The University of Canberra purchased thirty two (32) MicroLogs to monitor the temperature in three (3) cold rooms, eight (8) -80°C temperature freezers and twenty one (21) -30°C all containing valuable research and reference material. Initial concerncs about the possibility of wireless transmission across four floors and two wings of a steel and concrete slab building proved unfounded. By careful placement of two repeater units, the MicroLog successfully monitors the temperatures 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. We have linked the monitoring system to our Duty Officers mobile phone and in the last 12 months have had early warning of two cold room failures. We estimate this has saved us about $25,000 in replacement of damaged reagents and other materials.
