What is temperature mapping?
Temperature mapping for a specific area involves strategically placing data loggers throughout the location for a minimum of 24 hours. During this period, the loggers analyze temperature and humidity distribution, providing valuable insights. This process serves as a crucial tool for businesses, helping them identify irregularities and make necessary adjustments to their setup. Discrepancies can occur due to various factors such as malfunctioning HVAC systems, heat generated by electronics, and frequent opening and closing of doors.
Do you need temperature mapping?
Temperature mapping holds relevance in numerous situations and industries. At Buhl & Bønsøe, you will discover a wide range of high-quality electronic equipment tailored for this purpose. Mapping temperature with accredited and calibrated measuring devices is essential in various scenarios, including:

Temperature mapping is conducted to assess whether a storage area can maintain temperatures within specified limits. This is crucial, especially for storing sensitive items like medicines. Areas subject to temperature mapping include freezers, refrigerators, storage rooms, incubators, and so on.
Regarding temperature mapping, temperature sensors are strategically placed throughout the room to monitor adherence to specified values. Warehouses undergo detailed assessment, accounting for scenarios such as door openings (in freezers or refrigerators), power outages, ventilation issues, etc. This thorough evaluation ensures that the devices function correctly within predefined parameters. It also helps identify optimal locations for installing monitoring systems, such as the data logger system.
In the process of temperature mapping, temperatures are recorded and analyzed. It might be assumed that the temperature remains consistent throughout spaces like small freezers, large cold rooms, or storage areas. However, it is surprising to discover that temperature fluctuations up to 10°C can occur from one spot to another. Corners often have different temperatures compared to the center of the measured area. This variance is due to the natural tendency of cold air to descend and warm air to rise. Consequently, the temperature at the bottom of a cold room can significantly differ from that at the top.
The table shows common laboratory equipment and their limit values:
|
Limit value |
Temperature range |
-80C freezers for extremely low temperatures |
-80 oC |
-90 to -70 oC |
-40 oC freezers |
-40 oC |
-50 to -30 oC |
-20 oC freezers |
-20 oC |
-25 to -15 oC |
Refrigerators |
5 oC |
2 to 8 oC |
Incubators |
22,5 oC 32,5 oC 57,7 oC |
20 to 25 oC 30 to 35 oC 55 to 55 oC |
Initially, temperature set-points serve as a guide. However, if temperature mapping reveals a more optimal set-point within the range, adjustments can be made. For example, setting the temperature at 31.9°C instead of 32.5°C might ensure a more consistent temperature within the specified limits due to the location of the control probe.
During the risk assessment for temperature-controlled units like freezers, fridges, and incubators, the necessary tests should be determined. Some common examples of these tests include:
However, certain conditions prevent us from conducting specific tests, such as power failure and door-open tests, in some locations. Additionally, when there are temperature variations, several factors need to be taken into account. Any fluctuations must be considered during the temperature mapping process. Furthermore, temperature variations can also be influenced by seasonal changes.
It is important to place temperature sensors throughout the entire area intended for mapping. This comprehensive placement is essential to obtain a detailed overview, enabling the identification of cold and hot spots. It also helps in determining the precise locations for installing permanent temperature sensors.
The impact of a product hinges on its proper storage conditions. Fruits and vegetables stored at excessively low temperatures can freeze and suffer damage. Vaccines kept in a refrigerator might experience fluctuations in temperature, rendering the medicine ineffective if exposed to excessive heat or cold.
Maintaining adherence to limit values in all sections of the temperature-controlled unit ensures the preservation of product quality.
Temperature mapping and continuous temperature monitoring are essential aspects of storing both food and medicinal products. With our mapping services, you can be confident that your temperature-controlled areas are accurately assessed and monitored.
