Cost-effective thermal validations: How a move to wireless data loggers can really pay off

Long a mainstay in the pharmaceutical world, thermocouple systems are increasingly falling out of favor with validation engineers. The primary motivator is simple: cost. Thermocouple systems are inefficient to use and maintain. In their place, self-contained thermistor-based data logger systems are a cost-effective alternative that can offer companies a surprisingly fast payback. According to this white paper by Veriteq Instruments Inc., data logger systems offer better accuracy, better sensor stability, no cables or wire and built-in humidity capability, among other advantages.

Better accuracy means you can avoid the expense of needless troubleshooting and having to repeat validation runs; better sensor stability means minimized setup, calibration and maintenance expenses associated with each validation run.
