System, method and computer program product for monitoring temperature

摘要

According to one aspect of the present disclosure, a device and technique for monitoring temperature of an environment of a sensitive object is disclosed. The device includes a housing configured to be disposed within or affixed to a transport container for the object, a sensor coupled to the housing and configured to obtain a plurality of temperature readings, and monitor logic configured to compare the plurality of temperature readings to a temperature threshold. The device also includes counter logic configured to generate an excursion count indicating a quantity of time periods the temperature readings exceeded the temperature threshold, generate a consecutive count indicating a quantity of consecutive temperature readings exceeding the temperature threshold, and generate a cumulative count indicating a cumulative quantity of temperature readings exceeding the temperature threshold.

1. A temperature monitoring device, comprising:
a housing configured to be disposed within or affixed to a transport container; a sensor coupled to the housing and configured to obtain a plurality of temperature readings; monitor logic configured to compare the plurality of temperature readings to a temperature threshold; and counter logic configured to:
generate and display an excursion count indicating a quantity of excursion time periods the temperature readings exceeded the temperature threshold, the excursion count incremented in response to a series of temperature readings initially exceeding the temperature threshold;generate and display a consecutive count indicating a maximum quantity of consecutive temperature readings exceeding the temperature threshold based on a plurality of different excursion time periods; andgenerate and display a cumulative count indicating a cumulative quantity of temperature readings exceeding the temperature threshold based on the plurality of different excursion time periods.
