Monitoring
An external monitoring system provides continuous electronic recording of the freezer temperature. These readings are transferred to Cryo-store's server system on a daily basis. The probes run on mains power but also have their own power supply in the event of a failure.
A power monitoring system continuously checks the mains supply and the emergency generator will provide back up power to the storage units. In the event of a power failure, the alarm system will activate.
Secondary monitoring, smoothing, cleaning and emergency supply is provided by the UPS system connected to the computer network. All inventory and temperature data is securely archived in several formats.
