Elitech Digital Temperature Humidity Data Logger Pharmacy DDL with Calibration Certificate to Auditor, Refrigerator Thermometer Vaccine Fridge Temperature Monitor Max Min Value GSP-6

Just received and have not tested yet but so far seems to a excellent buy. Soft ware is very logical and down loads easily.

We have been having problems with excess water build up and overflow in the drip pan of our Sub-Zero refrigerator. The heater that is supposed to evaporate the water doesn't seem to be working properly despite multiple repairs. But how do I prove it isn't working correctly?Enter the Elitech Data Logger GSP-6. I set it to record temperature at 1 minute intervals. I now have a clear graph of a week's worth of data showing how the temperature of the water in the drip pan cycles between 72 and 82 degrees every few hours, which is not enough to evaporate the water. A senior service tech is now scheduled, based on this data. Finger crossed.This device is a quarter the price of other brands of data loggers that I looked at. The software is perfectly serviceable (I'm on a Mac). I was a little unsure how to set some things up, but trial and error and poking around on the desktop app were enough, along with other users' comments in reviews. There are a lot of features in the "Parameters" tab so you can really customize how this thing works. It is super easy to unplug the unit from the sensor cable and plug it in to my Mac via USB to download the data. The re-connect the unit to the sensor cable to continue collecting more data.Some people complain that the English translation of the manual isn't that great. It's not, but you know what - who cares? At least Elitech does provide written documentation, unlike many companies today who give you a scrap of paper with a few pictograms to scratch your head to. I struggled with some of the wording, like "to start press the button until the light flashes out." What is flashes out? But once I figured out what they meant by "flashes out" I started used that expression myself.Altogether, this is a very reasonably priced product that is a must-have if you need to monitor temperature and want to download a graph and data of the results. Be prepared to put on your thinking cap to figure out the software, but it is worth a bit of effort. I haven't used the humidity sensor yet but it could be handy some day. For now I'm keeping the humidity sensor in the surprisingly nice box that the data logger is packaged in. The box is a high quality you don't see much of today and even has a nice magnetic closing flap.

I'm impressed with this little data logger. I've used it to confirm cooling and defrost cycles in my fridge/freezer, to figure out a humidifier problem with my heat exchanger, and check the temperatures in my little wine cellar. I also had a look at how our home's termperatures climb in the morning and fall in the evening, which helped me to properly set up our thermostat. The display is very easy to read and the one-button control works well to start logging data.I love that the temperature and humidity sensors are external. This allows me to place the sensors inside a cavity and still read the display while it's sampling data.The Windows-based software that I had to download from their site works well. It seems to have everything I need, including a graph of the samples data that includes just temperature, just humidity, or both.I didn't give it five stars because the software could use some cleaning up. It's clearly written by a Chinese dude, so there are a few spelling mistakes. But more importantly, there are a few oddities. When I exported data to excel, the data is in text form rather than number form. So in excel, when I tried to create a chart, excel was not happy. I had to play around and convert various cells to the proper formats. Also, the only way I can figure out to clear old data and start a new sample is to change a value in the parameter setup. There is probably a more direct way, but I haven't found it.If the software UI were cleaned up a little bit, I'd give this product a 5 star rating.

Despite claiming that they meet VFC/CDC standards, in multiple location on this product page; this thermometer/data logger does not in fact meet those standard. I cannot attest to how it works at all because as soon as I opened the first box, I realized that the device cannot be used. The calibration certificate of this data logger is not NIST traceable. I was hoping that it would have that certification on the second or third page of the certificate; unfortunately, no such luck. Had to return the units right away.If you have an existing acceptable data logger for VFC; look into the recalibration program facilitated by the manufacturer. For us this option turned out to be just as economical, if not slightly better value. Further, it does not require any new software or changes in user interface.

Very good value for money. The application is very easy to use. It comes with calibration and calibration certificate.

👍

Seems to work well. Very poor operating instruction though. Can't figure out how to change form C to F.
