Description

Temperature Monitoring With Touch Screen

The FridgeAlert™ has been purpose-built for monitoring fridge and freezer systems. Offering smart monitoring to avoid false alarms and complete with battery backup to continue logging temperature data while alerting of any power outages. FridgeAlert is easy to set up and features a large touchscreen display for at-a-glance information.

  • 3.5″ Touchscreen Display
  • Up to 10 Temperature Sensors
  • 1 Digital Input

Smart Alert Notifications

Smart Alerts are perfect for typical issues in fridge/freezer monitoring:

  • Eliminate false alarms with highly customizable alert triggers
  • Custom-fit each alert to your fridge/freezer model and defrost cycle
  • Program exceptions for known restocking event periods
  • Save technician time

Avoid false alerts and make sure you’re only notified when there is a real concern. The FridgeAlert uses user-programmable temperature thresholds and timed delays to eliminate false alarms and quickly alert technicians as soon as a valid problem is identified.
