Monitoring temperature during horse transport with Bluetooth data loggers

Temperature monitoring during long transport of animals is a legal requirement in Belgium. It is therefore crucial to monitor the temperature during the transport of horses. Too high or too low temperatures can not only affect the welfare of the horses but also endanger their safety. Fortunately, modern technology offers a solution: with aBluetooth data loggerand anAndroid appthe driver can monitor the temperature in real-time.

New Nordic Horses and Veterinarian Housen BV opted for the reliable solutions from Tempro. They chose theEfento Bluetooth Logger, this is easily placed in the trailer or transport vehicle. This logger continuously measures the temperature and sends the data via Bluetooth to the app on the driver's smartphone. ThisBluetooth Loggercan be easily set up to issue analarmas soon as the temperature goes outside the safe limits.

Other measurement parameters

In addition to temperature data loggers, there are also other data loggers that can monitor other parameters, such as relative humidity (RH) and CO2 levels. This provides extra assurance that the transport conditions remain optimal, not only for animals but also for other sensitive goods such as medicines.

This technology enables quick responses to changes and offers extra peace of mind during transport. Are you interested in using this solution for your transport? Please contact us for more information!
