Nonreversible Reusable Temperature Indicating Devices For 6°, 8°, and 10°C Transport and Storage Container Monitoring

Ideal for Blood Products, Plasma, Biologicals, Specimens, Vaccines, and Other Items Requiring Transport and Storage in a Controlled Temperature Environment

TRANS-VUE is a round, state-of-the-art, two-part temperature monitor that consists of a reusable device containing a replaceable temperature indicator. The indicator changes color from white to red when the safe temperature of the sensitive items being monitored by TRANS-VUE has been reached or exceeded. As long as the indicator remains white, the integrity of the shipment is in compliance with the prescribed temperature during transportation and storage.

TRANS-VUE is easily placed among items in a transport container to maintain quality control and accountability of the item or items being transported or stored.

  • Unique Design – reusable TRANS-VUE device maintains constant contact with the transport or storage environment

  • Easy Activation – continuously senses temperature

Temperature Monitoring Protects Shipment Integrity

TRANS-VUE reusable temperature indicators permit blood banks and laboratories to determine if temperature standards and regulations are being met by promoting requirements of accountability during transport.*

  • Indicates when temperature integrity of the shipment is in compliance – indicator remains white

  • Also indicates if temperature of item being monitored has been reached or exceeded – indicator turns red and cannot change back to white

TRANS-VUE reusable devices are packed 10 per box and replaceable temperature indicators are packed 50 per box and cases of 200. Each box is stamped with a lot number and expiration date. All shipments contain Q & A documentation and a validation procedure.
