Fridge temperature monitoring system for Veterinary practices
RemoteM for veterinary temperature monitoring
Current regulations demand that veterinary medicinal products (VMPs) requiring refrigeration, such as vaccines, some antibiotics and insulin, must be stored in a refrigerator at between 2°C and 8°C. The same regulations also stipulate that temperatures should be monitored and logged at least daily. RemoteM provides a reliable and robust solution which is inexpensive and easy to install.
RemoteM is a wireless fridge temperature monitoring system developed to match veterinary practice requirements, enabling users to comply with all medicine storage requirements. It eliminates the potential for compromising the safety of such medicines and the resultant costly waste and disruption.
RemoteM provides a totally automated veterinary temperature monitoring solution, eliminating the requirement for manual checks and data loggers, and making it easy for veterinary practices to comply with RCVS Practice Standards Scheme (PSS) requirements.

How RemoteM works
The sensing device is placed inside the refrigerator, freezer or other relevant location that is to be monitored. It maintains a constant record, logging temperature data at regular intervals 24 hours a day, seven days a week, sending this to the cloud via a base station.
Data is then available in real time on the cloud platform, allowing users to access and analyse this remotely. The system generates immediate SMS, email and voice call notifications in the event of issues and power outages that may put valuable stock at risk.
- RemoteM supports portable communication for stock in transit
- Most non-refrigerated medicines must be stored at less than 25°C; RemoteM system parameters can be set to match any application, including monitoring temperatures in ambient areas where medicines are stored
- RemoteM can be used to monitor stock in transit, ensuring vaccines and other vulnerable medicines are maintained under cold chain conditions during transportation (for example, providing temperature monitoring of vet's cars)
Key points
- RemoteM ensures medicines, vaccines and tissue samples are kept within the range specified in the Summary of Product Characteristics (SPC) (+2 to +8 °C, +15 to +25 °C)
- RemoteM provides alerts if the power fails and keeps logging temperature throughout
- Most non-refrigerated medicines must be stored at less than 25°C; RemoteM system parameters can be set to match any application, including monitoring temperatures in ambient areas where medicines are stored
- RemoteM is easy to install, requiring no cabling
- It does not rely on the practice's Internet connection / WiFi
- Internal battery backup - does not rely on mains power supply
- Temperature records from different practices can be viewed and reported upon from single (or multiple) devices
- The online dashboard allows data to be exported as PDF reports or to Excel
- Reports can be generated automatically in advance of RCVS inspections and Practice Standards Scheme (PSS) assessments
- The online dashboard indicates how long vaccines / drugs have been out of specified temperature range, enabling accurate decisions to be made regarding disposal
- RemoteM can be used to monitor fridges, freezers, cold rooms, ambient storage, kennels, operating theatres and more
- The system can be used to monitor stock in transit, ensuring vaccines and other vulnerable medicines are maintained under cold chain conditions during transportation
