Thermo King Lease Assist and TouchLog data logger: Extending the Connected Solutions  portfolio

Thermo King®, a leader in transport temperature control solutions for a variety of mobile applications and a brand of Ingersoll Rand, is expanding its Connected Solutions portfolio with Lease Assist and TouchLog data logger.

Lease Assist offers leasing and rental companies one platform to access data and insights needed to optimize and manage their operations more efficiently. This includes asset localization, real time engine hours for accurate billing purposes, and data showing how customers use their refrigerated unit, which helps manage unit’s maintenance and lifetime.

The Thermo King TouchLog independent data logger delivers reading accuracy of 0.5K between -25 degrees Celsius and +8 degrees Celsius, which is particularly important for companies transporting temperature sensitive products like pharmaceuticals. TouchLog provides users with flexible export options and an intuitive, touch-screen interface, capturing data and offering quick printouts or downloads for full visibility of the cargo’s temperature condition.

 

The new Lease Assist and TouchLog solutions signify another step in our journey to grow the Thermo King Connected Solutions portfolio and make the refrigeration units’ and trailer’s data work for our customers. With Connected Solutions, our customers can operate smarter and more efficiently, turning data into practical intelligence and a competitive edge. – Raluca Radu, Connected Solutions product manager at Thermo King
