The Promolog wireless process and temperature data acquisition system is an innovative, modular, monitoring system giving the user freedom from cables and connectors.

Its flexibility allows the user to easily add new sensors and move equipment.

The Promolog system is aimed towards applications such as, cold storage, laboratories, furnaces, ovens etc.

A simple Promolog system can comprise: trend analysis software, which as standard can accommodate unlimited input sensors; an RTR970 data receiver, which is connected to the PC via serial or USB port; and IP67 field mounted temperature or signal transmitters which can transmit data up to 300 metres, with an accuracy of up to 0.2% of scale and a battery life of up to 5 years.

The measurement and transmit time is variable down to 1 minute intervals.

The RTR970 receiver, receives the data and delivers it to the PC.

If the PC is switched off or the connection is lost, the RTR970PRO receiver can store up to 150,000 samples which would be automatically uploaded to the PC on power up or reconnection.

The software offers real time and historic data access, with trending and bargraph displays.

Remote access servers are available and all input measurements can have upper and lower thresholds which can trigger alarm outputs.
