Datalogger system expandable

8 October 2003 Test & Measurement

Enviromon is a complete standalone data logger system from Pico Technology. It automatically measures and records temperature humidity and other parameters. Enviromon is both flexible and economical. One can start off just recording a single temperature and expand to monitor 60 or more sensors spread around a site. The logger can operate standalone continuously.

An Enviromon network can be made up of a number of separate modules: one simply chooses the modules needed to do the job. There are four main sections to the system: logger; converters; sensors; and alarms.

The network is a four-wire cable that carries power and data between the logger, converters and optional equipment like remote alarms. The logger can be attached anywhere along the network cable.

For most applications, low cost telephone style cable is used. This allows operation with 400 m of network cable between the logger and the furthest sensor. With thicker cable, this distance can be increased to a kilometre or more.
