Lithium Battery Solutions for Cold Chain Temperature Data Loggers
Low-temperature performance, ultra-long runtime, and stable power for pharmaceutical & food cold chain monitoring
Cold Chain · Data Logger · Custom Lithium Battery
Industry Background
Cold chain logistics plays a crucial role in pharmaceutical transport, vaccine distribution, fresh food delivery,
and biological material shipments. Modern temperature data loggers verify that sensitive goods stay within safe
temperature limits throughout the logistics cycle, supporting real-time monitoring and regulatory compliance.
Key Pain Points
- Wide operating temperature range (–20°C to +40°C)
- Long recording duration for multi-day or multi-week shipments
- Ultra-low power consumption with periodic wireless transmission bursts
- Small, lightweight form factor constraints
- Regulatory and pharmaceutical compliance requirements
Solution Value
A customized PKNERGY battery module for temperature data loggers can deliver:
- Long-term stable performance using Li-ion 18650 or pouch cells
- Excellent low-temperature characteristics for cold storage environments
- Compact, lightweight pack designs tailored to your enclosure
- Low self-discharge for extended standby and shelf life
- Reliable support for sensor + wireless communication loads

Technical Insights
- Cell Chemistry: Low-temperature NMC Li-ion is commonly used for rechargeable designs.
For one-time, ultra-long-term use cases, Li-SOCl2 may be considered depending on product strategy. - BMS / Protection: Voltage, current, and temperature cutoffs improve safety and stability.
Optional cold-charge protection helps avoid charging risks under low temperature conditions. - Mechanical Design: Moisture-resistant sealing and vibration-resistant welding support IP54–IP67 level design
goals (depending on enclosure and assembly). - Power Architecture: A 1S Li-ion system can support BLE, NFC, LoRa, or GSM data transfers with optimized
sleep-and-burst power profiles.
