Fleet temperature monitoring devices from Radius
Stratus 79: Advanced refrigeration GPS tracker
The Stratus 79 is a GPS tracker designed for refrigerated fleets. It monitors reefer temperatures in real time, helping fleets protect temperature-sensitive goods and prevent spoilage.
The device connects to the reefer unit using a cable from the installation kit. It works with Carrier or ThermoKing refrigeration units, pulling temperature data directly from the source. This setup enables real-time temperature tracking from the reefer unit.
What reefer tracking monitoring tracks:
- Temperature monitoring: Box temperature, ambient air, set temperature, door status, fresh air status and alarm status.
- Reefer performance: Duration of electric power usage; battery voltage levels; electric or diesel operational mode; cumulative switch-on hours; total standby duration.
- Vehicle and driver behavior: Speeding; trip history; trip start/stop; idling; sudden braking; harsh braking; aggressive acceleration; sharp cornering.
- Engine diagnostics: Fault codes and operating modes.
- Location tracking: GPS tracking, Wi-Fi geofencing, cell tower triangulation and geofences with points of interest.

Real-time insights and alerts
Quickly view the status of your reefer container for better real-time visibility into your fleet.
- Continuous temperature monitoring: Use IoT sensors to track cargo temperature and reduce costly human errors in your supply chain.
- Instant alerts for reefer issues: Get alerts for temperature changes, low battery and reefer usage to maintain optimal conditions
- Detailed compliance reports: Access reefer data for audits and meet FSMA and ELD regulatory standards across your supply chain.
Compliance with regulatory standards for reefer fleet monitoring
Fleets transporting perishable products must follow U.S. laws like the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA). A reefer temperature monitoring system helps companies stay compliant by tracking temperatures, sending alerts and keeping records.
- Follows FSMA rules: Temperature monitoring ensures shipments remain within the correct range.
- Live tracking: Remote monitoring alerts fleets if conditions change.
- Automated recordkeeping: A temperature monitoring solution stores data for audits and compliance.
With an advanced monitoring system, fleets can follow regulations, protect shipments and reduce risks.
