Description

82-P9008/F DATALOG 8, 8 channels stand alone multipurpose data logger battery operated with rigid carrying case suitable for use on field.

DATALOG 8 is a stand alone data logger for general purpose acquisition, processing and data storage for laboratory and site applications.

Differently from the laboratory version, this model is housed inside a rigid carrying case with a long-life rechargeable battery. It is particularly suitable for field applications where mains power supply is not available.

DATALOG 8 features a wide 6” touch screen colour graphic display and a separate display for battery status. The unit records and monitors in real time the measurements requested by different tests, for example:

Plate bearing test apparatus (electronic versions)
Rock shear box apparatus (digital version model)
In-situ determination of stress, deformability and resistance of masonry walls with flat jacks
… and many other tests
