 TIC20 20 Day Transit Pharmaceutical Temperature 

Indicator has been designed for use 

in applications where temperature & time statistics are monitored in pharmaceutical transports of up to 
20 days duration. 

The Indicator allows viewing key transit data on its built-in display, including statistics of readings that 
meet or exceed pre-specified alarm limits. This allows a shipment pass/fail decision to be made 
without the need for any other device such as a computer or printer. The display can be photocopied 
if a record is required. The indicator can be downloaded if required via the free LogTag Analyzer 
companion software and the TICT/TIC20 interface. 

 

 

Two push buttons allow starting and stopping the Indicator and can also be used to navigate the 
various display screens.
