The food industry is highly competitive: companies are under increasing pressure to improve productivity and profitability: so, to account for food quality problems, data loggers are now indispensible
Datalogger for pressure measurement
Exceptional long term stability and high over-pressure capability are features of the new SL963TD pressure data logger, ideal for applications where remote recording of pressure trends is required
In common with all Signatrol data loggers, the USB units are fully compatible with their standard cross-platform TempIT operating software, which provides a fully comprehensive data logging package.
The TempIT-LITE version can be down-loaded free of charge from the Signatrol web site.
This enables the loggers to be set up and the data read and displayed in graphical format.
As appropriate, data can be stored and retrieved at a later time.
The software can be up-graded to TempIT-Pro which provides various additional features such as data table view, export data to spreadsheet, email graphs, snap to trace, automated MKT (Mean Kinetic Temperature) and F0 calculations.
With the capability of recording up to 8000 data points and a measuring range of -10C to +85C, these loggers are ideal for a wide range of applications including the storage and transportation of sensitive goods and energy management monitoring in buildings, factories and warehouses.
The built-in battery lasts up to 10 years depending on sampling rates, and both units have a delayed start capability, allowing loggers to be pre-programmed up to one year in advance.
In addition to the delayed start feature, the SL52USB also has a "start when alarmed" function which inhibits data logging until the data logger has reached an alarm condition, making it ideal for temperature related fault finding.
The SL50 USB series are just part of the Signatrol extensive range of data loggers, mounting accessories and instrumentation ranging from low cost single channel versions up to laboratory precision multi-channel devices.
