6430 Excursion-Trac Temperature Monitoring & Data Logger Kit -- TM-6430

Excursion-Trac™ Temperature Monitoring & Data Logger Kit

A data logging thermometer for logging the most recent temperature observations (525,600…memory can be cleared). This calibrated logger has user-defined time intervals, downloads data to any USB stick, and meets current CDC requirements.

6440-Memory-Loc-Temperature-Monitoring-&-Data-Logger-Kit----TM-6440

Memory-Loc™ Temperature Monitoring & Data Logger Kit

A data logging thermometer that locks over 1 million temperature observations (good for 21 CFR 11 environments). This calibrated logger has user-defined time intervals, downloads data to any USB stick, and meets current CDC requirements.

The External Pocket Kit of Cool Cube™ 28 (CC-EPRK) is a retrofit kit for any tan, hard-cased Cool Cube™ 28 purchased prior to 2016. This kit adds an external pocket and flexible grommet to the outside of the case. These two features (now standard on the Cool Cube™ 28) enable the user to keep a monitor on the outside of the case during transport. Some assembly is required.

FAQs

General Cool Cube™

Components

l

Are replacement Cool Cube™ panels available?

Yes. All components are available for purchase. Click Here
l

What if something gets damaged? 

All components are available for purchase.
l

What is a PCM panel? 

A plastic panel filled with phase change material. Each Cool Cube™ comes with 6 PCM panels that make up the PCM System.
l

What is a VIP System? 

The VIP (Vacuum Insulation Panel) System consists of 6 panels that form an insulation barrier for the Cool Cube™. Each panel is a specially formed rigid foam board, shrink wrapped, encased in a metallic plastic film, and sealed under vacuum.
l

What is PCM

Phase Change Material – a substance with a high heat of fusion which, melting and solidifying at a certain temperature, is capable of storing and releasing large amounts of energy.
l

What is a VIP Panel?

Vacuum Insulation Panel – a form of thermal insulation consisting of a gas-tight enclosure surrounding a rigid core, from which the air has been evacuated.

Conditioning

l

Why are the Room Temperature panels not turning solid?

The PCM inside is NOT below its phase change temperature of 21.5°C/70.7°F. Make sure that the storage temperature is always below 20°C/68°F.
l

Why are the Fridge Temperature panels (PCM) not turning solid?

The PCM inside is NOT below its phase change temperature of 4.5°C/40.1°F. Make sure that the storage temperature is always below 4°C/39.2°F.
l

Why are the Frozen Temperature panels not turning solid?

The PCM inside is NOT below its phase change temperature of -21.5°C/-6.7°F. Make sure that the freezer temperature is always below -23°C/-9.4°F.
l

Can a regular freezer be used to prep refrigerator temperature panels and store panels?

Yes, for Cool Cubes™ at Fridge Temps. However, before pack-out, the panels must sit out and warm up until they “sweat” so that they don’t make the cooler too cold.
l

Can a regular refrigerator be used to prep and store refrigerated panels?

Yes, for Cool Cubes™ at Fridge Temps. Make sure the refrigerator temperature is below 4°C to ensure panels turn solid (the closer the fridge is to 4.5°C, the longer it will take to turn solid).
l

Can a regular freezer be used to prep and store lab freezer temperature panels?

Yes, but to get the panels truly hard, the freezer must maintain a temperature lower than -30°C. Otherwise, the panel will be at the temperature of the freezer (in a liquid state) and just won’t last as long.
l

Can panels be stacked during storage? 

Yes, but they will just take longer to condition (the middle panel will be the last to condition). For the quickest conditioning process, get as much air circulating around the panel as possible.
If the panels must be stacked we recommend inserting a spacer (pencil, tongue depressor, etc.) between each panel.
l

Does the whole Cool Cube™ need to be conditioned? 

No, but the PCM panels need to be prepped.
l

What does it mean when a panel is liquid? 

The PCM inside is above its phase change temperature.
l

Should I condition the VIP system?

No. It is not necessary to condition the vacuum insulated panel (VIP) system. Storage at room temperature is recommended.

Maintenance

L

What if my Cool Cube™ case gets dirty?

With the two smaller models the fabric case can be hand-washed and air-dried. With the hard-sided models the case can be wiped down.

Pack Out

l

What is a VIP Panel?

Vacuum Insulation Panel – a form of thermal insulation consisting of a gas-tight enclosure surrounding a rigid core, from which the air has been evacuated.
l

Are all of the PCM panels necessary for use? 

No, but all six panels will maintain a consistent temperature the longest. The fewer the panels, the shorter the temperature holding time.
l

Are gel packs needed?

No. The PCM panels are replacements superior to the standard gel pack method of cooling.
l

Are ice packs needed?

No. The PCM panels are replacements superior to the standard ice pack method of cooling.
l

Is electricity needed?

Not during use. But during storage/conditioning, electricity may be needed to maintain condition the panels properly.
l

Can a Cool Cube™ be locked?

Yes. The large cooler can be locked with a small, steel padlock. The small and medium coolers have double zippers that can be fastened together with a small, cable padlock.
l

Can a Cool Cube™ hold two different products at the same time? 

Yes, if they have the same temperature parameters. No, if they require two different parameters.
l

Can the same Cool Cube™ be used to hold different temperature parameters?

Yes, just not at the same time. Temperature controlling panels (the PCM System) can be purchased separately and swapped out depending on use.
l

Is there anything needed for pack-out?

No. Although it is recommended to have a thermometer to monitor the temperature and some filler material (newspaper, bubble-wrap, etc.) to prevent contents from shifting.
l

Which panels hold what temperature?

The “series” and color codes are: Series 4 (blue tab) maintains a refrigerated temperature. Series 20M (black tab) maintains a frozen temperature. Series 22 (tan tab) maintains a room temperature.

Duties and Taxes

Taxes: United States & Canada
  • Calculated based on delivery location.
  • If $0.00 (Sales tax not collected) is apparent, either VeriCor doesn’t collect sales tax for that state or the order is identified as tax-exempt.
  • If tax-exempt, a valid tax exemption certificate is needed to process the order.
Brokerage: the fee associated with customs clearance for your inbound shipments.
  • Paid by the “Importer of Record” (customer) based on the value of the shipment to the designated broker.
  • Broker can be identified by the customer prior to shipment (so they use their own), otherwise FedEx will be the default broker.
  • There are ways to avoid broker fees, but there’s time and work involved (example).
