Overview

The RSTAR Affinity Tilt Logger is an advanced monitoring solution that accurately measures inclination in various applications. Seamlessly integrating with the RSTAR Affinity Data Platform, it provides continuous data insights, analysis, and alerting. With its robust construction, this logger is designed to withstand demanding environments and ensure long-lasting performance. It is compatible with existing infrastructure monitoring systems with an RSTAR Affinity Gateway already deployed, making it easy to incorporate into your current monitoring program.

Equipped with a long-lasting battery, it can operate for years autonomously. The battery is field replaceable without losing measurement continuity.

With options for internal and external antennas, as well as horizontal and vertical mounting, it provides flexibility to suit your monitoring requirements. At 40mm (1.6in) height, it is also well suited for applications requiring a low-profile sensor such as Railway Track monitoring.

The RSTAR Affinity Tilt Logger offers ample storage capacity for continuous data collection, ensuring no valuable information is lost. Its intuitive interface allows for easy setup and configuration, facilitating quick deployment and hassle-free operation. The user-friendly RSTAR Affinity mobile application allows for easy configuration, management, and continuous monitoring of the tilt logger, streamlining the installation workflow.
