WeighMed

by Atrax

WeighMed by Atrax is a smart, real-time monitoring solution designed for precise measurement of liquid nitrogen levels in Dewar tanks using integrated weigh-scale technology. Built with wireless connectivity and seamless cloud integration, the system enables remote access and management of tank data from anywhere. Wall-mounted displays offer clear visualisations of data, making it easy to oversee multiple tanks simultaneously. Its wireless setup simplifies both installation and ongoing maintenance, while the scalable architecture makes it well-suited for large-scale operations. By delivering accurate and timely data, WeighMed supports safer handling and more efficient management of liquid nitrogen across a range of applications.

A new standard in liquid nitrogen tank monitoring with cloud-connected data.

The Project

The project team works side-by-side with the client to ensure product functionality, marketability and usability are resolved through proof of concept prototypes. These are tested and refined to ensure all aspects of the solution are understood, key risks are identified and project goals are achieved.

THINK

InFact engaged with a Fertility Clinic’s team of embryologists and technical staff to scope the primary requirements and gain insights about the operational demands and inherent risks of the system. Low power, long life local connectivity with cloud activated alerts were fundamental to the system.
The introduction of a new, innovative WiFi 6–embedded hardware stack - featuring a fully secure local and cloud server with device- and application-based UI/UX - required the broader InFact multidisciplinary team to architect and deliver.
The team prototyped and tested the system at scale within the clinical environment and were able to make refinements to the design and functionality throughout the development. Resulting in a system being user-friendly and designed to meet the needs of technicians and clinicians.

LISTEN

Atrax identified a critical need in fertility clinics for reliable and wireless monitoring of liquid nitrogen levels in Dewar tanks. Traditional methods require embryologists to manually check the levels weekly with no knowing if a tank failed, posing risks to the preservation of invaluable biological samples. Atrax collaborated with InFact to develop a weigh-scale system to monitor the dewar tank levels, designed to reliably and wirelessly determine liquid nitrogen levels. The WeighMed solution would be cloud-connected, providing different stakeholders with the user specific information on demand.

OUTCOME

WeighMed has significantly changed the operational dynamics of Fertility Clinics and has significantly reduced the mental stress load on staff.
Eliminating manual level monitoring and providing low-level tank alerts along with visual status of evaporation rates and dewar tank interactions across 75+ tanks has allowed the clinics to refine their processes and provide stakeholders with more confidence.
The collaborative efforts invested in the scoping, design and engineering of the WeighMed system has delivered a highly functional, user friendly and manufacturable system - making it a valuable addition to fertility clinics worldwide.
