CAREL and Desmon, a successful synergy for storing medicines and vaccines
The Company, leader in the production of refrigerated equipment for the medical and food service sectors, has chosen CAREL’s iJS for maximum reliability.
Desmon, a European reference in the production of professional refrigerated equipment for the medical and food service sectors, has chosen CAREL as a partner for its latest refrigerated cabinet intended for scientific and medical applications. Desmon’s needs are fully met by iJS, the new CAREL control solution part of the iJ platform: temperature recording, dedicated alarms, connectivity, battery backup module and extensive certification possibilities.
The Desmon range of professional refrigerators is specifically designed to guarantee the correct storage conditions for healthcare products, heat-sensitive biological materials and all types of medicines, based on the specifications of the pharmaceutical companies. These types of refrigeration units are usually installed in pharmacies, drug stores and hospitals. The scientific applications addressed by Desmon specifically require the refrigeration units to be equipped with components to make them highly reliable and able to record product storage temperatures.
Indeed, the regulations in force for scientific/medical applications require monitoring and recording of the minimum and maximum temperatures reached by the refrigeration unit: this is necessary to ensure that, even in the event of a power outage (blackout), the products continue to be stored in an optimal range.
iJS’s main features:
- Temperature recording and dedicated alarms: In scientific applications, to ensure the contents of the refrigeration units are stored in the specified conditions, it is crucial to record and report all situations in which the temperature is outside of the compliance limits, so as to have full control of any abnormal situations. To simplify operations as much as possible, iJS comes with a dedicated keypad that allows the operator to intuitively record temperatures.
- Battery backup module to ensure operation even during blackouts: iJS connects to a backup battery management module in the event of power outages. Direct connection to the battery avoids the need to use a mini UPS. The aim is to be able to continue to monitor the temperature inside the cabinets.
- Connectivity and reports via app: With the new iJS range, users can also interact using a dedicated app, via local NFC and Bluetooth® connectivity. CAREL offers the APPLICA app for technical personnel responsible for maintenance and commissioning; the CONTROLLA app for end users, who can view and download temperature reports to ensure maximum data traceability.
- Certifications: The iJ platform, including iJS, was developed with all major product certifications for the European and American markets, specifically CE and UL certification. The iJ platform also comes with a CB Report, a document that simplifies certification at a more local level. Finally, compatibility is guaranteed in applications that use flammable refrigerants, by compliance with the IEC/EN/UL 60335 standard.
CAREL, in collaboration with Desmon, has once again demonstrated expertise and a spirit of innovation in the scientific market, through the adoption of the most innovative technologies, standing out for the high reliability of its products, so as to best support customers, and proving to be a strategic partner for the technological proposals offered.
