Abstract: A system for monitoring the lyophilization process of a product in containers (4, 4a, 4b) arranged inside a lyophilization chamber, including a temperature measurement system (6) associated with each container housed inside (10) the lyophilization chamber, capable of surveying local temperature data for each container. The system includes a wireless communication system (8) for the surveyed temperature data and a processing module (16) for said data, located externally to the lyophilization chamber, programmed to determine at least one parameter indicative of the progress of the lyophilization process not measured by the measurement system, through the use of a predetermined representation model of the process, capable of correlating a local temperature value of the container with the parameter.

Abstract: An optical transducer adapted to detect external mechanical actions or forces acting comprising at least one sensing optical path (5) adapted to transmit at least one sensing optical signal (b?) and to emit at least one sensing output electrical signal (d) along with at least one reference path (4) adapted to emit at least one output electrical reference signal (e). Moreover, at least one portion (5?) of the at least one optical path (5) is adapted to be exposed to external mechanical actions or forces, so that the transmission of the sensing optical signal (b?) through the sensing optical path can be modified as a result of the mechanical actions or forces, so that a phase shift between the sensing electrical signal (d) and the reference electrical signal (e) is generated.
