Description

The microDL is a revolutionary multi-use programmable data logger for displaying and recording temperatures for shipping and storage applications. Now all of your critical biologics, cancer drugs and vaccines can be immediately temperature qualified with our display technologies. Small, yet so powerful, this investigative temperature-collecting device is your answer for regulatory compliance.

The compact, coin-sized unit with the external thermistor probe gives you on-the-spot verification that the internal temperatures of your packaged contents meet specifications prior to acceptance of your shipment. Our digital display technology  allows research laboratories and physicians to immediately validate temperature information for clinical studies and patient administration.

Flexible: Press the start button to display the following information, whether or not the logger is recording: Current Temperature, Elapsed Time in Days, MKT(Mean Kinetic Temperature), High Temperature, Low Temperature, Alarm Time over High Temperature, Alarm Time Below Low Temperature, and Alarm Conditions.

Customizable settings include: Delay to Start, Stop, Elapsed Time as well as customizable sampling time intervals. Also available: User Descriptions for initialization and for downloading the data.

Visual Alarms: All our data loggers have the ability to program alarm limits. Should the temperature reach levels outside these limits, the digital display will show a notice until reset by the user. Alarm conditions can be programmed for start/delay, high/low, continuous or cumulative time over alarm. Push the start button to view critical temperature information anytime.

Many configurations are available: Choose from 8K, 32K or 64K memory size (which determines the maximum number of data points) and the temperature range to record (temperature ranges from -10C to +72C down to -200C to -100C). Then decide on the style. Choose one without a probe, or with a stainless steel, flat ribbon, teflon coated, or detachable probe. Single-use disposables are also available.
Tell us what you need and we will assemble a configuration to suit your needs.

Computer Ready: The microDL is a state-of-the-art, water-resistant data logger with non-volatile memory for data retention. For a complete analytical solution, simply download all of its data to your PC with the proprietary microDL USB Reader and Marathon’s easy-to-use MDAS-Pro software. Compatible with Microsoft Windows XP, Vista and 7, 8 & 10. 21CFR compliant software is available with full database capabilities.

MDAS-Pro Software

Centralized Monitoring:

Our MDAS-Pro software is the ideal solution for managing and analyzing data from multiple data loggers from multiple locations. With IP Address access MDAS-Pro is location independent so data loggers located anywhere can be centrally monitored and managed.

Marathon’s Data Analysis Software (MDAS) allows you to view up to 16 multiple traces at one time, enables you to transfer the information recorded in the logger to your computer, and to view, print and generate a report of the measurement data. The graphic representations include rotating 3D views, unlimited zooms, view temperature data points on the graph, view the total elapsed time or the exact time when it was recorded.

The graph and all data points (date, time and temperature) can be printed, as well as the ability to add a Note to the file for including information pertinent to that graphic trace. Users have the ability to view the numeric data within a screen window, calculate the Mean Kinetic Temperature of the recording as well as export data in a CSV format. A summary report showing the Start and Stop Time, High, Low, Median and Average temperatures as well as the Alarm information is also displayed. The data from the logger is downloaded to your PC via our proprietary RS232 serial interface cable or USB interface.

MDAS-Pro offers language support for English, French, German, Portuguese and Spanish. A separate installation program for Chinese and Japanese is also available on the CD-ROM with this version of the software. The software has been designed for the Microsoft operating system platforms and is compatible with Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8 and 10.
