The data loggers can be used for various application within the life scrunch and food and beverage industries.
When used with our Temperature Thermocouple Sensor, the following application(s) are covered:
Temperature Range of
-50 to +62 °C
Live Data Option Available
Interchangeable Sensor Design
TrackSense Pro Wireless Data Logger
Temperature Thermocouple Sensor
Ellab’s unique Temperature Thermocouple Sensor (TC Sensor) now allows users worldwide to use thermocouples in conjunction with wireless data loggers. The sensor has a temperature range of -50 to +62 °C. The Temperature Thermocouple Sensor is especially designed for applications that cause a lot of strain on sensors and require as little impact on samples as possible. A good example of said applications would be Lyophilization, also known as Freeze-drying.
The TrackSense Pro data logger series are equipped with an Interchangeable sensor option, unlocking several measuring parameters:
✓ Temperature
✓ Pressure
✓ Conductivity
✓ Relative humidity
✓ Vacuum
✓ Steam Penetration
The data loggers can easily be activated and read by the Multi reader station and combined with the Sky module for real time data via wireless communication.
Thermocouple Wire
The thin thermocouple wire itself has a temperature range of -196 to + 200 °C and is equipped with a “naked tip” that takes up next to no room within a sample and provides users with a faster response time. In addition to this, the wire comes in 10, 30, 50 and 100 cm lengths (30 cm standard), offering an additional layer of versatility. The data logger in combination with the mounted sensor has a temperature range of -50 to +62 °C and is calibrated from -60 to +60 °C with a state of the art accuracy of ±0.3 °C.
Increased Temperature Range
When keeping the data logger at ambient temperature, it is also possible to insert a wired sensor into other applications that require a wider temperature range. By using standard type T thermocouple sensors in various materials and lengths, the highly versatile Temperature Thermocouple Sensor can cover a temperature range of -50 to +400 °C.
Replace Thermocouple Sensors with Ease
The feature that makes this sensor highly unique, is the ability to have the thermocouple wire replaced via a screw terminal after a prolonged series of use. Typically, if wires get strained through rough handling or immensely demanding applications, the entire sensor head would have to be replaced – now with the Temperature Thermocouple Sensor, bundles of thermocouple wires can easily be acquired through Ellab and replace the single damaged wire, resulting in a far more cost-efficient process.

Suitable Applications
Life Science
Lyophilization
Freeze drying (or lyophilization) is a technique used to remove water from a solution to leave behind a more stable ‘dry product’. This technique involves freezing the product on a shelf using extremely low temperatures, applying a vacuum and then slowly heating the product to ensure the ice turns into vapor in order to remove the water content.
The critical parameters for this process are temperature (product and shelf) and pressure/Vacuum.
Food and Beverages
UHT and HTST Pasteurization
UHT and HTST Pasteurization are highly regulated thermal processes that revolve around sterilizing liquid products (typically food) prior to packaging. The goal of the thermal process is to sterilize foods and beverages such as milk, juice, dressing and yogurt, while ensuring that they keep their sensory appeal and become shelf-stable products.
