Can DegreeGuard track temperatures even during power outages?
Yes! The wireless temperature sensors will continue to record temperatures for up to 12 hours even if the DegreeGuard Monitor losses power. Once power is restored, the temperature data will be sent from the sensor and viewable on the website. If you are concerned about tracking temperatures for outages that are longer than 12 hours, we suggest you plug the DegreeGuard Monitor into a low-cost UPS available at most electronics and office supply stores. Even a small 300VA UPS will power the entire system for several days, ensuring that you have uninterrupted records of your critical storage temperatures. Be sure that you plug the DegreeGuard Monitor into the port that is battery powered as many of these devices have some plugs that are not on battery backup – but only provide voltage spike protection.
