Data Logger is an electronic device that is used to record and store data over time. It is either equipped with a built-in sensor or makes use of an external instrument and sensors for the accurate storing of data, also known as data logging.
Data Loggers are an essential tool in geotechnical instrumentation and structural & environmental monitoring. Encardio-rite offers a range of advanced data loggers that feature a wide operating temperature range, dependable stand-alone operation, and low power consumption. They are also compatible with many telecommunication options and support a variety of measurement and control applications.
Encardio-rite data logger offers the benefit of automatically collecting data (24 x 7) from several sensors installed in any kind of project. Data loggers with GSM/GPRS transmission can be programmed to measure from 5 seconds to 168 hours in linear mode. Once programmed, commissioned and activated, the data logger can be left unattended to measure and record data from sensors for the duration of the monitoring period. This allows for accurate remote monitoring and provides a reliable risk assessment of the project.
Encardio-rite provides data loggers with GSM Module as well as GPRS Transmission to suit various application areas.
The different models are:
Model ESDL-30 (Multi-channel Data Logger) - The Datalogger is designed to log data from sensors with an SDI-12 interface. Any sensor with an SDI-12 signal interface can be connected to the GPRS/GSM data logger. For example, sensors based on vibrating wire, resistance strain gauge or MEMS technology etc.
Model ESCL-12VT (Single-channel Data Logger) - ESCL-12VT is designed to collect data automatically from any vibrating wire sensor with an integral thermistor. It transfers the data to a cloud/private server through an in-built GPRS/GSM modem at set intervals. Its two-way communication facility reduces field cost and provides remote access to the data stored.
Model ESCL-10VT (Single-channel Data Logger) - The data logger is designed to monitor a single vibrating wire sensor (including temperature) such as a piezometer, pressure sensor, and crack meter or displacement transducer. The data logger can additionally monitor barometric pressure. It also has the provision to monitor rainfall using a tipping bucket rain gauge.
Encardio-rite GSM/GPRS Data Loggers are compact, battery enabled and equipped with an inbuilt internal memory for data storage. With internal batteries, the data loggers can be used for a longer duration at a remote location unattended. They are also easy to install, simple to use and user friendly. One simply needs to connect the sensors and configure them using the intuitive software without much hassle.
The data loggers can interface with any computer, laptop or mobile. They also have a provision to transmit the collected data to any remote server using a SIM (GPS/GPRS signal). The server can be a private server or a cloud server. Automatic collection and wireless transmission of data help in reducing field costs and provide easy access to near real-time data with early alarms via email or SMS.
