Temperature logger
Several temperatures recorded simultaneously
Temperatures need to be measured frequently or even monitored permanently in many areas. In certain applications, it is not only necessary to measure the air temperature at one point, but to record several values simultaneously. This is the case in cold storage rooms, for example, where measurements are taken at two different points. Or in refrigerated vehicles, where air and product temperatures are measured. The testo 176 T2 temperature logger has been designed precisely for this purpose and can measure the temperature at different points using its two external probes. The testo model 176 T2 works for up to eight years with one set of batteries and is practically maintenance-free. At the same time, the device records and stores up to two million pieces of data.

Applications for your new temperature logger
Temperature data logger: Made for many applications
Temperature loggers are used wherever temperature data needs to be stored, and this data often needs to be recorded and stored over a very long period of time. In addition, it is sometimes necessary to measure the temperature at different points at the same time. The data logger performs this task reliably and safely and can even be used under extreme conditions, where it also works very accurately. Precise temperature sensors record the measured values, which are converted into temperature values and stored in the logger. Thanks to its robust housing, the temperature data logger is very suitable for use wherever high mechanical loads may be present.
Monitoring the temperature in cold stores
Monitoring temperatures in the food industry
Monitoring transport temperatures
Monitoring temperatures in storage rooms
Of course, it is not just a matter of recording the temperature data and the associated long-term monitoring of the data. These are also documented, which in turn enables the user to prove compliance with the cold chain or the required temperatures in the respective area retrospectively over a longer period of time. Temperature data loggers are installed in cold stores and warehouses wherever there are critical points for temperature changes. They can be found on windows and doors, where they monitor the temperature status. Because it is precisely at these points that changes occur quickly. If critical changes occur, countermeasures can be initiated immediately.
Temperature logger: Increasing product quality possible
What may seem paradoxical at first glance has proven to be true in practice: Temperature loggers can actually help to increase the quality of products. The reason for this is compliance with the cold chain or a constant storage temperature. If the data logger measures the temperature at regular intervals, deviations are immediately recognizable and appropriate countermeasures can be initiated. Without these modern aids, deviations are often only detected far too late and the previous storage temperatures turn out not to be product-friendly. In some cases, spoiled food can even be traced back to a failure to maintain the cold chain. A problem that can be prevented in many cases with the temperature logger.
To be able to really monitor and document temperatures, you don't just need a thermometer that is read regularly. The error rate is too high and there are too many sources of error. The temperature logger avoids these, measuring temperatures regularly and at various points. Reading errors and errors during evaluation are thus kept to a minimum or are no longer present.
Testo temperature loggers: The whole world of temperature monitoring
The Testo family includes the following temperature loggers:
Testo 184 T2 for monitoring transportation
Testo 174 H for simultaneous temperature and humidity measurement
Testo 174 T for continuous monitoring of storage temperatures
Testo 176 T4 for simultaneous measurement at four locations
This list represents only a small selection of the members of the Testo data loggers that are available for recording, monitoring and evaluating temperatures. They differ, among other things, in the number of simultaneous measurements.

USB data logger: data transport made easy
Just as easily as the temperature loggers collect and store measurement data, they can also be analyzed. Transmission via USB or in some cases via SD card (depending on the model) is required for evaluation.
There are various software programs available for the PC that help to analyze the data and can be used with different levels of performance.
The USB cable required for the temperature logger is not included in the scope of delivery and can be purchased as an optional accessory. It can be used to evaluate the measurement data on the computer and to program the temperature logger from the PC. The following three pieces of software can be used for this purpose:
ComSoft Basic: free of charge and suitable for simple data analysis
ComSoft Professional: to be purchased additionally, for detailed data analysis
ComSoft CFR 21 Part 11: to be purchased additionally, a validation-capable software for special evaluations in the pharmaceutical sector
