Yale’s Freezer Monitoring Service is a university wide service supported by the Health Sciences Information Services group. Its mission is to provide a freezer and cold room monitoring solution to the 4,000 plus freezer and cold rooms across the university.
This service will:
- Monitor Freezer and Cold Room Temperatures
- Monitor Door Open, Closed, and Ajar conditions
- Monitor Power in the room (if the sensor is plugged into the wall)
- Monitor the battery level of the sensor
- Sends alerts to people via e-mail and text
- Sends automatic report(s) on freezer/cold room sensor logs
This service is primarily intended to monitor the following devices at Yale:
- -80C, -30C, and -20C Freezers
- Liquid Nitrogen/Dewar Freezers
- Cold Rooms
This service is currently in the piloting phase with an expected University-wide rollout this spring.
