Testo 184 H1 Transport Data Logger (Humidity & Temperature)

Testo 184 H1 Overview

The testo 184 H1 rides with the shipment and logs humidity and temperature from 1 minute to 24 hours per reading. On arrival, the LEDs and display show whether a limit was crossed, and plugging it into a USB port opens a PDF report, with no software to install. It holds up to 60,000 readings, and its user-exchangeable battery lasts up to 500 days. It meets GxP and HACCP requirements, supports 21 CFR Part 11 records when used with testo ComSoft CFR software, and is made by an ISO 9001-certified manufacturer.

Who the Testo 184 H1 is for

The Testo 184 H1 suits shippers and receivers of humidity-sensitive goods (fresh produce, medicines, cut flowers, electronics) who need proof that a consignment stayed inside agreed limits. The receiver presses no buttons and installs no software: a glance at the LEDs or display shows whether a limit was broken, and plugging the logger into a USB port opens a ready-made PDF report.

Accuracy and limits from the testo 184 H1 data sheet (07.2022):

• Temperature ±0.5 °C from 0 to +70 °C and ±0.8 °C from -20 to 0 °C
• Humidity ±1.8 %RH + 3% of reading at +25 °C (5 to 80 %RH), with 0.1 %RH resolution
• Operating range -20 to +70 °C, so it is not meant for deep-frozen loads below -20 °C
• IP30 housing of 44 × 12 × 97 mm and 45 g

How a trip is handled:

• The configuration file, manual and report are stored on the logger itself, so set-up needs no download or install
• The Start button begins recording and Stop ends it
• The battery is user-exchangeable, so the logger can be reused trip after trip
• For CFR 21 Part 11 records, testo names ComSoft CFR software V4.3 SP2 or higher; HACCP International certifies the logger

For temperature only there is the Testo 184 T1, and the Testo 184 G1 adds shock logging. For storage rooms rather than trucks, see the Testo 174 H. Browse all temperature and humidity data loggers or the Testo brand page.

Testo 184 H1 FAQ

Questions shippers ask about the 184 H1:

• Does the receiver need software to read the Testo 184 H1? No. Plug it into a USB port and it produces a PDF report with the readings and alarm status. ComSoft software is only needed for archiving or CFR 21 Part 11 work.
• How long does the battery last? About 500 days at +25 °C with a 15-minute rate, per testo. The CR2450 cell is user-exchangeable (spare 0515 5841).
• How many readings does it hold? 60,000 values in total, shared between temperature and humidity, at any rate from 1 min to 24 h.
• Can it go in a freezer truck? Only down to -20 °C. For colder loads look at the testo 184 T-series temperature loggers.

Why buy the Testo 184 H1 from MME

Tell MME what you ship, the temperature and humidity limits and how long the trip lasts. We will confirm whether the testo 184 H1 fits or whether another testo 184 model is the better match, and then quote. Download the testo 184 H1 datasheet (PDF)PDF
