Temperature, relative humidity, carbon dioxide, pressure, etc. Logging intervals, delays, thresholds and alarms as you wish - Efficiency
Saves time; is more precise and reliable. Alarm in the event of any deviations and history saved electronically
COOLGUARD – FOR THE KITCHEN
- Web-based system
The system is web-based, and operation, backup, virus protection, etc., are always included - Automatic temperature logging
Coolguard automatically logs the temperature in your refrigerator and freezer. You set the measurement frequency and alarm thresholds using the web service - Designed for touchscreens
Coolguard works extremely well with touchscreen devices such as smartphones, tablets and touchscreen PCs - Template management
Template management for control points enables the simple management of many operations and standardisation of your internal controls. - Scalable
By splitting operations into groups, those of you who have many operations spread over a large area can use Coolguard to your advantage.
On the other hand, a lack of regard to safety and quality may have serious consequences. The worst-case scenario would be a customer or guest falling ill because of the food. However, even if people do not fall ill, the reputation of the business may be at stake. In major multi-operational organisations – such as municipalities, county councils, and restaurant and hotel chains – challenges may also arise in the maintenance, updating and distribution of internal controls.
Coolguard gives you control and a temperature overview, as well as internal controls and alarms, allowing for simple management of all your operations.
Read more about the kitchen challenge and about how Coolguard can help.
The system manages the flow of tasks generated from the control points in your food safety program and keeps track of temperatures from your refrigerators and freezers.
With the handset, you can easily control the temperature of the incoming goods and ensure that the cold chain is not broken

Our work with HACCP and temperature logging has been made considerably easier by using CoolGuard
“Thanks to continuous log with Boomerang and alarms via text message/SMS, one of our pharmacies were able to save the whole inventory when a refrigerated storage room broke down last week. Great! “.
After installing the Boomerang system, we have a good overview of our culture conditions in the IVF laboratory. We feel confident about our incubators temperature and CO2 concentration, and that frozen semen and embryos are kept at correct temperature in our LN2-tanks. We have a full overview of the entire system via the CCP status display in the lab, and we get SMS on deviations when we’re not at work. Moreover, all measurements are stored in the Boomerang database for full traceability, so we can easily go back and check previous measurements if we want to.
