Environmental Monitor.
The sensor layer of cold chain compliance — placed, configured, and validated by Vidmatics.

Audit-ready temperature records from the same platform that runs your fleet.
The Environmental Monitor (EM31) is Samsara's wireless sensor for cold chain and environmental compliance. It measures ambient temperature with factory-calibrated accuracy, supports an optional stainless-steel probe (ACC-EM-P1) for product-level or extended-range measurement, and reports through Samsara gateways so readings land in the same dashboard as the vehicle and trailer. Vidmatics places sensors where auditors expect them and configures the alerts before your first monitored load.
