LogTag Dry Ice Temperature Logger

$214.50 inc GST

For extremely low temperatures – with no messy probes

This specialist LogTag will record temperatures as low as -80°C – the temperature of dry ice. You can place the logger directly in with your dry ice shipment (no need for a probe) to log temperatures across the journey.

The logger is reusable and will last up to 1,000 hours at -80°C.

Pack it with your shipment

If you’re dealing with dry ice, such as the transportation of goods cooled by dry ice, the LogTag Dry Ice Recorder is the product for you. Directly monitor temperatures as low as -80°C with the battery capability to record for 1,000 hours at that temperature.

This logger doesn’t require a probe. Pack it directly in with your shipment for the most accurate measurements.

Specifications

Product Model TRIL-8
Sensor Measurement Range -80°C to 40°C (-112°F to 104°F).
Operating Temperature Range -80°C to 40°C (-112°F to 104°F).
Storage Temperature Range -20°C to 40°C (-4°F to 104°F).
Rated Temperature Reading Accuracy Better than ±1°C for -30°C to 20°C. Better than ±1.2°C for -45°C to -30°C and 20°C to 40°C. Better than ±1.7°C for 80°C to -45°C. Actual performance is typically much better than the rated values. Please see the Rated Absolute Accuracy chart below. Accuracy figures can be improved by recalibration.
Rated Temperature Reading Resolution Less than 0.1°C for -80°C to 0°C. Less than 0.2°C for 0°C to 20°C. Less than 0.5°C for 20°C to 40°C. Please see the Rated Native Resolution chart below. LogTag Analyzer® currently displays to one decimal place of °C or °F. The native resolution is what is stored in the LogTag®.
Sensor Reaction Time Typically less than 5 minutes (T90) in moving air (1m/s).
Recording Capacity 8000 temperature readings. 53 days @ 10min logging, 80 days @ 15min logging.

Logging Start Options Push button start or specific date & time.
Recording Indication Flashing ‘OK’ indicator / flashing ‘ALERT’ indicator.
Download Time Typically less than 5 seconds for full memory (8000 readings), depending on computer or readout device used.
Environmental IP65 (roughly equivalent to NEMA 4).
Power Source 3.6V low temperature chemistry Lithium battery.
Battery Life Storage life of up to 12 months before ‘start’. Rated for up to 1000 hours of exposure to -80°C.
Real Time Clock Built-in real time clock. Rated accuracy ±25ppm @ 25°C (equivalent to 2.5 seconds/day). Rated temperature coefficient is -0.034 ±0.006ppm/°C (I.e typically /- 0.00294 seconds/day/°C).

A note about battery life

As the temperature drops, so does the life of your battery.

The LogTag Dry Ice Temperature Recorder is one of the only loggers that will even function at -78.5°C, the surface temperature of dry ice, but any electronic device operating at that temperature pays a price in battery life.

The device was previously rated at 1,000 readings, but now the fine print reads 1,000 hours at -80°C.

That’s quite a difference. If you’re sampling every five minutes, that equates to 12,000 readings, not 1,000.

Remember that the LogTag Dry Ice is a reuseable device, so your 1,000 hours are cumulative and may occur over the course of a year or two. In between uses, when the LogTag is at room temperature, the battery will last as long as a regular logger.

What is covered with our shipping insurance?

Our normal terms and conditions (like most businesses) is that you take possession the moment an order ships. If the order is lost or damaged in transit then, in theory, it’s your problem. In reality we will have a conversation and try to work out a good way to resolve the issue where we are both happy (or not too upset).

Shipping insurance is there to remove the drama. If an order is lost or damaged in transit, we will simply send out a replacement, and we will then deal with the courier directly to resolve the original problem.

Our shipping insurance also means that if an order is delayed beyond what is normal and reasonable then we will send you another shipment (stock levels permitting). Then you should receive one of them sooner, and when the second one arrives you simply Return To Sender.

How much is shipping insurance?

Shipping insurance is 5% of the cost of the goods.

Is it worth it? Practically we have had far less than 5% of shipments have problems. It is, however, what Australia Post and other couriers charge. Ultimately insurance is about peace of mind and less hassle when something does go wrong.

Shipping insurance as an option

Shipping insurance is offered as an option on all our web sites. You can select it at the checkout.

For large orders our staff may also ask if you would like shipping insurance.

If you would like shipping insurance on an order you are placing with us, just ask.

Mandatory shipping insurance

Unfortunately we have had a couple of large orders not make it and then the customer refused to pay. A friend suggested that the easy way to avoid the dispute is to insure any shipments where we have a significant risk.

If you would like an immediate line of credit (30 days to pay) and have the goods ship immediately (no credit check delays) and are purchasing over $500 then we will add shipping insurance to your order.

The shipping insurance can be waived if the order is between $500 and $2,000 and you provide us with a formal confirmation that you accept responsibility of the goods once they ship.

Alternatively you can prepay by direct deposit or credit card.

What is not covered?

If there is a clear proof of delivery to the shipping address provided then we class that as delivered. Unfortunately there are cases where it is lost somewhere between the loading dock or receptionist and ending up in your hands. But we also know that a photo of the bag against a generic grey background is not proof of delivery, it is just proof of existence! It needs to be a reasonable proof of delivery.

It also doesn’t cover the expectation of overnight delivery. For example, if we were to ship to Melbourne (we are in Sydney) then we would expect it to be delivered within about 3 days. Most of the time it is overnight, but there are enough floods and other issues that regularly cause minor delays. Sending a second order the next day tends to not fix the problem. If it is super urgent, talk to us about how we can minimise the risk.

For damage claims we ask that you contact us immediately and we will probably ask for photos or some proof. The shipping insurance doesn’t cover claims weeks later. We do have warranty covering our items, but it excludes physical damage (e.g. being dropped). If the goods are damaged in transit then please let us know ASAP so we can cover it under the shipping insurance.
