From risks to compliance: The 8 reasons to use the testo Saveris 1 system
With testo Saveris 1 you use resources more efficiently
With the testo Saveris 1 data monitoring system, you save time and money every day – noticeably and continuously!
Optimized staff deployment
- Measured values are read, stored and documented fully automatically.
- Important data does not have to be searched for, but is available at the touch of a button
- Protocols are sent automatically.
Reduced material costs
- No paper and no filing cabinets
- All data is stored securely and accessible at any time in the database or on the server
- In the event of an audit, all information is available in no time.
Higher productivity
- The digital probes of the data loggers from the testo Saveris 1 system can be changed during operation.
- Ability to calibrate without stopping the system and interrupting the measurement.
Lower hardware costs
- The data logger can monitor up to four measuring points simultaneously. In this way, you can use fewer data loggers and reduce your costs accordingly.
Possibility of integration of additional measurement parameters through a digital-to-analog converter
The situation
- Monitoring of quality-related parameters generates data that must be collected, transferred, interpreted and documented.
- Every single step is associated with the possibility of making mistakes, especially when there is a change in the environment and human intervention.
The risks
When reading and documenting manually, the following problems often occur:
- Reading errors
- Wrong conclusions
- Forgotten signatures
- Intentional false entries
The solution
- testo Saveris 1 seamlessly automates these critical work steps.
- This minimizes sources of error and reduces risks.
Important for the pharmaceutical sector: A recommendation from the World Health Organization (WHO) states that in order to ensure data integrity, advanced technologies should be used to minimize risks.
With testo Saveris 1, you avoid critical events
What can happen?
When working with temperature-sensitive products or processes, as well as in a regulated environment, critical situations can constantly arise:
- Violation of preset limit values
- System disturbances (e.g. in the event of a power or network failure)
How do you learn about it?
If you use tracking devices that require manual data reading, you won't notice the malfunction until it's too late:
- Sensitive goods may be irretrievably destroyed.
- Considerable communication efforts are made, staff are committed and a lot of money is spent.
That's why testo Saveris 1
With testo Saveris 1, you are informed immediately if a situation requires your intervention:
- Via SMS and/or email
- Early intervention allows for timely countermeasures before irreparable damage occurs.
Reliable reports
- To get more out of your measured values, you need to be able to easily generate measurement logs and analyze them
- The Testo Saveris 1 Cockpit can be used to generate a large number of protocols for various applications, directly on demand or automatically and send them by email.
- Protocols for audit needs (compliant with 21 CFR part 11) are created just as easily
In this way, testo Saveris 1 takes over a large part of your routine activities, and you can use the saved time even more productively.
Flexible data access
- With the testo Saveris 1, your measured values are always with you – anytime, anywhere
- Independent access to the platform using all devices with Internet
- Alarms can be acknowledged in the same user-friendly way.

Built for almost any application
The testo Saveris 1 system was designed and implemented in collaboration with industry and research experts. Extremely precise measuring technology, intuitive software and various services will help you to carry out your work quickly, efficiently and in accordance with the current regulations.
Smooth processes and convenient documentation
Important climatic parameters must be monitored in medical, biotechnical, chemical and pharmaceutical laboratories and clean rooms. This is the only way to protect sensitive samples and maintain a high standard of quality. Temperature is the most critical parameter to monitor. Humidity and pressure are parameters that also require control, in accordance with the standards.
Safe production of sensitive pharmaceutical products
If temperature-sensitive goods such as pharmaceuticals, food products or lithium batteries are manufactured and stored under inappropriate environmental conditions, their quality and performance may be impaired. In most cases, internationally valid standards provide prescriptions for monitoring and documenting ambient conditions in a tamper-proof manner.
More security during storage and transport
In the storage and logistics of goods of all kinds, there are certain requirements when it comes to temperature control. This applies to the pharmaceutical industry, the food sector, logistics and industrial companies in general. The reason: Monitoring is the only way to ensure that product quality and safety are not compromised.
Security for hospitals and pharmacies
In healthcare, a variety of measurement solutions are required to control environmental parameters to ensure patient safety and reduce the risk of product compromise and compliance violations. Whether in hospital operating theaters or in drug storage rooms, blood and tissue banks, hospital pharmacies, compliance must be observed when it comes to the production and storage of sensitive medications.
