Humidity refers to the amount of water vapor present in the air, and it can have a significant impact on the comfort, health, and productivity of building occupants. Proper humidity control and monitoring can also improve energy efficiency, reduce maintenance costs, and prolong the lifespan of equipment. One of the most effective tools for monitoring humidity levels is a hygrometer. In this blog article, we will discuss the importance of humidity control and monitoring in commercial buildings, and how a hygrometer can be used to measure and monitor humidity and temperature levels. Importance of Humidity Control and Monitoring in Commercial...

    Temperature plays a crucial role in medical care (both humans and animals), food, beverages, and agriculture. Our overall health is often reliant upon temperature in many ways as well. Maintaining proper temperature levels in medical cold storage areas is critical.  Incorrect temperatures can compromise the medications or vaccines stored in medical refrigerators. High temperature and high humidity are the two most important factors in drug degradation. When exposed to these conditions, the medications can weaken. Moreover, you can face fines or penalties if your medical refrigerators are not performing properly. The CDC conducted a study that highlighted the improper storage and handling of vaccines. Unfortunately, 76...

Sper Scientific is excited to announce the launch of the HACCP Thermometer- 800042. This thermometer is designed specifically for the food safety industry in compliance with HACCP principles. The thermometer offers a wide temperature range and high degree of accuracy. Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) is a management system in which food safety is addressed through the analysis and control of biological, chemical, and physical hazards from raw material production, procurement and handling, to manufacturing, distribution and consumption of the finished product. HACCP itself was conceived in the 1960s when the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) asked...

Temperature is defined as the degree of hotness or coldness, as measured on a definite scale. Three temperature scales are in general use today: The Fahrenheit (°F) temperature scale is used in the United States and a few other English-speaking countries. The Celsius (°C) temperature scale is standard in virtually all countries that have adopted the metric system of measurement, and it is widely used in the sciences. The Kelvin (K) scale, an absolute temperature scale (obtained by shifting the Celsius scale by −273.15° so that absolute zero coincides with 0 K), is recognized as the international standard for scientific temperature...
