Pointer Telocation has released a temperature sensor for fleets transporting refrigerated items, giving managers consistent updates on the temperature of their cooled items, the company said.

The sensor connects to Pointer Telocation’s Cellocator Compact Fleet unit, which features location, tracking, event-driven reporting, logging, and security capabilities to give fleet managers the current temperature of their items on every location update, alerting them on breached thresholds and other application layer activities.

“In order to address the needs of fleet managers in the refrigerated tracking industry, especially when goods are being transported over long distances, it is vital that they have the technology to monitor the necessary heat environment for their items,” said Israel Ronn, gm of the Cellocator products division of Pointer Telocation. “The new temperature sensor will keep them always updated as to the temperature of their goods, in order to maintain maximum refrigeration efficiency.”
