The Patented and NSF approved cubes work by simulating refrigerated food. Historically, sensors are used to monitor and/or control refrigeration by measuring the temperature of the circulating air. However air temperature fluctuates dramatically, and is a poor indication of actual food temperature. Food Safety (temperature control) Regulations 1995 recommends the use of food simulants when monitoring temperatures, and the cubes follow these guidelines giving accurate food temperatures.

Cubes are used in 2 ways:

Food Safety (temperature control) Guidelines 1995
Fitted to the Temperature probe the fridge/freezer will display the actual food temperature. If fitted to the temperature probe of a monitoring system such as BT Redcare’s ColdCall, or UMP’s logggit, the recorded temperature will be that of the food as per the Food Safety Guidelines.

Energy Savings
Fitted to the thermostat the cube significantly reduces the frequency of refrigeration cycles, as the fridge/freezer will change its cycle from air-based to food-based, resulting in electricity savings of between 15-35%. A knock-on effect of this is less noise pollution, less maintenance and longer life expectancy of the equipment. Food safety is not compromised.
