Temperature loggers record data on eight channels
Staff -- Test & Measurement World, 5/1/2006
Operating without the need for a dedicated PC or laptop, the USB-5201 and USB-5203 eight-channel temperature loggers from Measurement Computing offer live temperature monitoring, as well as the ability to record data to removable CompactFlash cards.
The USB-5203 logs data from thermocouples, RTDs, thermistors, and semiconductor temperature sensors, while the USB-5201 logs data from thermocouples only. Both devices let you set temperature alarms for controlling eight digital output lines. The 64-Mbyte CompactFlash card that comes with each unit stores over 2 million time-stamped temperature values from a single channel. CompactFlash cards with up to 2 Gbytes of storage capacity are optional.
You can retrieve data from the USB-5201 and USB-5203 by connecting it to a computer using the supplied USB cable or by placing the removable flash card into any standard CompactFlash card reader.
