MSR Data Loggers determine the causes of damage during transit


Case study Belimo Automation

The Swiss company Belimo Automation AG – worldwide leader for actuator and valve technology in heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems – has printed circuit board assemblies for heating, ventilation and climate controls produced in China and in the Philippines. The printed circuit boards stored in the containers in cardboard boxes and blister packaging are especially sensitive towards exposure to humidity. In particular, it is the slide switches and plug-in connectors on the printed circuit boards that would be damaged by excessively high moisture levels or even direct exposure to water.

Once a week a standard container, loaded with products for this company only, arrives in Switzerland, following an approximately six-week sea voyage and subsequent land transport.

Belimo decided to employ the MSR145data loggers in order to monitor and document the transport conditions.
