Vaccine Fridge Monitoring for Pharmacies & Clinics

One fridge failure can ruin $50,000 in vaccines. We stop that.

EDGE monitors your pharmacy fridges 24/7.

It connects directly to the cloud using your WiFi or cellular network, so there are no complicated gateways to set up. Get instant phone calls, texts, or emails if temperatures drift. It automatically logs your data to keep you audit-ready with zero paperwork. No monthly fee on WiFi models; cellular models include the first year, then about $26.67/yr (about $2.22/mo), billed annually.

Encrypted, Gateway-Free

Encrypted data goes straight from each device to the MaxLinc cloud. No untrusted local network bridges.

NIST-Traceable Probes

Every probe ships with a NIST-traceable calibration certificate. Need multi-point calibration or an accredited lab certificate? Ask us before you order.

Automated Auditing

Pull time-stamped PDF excursion reports (timestamps, duration and corrective-action fields) from your dashboard, built to support Health Canada GUI-0069 record keeping and FDA 21 CFR Part 11 audit trails. Advanced reports are part of Premium (first year included).

Connectivity & Redundancy

Uninterrupted data supports GxP record keeping. Choose WiFi or cellular connectivity; every unit runs on 4 x AA batteries, with optional USB-C power.

W

WiFi & Cellular (LTE)

Standard units use facility WiFi. Cellular variants use global eSIMs to ensure a connection even during power and network outages.

⚡

Uninterrupted Power Systems

Run on optional USB-C power with automatic rollover to 4 x AA batteries, so logging continues through a blackout. When USB-C power drops, the device sends a power-outage alert by push, email and text at its next recording, within minutes (a WiFi model only while your router and internet still have power) - and because the Cellular model never relies on your WiFi, it keeps reporting even if the building's network goes down with it.

NIST-Traceable

NIST Certificates, Without the Recalibration Bill

Every probe carries a NIST-traceable certificate valid 3 years in use (5 years on the shelf) - when it runs out, you swap in a low-cost probe instead of paying for lab recalibration.

  • 3-Year NIST-Traceable Certificate

    Every external probe ships with a NIST-traceable certificate, valid 3 years in use (5 years on the shelf), and the probe stays right in the fridge with the device.

  • Automatic Expiry Alerts

    The MaxLinc cloud tracks each certificate's date and emails you well before it expires - no spreadsheets, no missed renewals.

  • Download & Verify Anywhere

    Download the certificate as a PDF any time, or scan its QR code to look it up online - ready to hand an auditor on the spot.

  • 30-Second Probe Swap, Not Recalibration

    When the period ends, skip the expensive lab recalibration. Snap in a new low-cost probe with a fresh certificate in 30 seconds - no shipping to a lab, no replacing the whole logger.

A NIST certificate shows the reading is right. 21 CFR Part 11 asks a different question: is the record trustworthy, meaning attributed, time-stamped and protected from silent editing? See what a 21 CFR Part 11 data logger can and cannot provide.

The Recommended Architecture for Pharma & Cleanrooms

We have pre-configured the perfect hardware stack to solve your operational bottlenecks immediately. Whether you manage 2 fridges or 20 across multiple pharmacy locations, a single cloud dashboard gives you full visibility.

  • ✔ Deploy EDGE Pharma on vaccine and medication fridges
  • ✔ Add EDGE Essential for ambient rooms and storage
  • ✔ Connect every unit to the MaxLinc cloud, on one dashboard
Architecture
Vaccine Safe

Vaccine Fridge Monitoring Built Around PHAC Guidelines

Designed around the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) National Vaccine Storage and Handling Guidelines: continuous logging, a probe buffered to behave like a vaccine vial, and alarms that reach the right person at 3 a.m. For a single vaccine or medication fridge, EDGE Pharma One WiFi does all three with one buffered, NIST-traceable probe.

Ethanol-Buffered Probes

Each probe sits in a vial of food-grade ethanol (food-grade glycol on request) that mimics the temperature of real vaccine vials, so a quick door opening does not trigger a false alarm.

Precision Control

High accuracy sensing (±0.5 °C / ±0.9 °F) across critical vaccine storage ranges (2 °C to 8 °C / 36 °F to 46 °F).

Replaceable Low Cost Sensors

Easily swap with new sensors with fresh NIST certs. No need to replace the whole device or send to an expensive calibration lab. Automatic email reminders of expiry included.

Master Cloud Core

The software toolkit built to support GxP record keeping, with granular control. Configurable alarm delays, plus excursion reports and on-demand PDF logbooks (Premium, first year included), keep your pharmacy audit-ready.

Critical Alerts

Zero Missed Alarms.
Your Whole Team Alerted.

Never miss a critical threshold breach again. Our system delivers instant, real-time localized alerts via Push Notifications, SMS, Email, and direct Phone calls. Every alarm reaches everyone the device is shared with at the same time (unlimited recipients with Premium, included the first year), so action is taken before operational loss occurs. Configurable alarm delays prevent false alerts during routine door openings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are MaxLinc loggers NIST-traceable, and do they support GUI-0069 and 21 CFR Part 11 audits?+

Every external probe ships with a NIST-traceable calibration certificate, valid 3 years in use (5 years on the shelf), and the cloud keeps time-stamped PDF records with excursion duration and corrective-action fields. That combination supports Health Canada GUI-0069 vaccine-storage documentation and the audit-trail expectations of FDA 21 CFR Part 11; final acceptance is always your inspector's decision.

What temperature range do they cover for vaccine fridges, freezers, and ultra-cold storage?+

EDGE Pharma's NIST-traceable probes are built for vaccine refrigerators at 2 to 8 °C (36 to 46 °F); their published range starts at -20 °C (-4 °F). For freezers, the EDGE Thermo's external probes read down to -55 °C (-67 °F). Ultra-cold (-70 °C / -94 °F) and dry-ice storage are below the range of our loggers. Tell us your target range and we will confirm the right probe before you order.

How fast will I be alerted if a fridge goes out of range overnight, and how are alerts delivered?+

Temperature is logged continuously, and the moment a reading crosses your high or low limit the cloud sends a real-time alert by SMS, voice call, push notification, and email to unlimited recipients with Premium (included the first year). On USB-C power, the Cellular model also sends a power-outage alert by push, email and text within minutes (at its next recording) and keeps reporting even if the building's WiFi drops with the power.

Is there a monthly subscription?+

No monthly fee on WiFi models: the first year of Premium is included, then the free Standard tier keeps live data, every alarm and 45 days of history (Premium, with advanced reports, full history and sharing with new people, is about $17.78/year, about $1.48/month, billed annually). Cellular models include the first year of data, then about $26.67/year (about $2.22/month), billed annually. Each probe's NIST-traceable certificate is valid 3 years in use (5 on the shelf), and when it lapses you swap in a low-cost replacement probe. The cloud emails you before each certificate expires.

Can I monitor multiple fridges and give my pharmacy team and auditors their own access?+

Yes. A single EDGE Pharma Two unit monitors two fridges independently, and you can deploy as many units as you need under one dashboard. You can share role-based access so pharmacists, technicians, and auditors each see exactly what they should, with the full logged history available for download anytime.

Does this work for clinics and physician offices?+

Yes. A clinic with one vaccine fridge usually needs one EDGE Pharma One, and two side-by-side fridges can share one EDGE Pharma Two. Alarms reach the whole team by call, text and email, and the time-stamped records are ready to show a public-health inspector. For a vaccine freezer, tell us its setpoint and we will confirm the right probe before you order.
