It can store up to 35,000 readings with an internal temperature sensor that can work at a temperature down to -90℃ or up to 150℃ with an accuracy of ±0.5℃.
User can set the device via free software, such as record interval, recording time, alarm level, etc. Connect it using a USB cable with computer to do the settings, then tighten the its cap, and put it in the autoclave directly, turn on the autoclave, the data logger will start to record data(temperature, pressure, etc.) automatically. After the sterilization task is completed, take it out, wait for some time to cool it down, then connect it to a PC via the USB port, it will automatically generate a data report inside the computer.
