NODE meets all the requirements for the CDC’s Vaccines for Children (VFC) Program with 24/7 monitoring. Download the free ThermoWorks app and get instant notifications, view Min/Max temperatures and archive your critical data for recall, reporting and compliance.
NODE is as easy to setup as pairing your Bluetooth headphones and uses your existing Wi-Fi to send readings to the ThermoWorks Cloud for daily monitoring of all locations and devices with a convenient dashboard to always be in the know. ThermoWorks gives you control of all devices, users and permissions, and locations.
NODE Buffered Temperature Probe Kit comes with everything you need to install in your fridges and freezers. Each kit includes a buffered Pro-Series probe (or 2 probes for the 2-channel model) to simulate pharmaceutical items held in cold environments while preventing momentary air circulation from opening doors that can affect the accuracy of ambient temperature readings.
Each NODE kit includes a NIST-traceable certificate of calibration that ensures that the device was calibrated in a calibration laboratory and was compared to temperature standards that are traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) so you know that it’s accurate out of the box.

NODE FAQ
Q: Does NODE come with probes?
A: Yes, it depends upon the model. Waterproof Pro-Series Probes are included in both TX-5443-WH (1 buffered probe included) and TX-5444 (2 buffered probes included). And both of those models accept any Pro-Series Probes.
Q: Can NODE be permanently powered?
A: Yes. NODE has a standard 5-volt power adapter and cable included in the box. Can also be battery powered.
Q: What happens if the power goes out? Do I still get my data?
A: NODE will hold 100 readings in memory and will transmit the data when an internet connection is restored.
Q: How are notifications managed with NODE?
A: Notifications can be set up in the app or cloud. In the free cloud tier push notifications are sent to your smart device as an app notification (the app does not need to be open for notifications to be received). Upgrade to a paid tier to have SMS and email notifications sent to all team members based on their specific permissions.
Q: Does NODE have an audible alarm?
A: No. But you will receive alerts through ThermoWorks App/Cloud on your phone and/or web browser. There is an alarm bell on the display of NODE that indicates an alarm state.
Q: Why can’t I see my data in ThermoWorks App/Cloud immediately after set up?
A: NODE will transmit data on the selected Transmission Interval (default set to 30 minutes). To force a transmission, press and hold the SEND button for 3 seconds.
Q: Is there a way to integrate with NODE?
A: You can integrate NODE into your own existing IoT infrastructure via MQTT server. Contact sales for more information.
Q: Are the probes that are included with NODE fully waterproof?
A: Yes, the included probes are fully submersible for use in aquariums, outdoors, and wet commercial environments.
Q: How long will NODE typically last on battery power?
A: One year is typical with a 5-minute Temp Check Interval and 1-hour Transmission Interval. Battery life may be less or more if these intervals are adjusted. The app and cloud will make you aware of these times. Remember, NODE can be permanently powered with the included AC adapter or any standard 5V adapter.
Q: What is the Temp Check Interval?
A: How often NODE wakes to check temperatures against the alarms and update the display. If an alarm state is found during the Temp Check Interval a transmission is triggered and notifications sent if they are enabled.
Q: What is the Transmission Interval?
A: How often NODE transmits temperature data to the ThermoWorks Cloud.
Q: Can I force a transmission in between the transmission intervals?
A: Yes. Press and hold the SEND button for 3 seconds to initiate a transmission. Any pending updates that are queued up for the next transmission are sent during a forced transmission.
Q: How often does NODE update the readings on each channel?
A: The temperature reading(s) is updated at each Temp Check interval and the display automatically switches to the next channel for multi-channel NODEs. Alternatively, pressing the SEND button switches the display to the next channel, updates the temperature reading, and performs a Temp Check.
Q: Can I use NODE in my country?
A: NODE has been registered and approved for use in the USA, Canada, EU, Australia, and New Zealand.
Q: What Wi-Fi restrictions are there for setting up NODE on my Wi-Fi?
A: NODE uses the 2.4GHz band. Most routers have 2.4GHz as an available band for use with specific devices. Our technical support team is available with extended hours to help with any NODE setup questions: Mon-Fri, 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.; Sat, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Q: Is NODE VFC compliant?
A: Yes, NODE is compliant with the CDC’s Vaccines for Children program when using the ThermoWorks App and Cloud.
Q: Can I use NODE to monitor my restaurant’s walk-in fridge?
A: Yes. NODE would be ideal to monitor all cold holding areas. Set your alarm limits and NODE will send you a notification if the temperature exceeds your alarm conditions. Call our commercial sales team for help finding the best solution for your application.
Q: What is the accuracy of NODE?
A: NODE has a system accuracy (meter and probe) of ±0.9°F (±0.5°C) over its full range with the supplied probes in the correct probe ports. NODE uses Pro-Series probes and can be interchanged; however, system accuracy will be ±0.9°F (±0.5°C) from 32 to 77°F (0 to 25°C), ±1.8°F (±1.0°C) full range.
Q: How do I recalibrate NODE?
A: For highest accuracy, NODE probes should be system calibrated at ThermoWorks A2LA accredited calibration laboratory. We recommend a recalibration interval of 1 year.
