Thermal Validation Solutions for pharmaceutical, Food, …

 

The TrackSense® wireless data loggers are the most complete validation solution available today. With a wide range of measuring parameters, Ellab’s data loggers are ideal for most applications.

Ellab has incorporated the latest in electronic technology and innovation to deliver a wireless multi channel data logger that is unmatched in accuracy, performance, and versatility.

TrackSense® Pro Logger

• Each logger has multiple channels for recording data with a memory capacity of up to 120,000 data points. The state of the art technology allows for variable sample rates. A logger can be programmed to auto start or increase the sample rate at a specific time or temperature. The logger is made of AISI 316L stainless steel and the electronics are sealed in heat and moisture resistant material. The Pro logger is designed for adaptation of interchangeable sensors and all loggers have user replaceable batteries and are ATEX certified. The ATEX temperature range for each logger can be found on the certificate.

Accuracy
The incorporation of state of the art technology and extensive testing has resulted in outstanding performances:
• Temperature: ±0.05 °C
• Humidity: ±2%
• Pressure: ±0.25% full scale
• Time: ±5 sec. per 24 hours
• Conductivity: ±1 μS/cm
• CO2: ±0.2%
• Vacuum: ±10-50% of reading

Performance

• The TrackSense Pro X/XL loggers are designed to operate under extreme conditions without ever losing valuable data. They operate in temperatures from -80 to +150°C and can withstand pressure up to 10 Bar fully immersed.
  When keeping the Pro X/XL logger outside and using a flexible sensor inside the process you can extend the measuring range down to -196°C. When using at thermal barrier and a logger with high temperature sensor the measuring range is extended up to +400°C. The nonvolatile memory stores up to 120,000 data points and it is possible to have up to 160 data loggers in one validation study.

Versatility

• With the unique feature of interchangeable sensors it is possible to configure the logger for any specific application by mounting different interchangeable sensors and, if required, an RF module for online data collection. This unique feature is highly beneficial when it comes to flexibility and lowered operation costs.

 

 

Multi Reader Station

• Starting up and reading loggers can now be performed within seconds. 16 loggers can be started or read simultaneously, saving time, especially when 160 data loggers have to be started for one study.

Single Reader Station

• When only a few loggers are needed, a single reader station can be used. Available for all types of loggers.

 

Sky Module

• The Sky module contains all the necessary components for wireless online communication between the logger and the Sky Access Point.
• The standard Sky module comes with an internal antenna. Should communication stop, data will be stored in the logger for transmission once communication has been restored or the logger has been returned to the reader station. No data will ever be lost or corrupted due to loss of wireless communication. The sky module is ATEX certified for use in environments such as EtO processes.

 

Sky Access Point

• The Sky Access Point offers many advantages over standard wireless Access Points. The proprietary wireless protocol significantly reduces battery consumption in the data logger. All other wireless equipment is rejected by the Sky Access Point, greatly improving transmission success and security. A channel test function is available to eliminate data interference. The Sky Access Point comes with a standard antenna, but optional remote antennas are available for more difficult transmission environments. To cover larger areas or longer distances, multiple Access Points can be operated simultaneously.

Interchangeable Sensors

• Ellab offers the largest range of different sensors with 1, 2 or 4 channels. The sensors are interchangeable, enabling the user to choose sensors for different applications.
  This reduces costs as one set of TrackSense Pro loggers can be used for temperature, CO2, humidity, pressure and conductivity studies. All sensors (except quad sensors) are compatible with a Sky option to provide live data. The temperature sensors can be delivered in rigid, semi flexible and flexible material for ease of use. Rigid sensors are available with or without LED that shows the status of the logger. An active logger is identified by the light flashing green. This feature makes it easier to start larger groups of loggers and helps to avoid the use of non programmed loggers.
  In the case of an LED sensor being used in combination with a Sky module, the LED will also confirm communication status.

Extreme Temperature Sensors

• The standard temperature range goes up to +150 °C, but it is possible to order sensors which can measure down to -196 °C or up to +400 °C. The logger has to be placed outside of the environment when measuring at -80 °C to -196 °C. When measuring from +150 °C up to +400 °C, a thermal barrier is required to protect the battery. The principle is to insulate the logger keeping the battery temperature below +150 °C.

 

Custom Fittings

• Packing glands and other fittings are available for placing loggers and inserting sensors into any variety of packaging material. The glands are threaded to accept sensors and will maintain the seal when pressurized. It is very important that sensors are placed correctly in the “cold/hot zone” to obtain true lethality values. 

 

 

ValSuite® Validation Software

 

• The ideal solution for any thermal validation process
• The FDA 21 CFR Part 11 compliant ValSuite® software is at the core of everything that Ellab offers. ValSuite will keep your process running smoothly and guard your data to secure its integrity. ValSuite® collects and presents validation data from the E-Val™ Pro and TrackSense® Pro data logging systems. The software can run up to 160 TrackSense channels or 120 E-Val Pro channels at a time.
• ValSuite offers features like customized reports with clear pass/fail criteria, test templates, data analysis, monitoring, live data and much more. ValSuite is developed according to GAMP principles and is available in multiple languages for Windows 7, 8 and 10 (32/64-Bit). ValSuite is availabe in four generic versions: ValSuite Basic, ValSuite Medical, ValSuite Plus and ValSuite Pro.
