5/10 Channel 4-20MA / Thermistor Data Logger
The DT4205: 5/10 Channel 4-20mA Transmitter Data Logger/Thermistor Data Logger is a low cost, battery powered data logger, designed for reliable, unattended monitoring of up to 10 channels which may be any mix of 4-20mA sensors or thermistors.
Overview
Overview
The DT4205 is ideal for remote locations or instruments that require frequent reliable data recording and connects to most instruments with 4-20mA sensors.
Data logger setup and data collection is done using an Android-enabled handheld device or a laptop. DT Logger Host Software is also included.
The DT4205 can also be upgraded with an optional radio kit and antenna to incorporate it into an RSTAR or DT LINK wireless system (see separate brochures). The DT4205 can also be added to an RSTAR Affinity radio network to complete backwards compatibility requirements.
Product Features
- Battery powered (Lithium 'C' or 'D' cell) for remote sites
- Compatibility with most 4-20mA sensors
- Option for radio antenna for incorporation into an RSTAR system or DT LINK
- Weather resistant NEMA 4X (IP66) enclosure
- Compatible with most spreadsheet software
