Why buyers choose HLY

What you get from a factory rather than a trading company

We manufacture the hardware, write the firmware and run the cloud platform. Specification changes are an engineering decision here, not a supplier negotiation.

Research and development

Communication stack built in house

GSM, CDMA, UMTS, ZigBee, LoRa, WiFi, Bluetooth and NB-IoT are developed by our own team rather than sourced as finished modules, so protocol changes are handled in firmware.

Calibration

Three point factory calibration

Every USB PDF logger leaves the line with NIST traceable three point calibration, so the accuracy figure on the datasheet is the accuracy inside the container.

Reporting

Encrypted PDF, no software install

Your consignee plugs the logger into any computer and gets a tamper resistant PDF report. No driver, no licence, no IT ticket at the receiving warehouse.

Cloud platform

H7 platform with every real time device

Live readings, position data, alarm history, SMS and email notifications and full data export from one interface. Custom platform integration is available on request.

Customisation

OEM and ODM from the same line

Private label printing, custom housing, preset logging intervals, preset alarm thresholds and branded PDF report templates, produced alongside our standard range.

Product range

Single use and reusable in one catalogue

Disposable loggers for one way outbound freight and reusable loggers for closed loop routes, from one supplier with a single consistent report format.

Frequently asked questions

Buying data loggers from HLY

The questions our sales team answers most often, from first enquiry through to the first production order.

What is the difference between a single use and a reusable data logger?

A single use logger such as the M501 is started once, records for the length of the shipment, produces its PDF report at the destination and is then discarded. It suits one way freight where the device will not come back to you.

A reusable logger such as the M502-TH has a replaceable battery and an LCD display, and can be redeployed on the next shipment without reconfiguration. Reusable devices cost more per unit but less per shipment on closed loop routes.

Do I need to install software to read the report?

No. Our USB PDF loggers generate an encrypted PDF report the moment the device is connected to a computer, so nothing is installed at the receiving end. For real time devices, data is available in the H7 cloud platform through any browser and can also be exported locally through the USB port.

Are the loggers calibrated before shipping?

Yes. Our USB PDF loggers are supplied with NIST traceable three point factory calibration. If your quality system requires an individual calibration certificate per unit, tell us at the quotation stage so we can confirm the correct configuration for your order.

Can you supply data loggers under our own brand?

Yes. We offer both OEM and ODM. That covers private label printing, custom housing, preset logging intervals and alarm thresholds, branded PDF report templates, and integration with your own cloud platform instead of ours. Send us your specification and we will confirm what is feasible and what the tooling implications are.

What is the minimum order quantity?

The minimum order quantity is 5 pieces across our entire data logger range, including the M501, M502-TH, M371 and M381. That low threshold lets you run a real trial on one lane before committing to volume.

OEM and ODM orders that require custom housing, private label printing or firmware changes carry a higher minimum, since tooling and setup are involved. Contact our sales team with your model, quantity and destination for pricing and lead time.

How long can a real time logger run on one shipment?

It depends on upload frequency and battery capacity. The M371 and M381 in standard 2000 mAh form run around 30 days uploading hourly, or 50 days uploading every two hours. The XL versions with 4000 mAh reach roughly 60 and 100 days on the same intervals. Full figures are listed on each product page.

Which model should I choose for pharmaceutical shipments?

If you only need proof of condition on arrival, a USB PDF logger is sufficient and cheaper per shipment. If you need to intervene while the cargo is still in transit, choose a real time device so that an excursion triggers an SMS or email alert immediately rather than being discovered at delivery. Many pharmaceutical shippers run both, real time on high value lanes and USB PDF on the rest.

Do you ship internationally, and can the devices be used abroad?

We ship worldwide from Shenzhen. Real time models carry a built in SIM installed before dispatch, and the M381 uses a full band 4G module intended for global use. Tell us the destination countries and lanes involved so we can confirm network coverage before you order.

Can the loggers record humidity as well as temperature?

Yes. The M501, M502-TH, M371-TH and M381-TH all record relative humidity alongside temperature across a range of 0 to 100%RH. Temperature only variants are available in the real time range if humidity is not part of your compliance requirement.
