S5 SCOUT/PLUS – TEMPERATURE

DATA SHEET

www.jtfwireless.com

The System5 series of Wireless temperature Scout and ScoutPlus transmitters are well established within the market as versatile temperature and humidity recorders and are used extensively in a number of industry sectors.

The Scout & ScoutPlus T are wireless transmitter components of the IceSpy system. The Scout has a single internal temperature sensor and the ScoutPlus has an internal temperature sensor and an external connector for a remote external sensor. The Scout & ScoutPlus transmitters are housed in an IP67 enclosure together with its own power source (battery), radio transmitter, real-time clock and data storage facilities.

The Scout & ScoutPlus comprises of a single PCB mounted within a custom plastic enclosure. The enclosure is ultrasonically welded to form a watertight enclosure. An external antenna is over moulded onto the plastic case. A waterproof connector is used for the external temperature sensors. A wall or shelf mounting fixture is provided as an integral part of the design. All communication such as upload of settings and download of data is via radio link and the ScoutPlus is in continual communication with other elements of the IceSpy System.

Blood monitoring – Simulant BlockThe S5-T-BLOCK is a core temperature simulant probe that meets British Standard 4376 as adopted by the MHRA for core temperature monitoring of blood plasma in hospital blood banks.

It is available in two sizes; 100ml water equivalent for Freezers and 200ml water equivalent for Fridges By fitting the S5-T-Block to an Scout-Plus-AirCore, simultaneous readings of both air and core temperature can be recorded, providing both alert and action alarms.

Advantages• Helps you meet MHRA standards for monitoring of core and air temperatures• Simulates core temperature of blood packs• Can also be used to simulate other food or pharmaceutical products• Polypropylene block easier to manage and clean than bottles of liquid• Easy to fit and relocate

Instrumentation SpecificationDimensions: 150mmx150mm, 12mm thickWeight: 241gramsCase Material: Food-grade polypropyleneIP Rating: IP67

Thermal capacity equivalent to 100ml or 200ml of water for compliance with BS4376.4 mounting holes for easy fitting.
