Current Product Line

1. The DaqLink Line - 4-channel multi-probe standalone data logger
2. The DataNet and Mini DataNet Line - Intelligent ZigBee wireless data logging network
3. The MicroLog Line - Compact standalone temperature and humidity data loggers, with external sensor support
4. The MicroLite Line - Low cost portable temperature data logger with direct USB connection
5. The DaqPRO Line - Portable high resolution graphic data acquisition system 

The DaqLink Line

Specifically designed to incorporate the needs of field logging, the DaqLink data logger enables reliable, accurate and continuous data monitoring.

The DaqLink built-in sensors support standard temperature and humidity environment monitoring needs and an extensive range of data acquisition requirements are also accommodated with four external sensor inputs for PT-100, Thermocouple J, K and T, 0-1 V, 0-50 mV, 4-20 mA, Contact, Frequency and Pulse Counter. This broad range of universal inputs allows for multiple combinations of sensors specific to customers’ applications.

The DataNet Line

The DataNet is a 16-bit data logging system with 4 inputs for direct  measurement and recording of PT-100, thermocouple, voltage 0-1 V, current 4-20 mA, frequency and pulse. Data transmission from units to the central computer utilizes the ZigBee wireless telemetry protocol.

ZigBee wireless protocol uses a 2.4 GHz license free frequency RF band. Each DataNet unit can also serve as a transmission repeater to neighboring units, forming a reliable mesh network of up to 65,000 units.

 The MicroLog Line

MicroLog 8-bit and 10-bit compact data logging solutions provide two low cost portable units for general data monitoring and recording. Temperature and temperature & humidity internal sensor models also connect to a selected range of external sensors.

The MicroLite Line

Small data logger for monitoring and recording temperature. MicroLite is the ultimate plug and record data logger. Despite the compact design MicroLite data is clearly displayed on the logger's numeric screen. In addition, the stored MicroLite data can be downloaded automatically to the free MicroLab Lite software. The MicroLite has been dustproof and waterproof tested to meet highest market standards (IP 68). To further ensure easy global usage, the battery is easily replaceable since it is a standard model used worldwide.

The product is designed for ultimate application accessibility whether mobile or static. Typical applications for this product include transportation as well as warehousing of food, drugs and hi-tech equipment.
  

 The DaqPRO Line

For a wide variety of process control and monitoring, where immediate feedback and data recording are required. The DaqPRO is a battery operated portable and graphic data logger, capable of sampling, processing and displaying measurements without connecting to a computer. Designed to serve the needs for professional data loggers, DaqPRO is a professional, cost-effective, compact and stand-alone data logging system that can be used with a wide variety of applications. This 16-bit, high-resolution, eight-channel data logger offers graphic displays and analysis functions for measuring voltage, current and temperature in real-time.

Applications:
